SIDELIGHTS UPON WAR PUBLISHED New Instalment of British Diplomatic Documents is Taued London, Aug. 4--Important side- lights on the origins of the war are supplied in a new instalment of Brit- ish diplomatic documents covering the period from 1904 to 1906, issued under the title, "The testing of the entente. : Nbtable among the documents con- tained is a long secret memorandum by Sir Eyre Crowe, dated Jan. 1, 1907, examining the German Policy and action in Morocco and South Africa during the Boer war; also in Zanzibar, and the efforts to improve Anglo-German relations. Sir Eyre wrote: "The successors of Bismarck apparently regard it as their ultimate purpose to extract valuable concessions from England by offensive bluster and persistent nagging." He compared their attitude to Britain to that of a 'professional blackmailer.'" Attached to some of the documents are notes, penned by King Edward VII, showing that he had no illusions regarding the German feeling for Britain.

German statement that Britain had offered to conclude a defensive and offensive alliance with France against Germany. . A The documents include a pen poms trait of the ex-Kaiser written in 1906 by Sir Frank Lescelles, then British ambassador at Berlin, describing the ch as impullsive and fond of jokes which sometimes were taken seriously by those who did not un- derstand them. On one occasion Sir Frank made to the Kaiser a com- munication of an agreeable nature. The Emperor remarked, "The nood- les seem to have had a lucid inter- val." Asked whether he wished such a message conveyed to the British gov- ernment, the Kaiser translated the remark into diplomatic language and told the ambassador to say that he had received the communication with great interest and satisfaction. Sir Frank summed up with the conclusion that the Kaiser thought a "sabre-rattling, moustache-twirling" attitude befitting the ruler of a mighty Empire, but in reality he was animated by the most pacific senti- ments.
