The German Secret Service in America 1914-1918
Jones, John Price
World War, 1914-1918 -- Secret service -- Germany
Severity: Let's hear no more of "considerations of humanity,"
"cultural demands." Must impose indemnities on foes and take land in
Europe and overseas to lessen political power:
(a) In Europe for healthy colonization.
(b) Colonial: to supply raw materials and take finished products.
(c) Indemnities to be devoted to common social betterment of German
people.
_Internal._ Rehabilitation of farmer class by providing ample land.
Combat city evils.
(1) Opportunity provided by fate in this attack by our foes.
(2) France and Russia must cede land near our gates as punishment;
estates to German farmers.
(3) City evils to be remedied by better housing conditions; by war
indemnities, not single tax. (Cheap rents, tenants become owners.)
(Gift of fate through foes.) Old age pensions larger and at lower
period of age (65 years instead of 70).
_Overseas._ Take over colonies and settle by Germans to give economic
independence for imports and exports. This will give opportunities to
eliminate "intelligent proletariat" by use elsewhere.
_Belgium._ Conspiracy and conduct of people and Government show Belgium
not entitled to independence.
(1) All well-informed people in Germany say: "Belgium must cease to
exist."
(2) Impossible to take into German people with equal rights.
Rather leave with indemnity which must pay anyway. But we need the
coast against England.
Belgium to be property of Empire, Kaiser its Lord:
Belgium to lose its name.
Belgium to be divided into 2 parts: Walloons and Flemish.
Kaiser's officials to govern as dictators of province.
Belgians taken into Empire to have no political rights. All who object
may emigrate. Walloons unworthy of being "Germanized."
_France._ Must "bleed it white" so as never to be attacked again:
(1) i.e., indemnity and land. Land from Switzerland via Belfort,
Moselle, Epinal, Toul, Meuse, Verdun, Sedan, Charleville, St. Quentin
to Somme and Channel at Cayeux.
(2) France to take over and indemnify the present inhabitants. We get
the land sans dangerous people. Such expulsion immoral? Retribution.
Not bricht eisen! France'll be thankful for the population. Needs it.
(3) Ceded area to become military frontier, administered by dictator.
To be settled by Germans: discharged soldiers or war veterans' families.
(4) Toulon and environs to be made impregnable fortress on land and
seaside for base on the Mediterranean.
Rather forego all French territory than take with it the hostile
French population. Walloons to be kept in land only to furnish mass of
laborers, lest new German settlers become industrial laborers again.
_England._ Its world-rule must be ended! Can't formulate demands until
naval warfare decided. _Build ships with all your might!_
_Japan._ Must be punished for white race. Revenge.
_Russia._ Must be put _hors de combat_ by permanent weakening. We must
forcibly once more turn Russia's face towards East by curtailing its
frontiers as before Peter I's time. Then its pressure vs. Asia.
