(By Associated rress.i
; Amsterdam, ;' Sept 15.-'-The t three
cablegrams v sent i by ' Count? Luxburg,
G erman minister to "' Argentina to the
Gerrnan ; foreign office, through 1 the
Swedish f legation) have finally been
permitted to be published in the Ger
rnan press. - j- -1 . ' ' ' .
y The ? Kbelnische Zeitung gays; that it
. is easy; to understand that the publi
cation of j these dispatches ; in Argen
tina ha.3 made an. unpleasant impres
sion and rjthat President' Wilson has
so f ar jprobabiy been successful with
his maneuver, but adds that they can
only, be rightly judged if it is not for
gotten that they were secret messages
in code,'; and if j the figure dispatches
of Entente diplomacy could be read
still more drastic expressions would
.-be Rencountered.'' X.S, tiiyi.
Regarding the "phrase in one; of
Count ; Iiuxburg!s dispatches r about
sinking steamships : without leaving a
trace, the paper lamely argues that
.the, expression " does riot mean sink
ing a ship , with all- hands,. , but so
sinking ; her : that '.military - mishaps
might: be avoided,' as for example,
concealing -the fact from other ships
that she was - tsurikr by a submarine,
and not by. a "mine. "
: ''It" is sself -evident," says' theKoel
nische -Zleltung,. "that the German
governnient :r cannot; be -heldV fespon-i
sible for the opinion of any Ohe of its
ministers.; If,, on the other hknd; the
Entente pressi attempts Tn :the j
patches, -to. accuse ' German- 'politics of
duplicity, ' or " the'. XSertoanl navy -4 of
atrocities,1 such 'conclusions must Im
press7 the unbiased nind as wilful ; ex-J
aggeration. We are- also confident
that the ' Argentine government will
not participate, and .we are equally

not merely express - itself in : words.
We demand, under all circumstances,
that-the' minister who forwards such
dispatches be recalled; as.; quickly as
possible. We should not put the Ar
gentine government :: before such : an
alternative,? but should , ourselves l un
dertake his recall. ; Aside from- the
international ' aspect of this incident
there is no occasion ..to revive mem
ories of our : numerous . diplomatic
heroics'" inv the course of this war by
permitting this episode much i longer
to engage public opinion.' Count Lux
burg should be permitted to disappear
