The decisive day was the 29th of July, 1914. On that day the Ger Irian chancellor, who had just re- turned from the Emperor at Pots- dam, sent for Sir E. Goschen, the British atitbassador at Berlin, and had a conversation with him which will always be memorable in lasted. The chancellor's'words revealed ,that Germany was pre- paring to attack Fance through Belgium, and he proceeded to pro- pose a bargain whereby Germany was to secure the neutrality of England in the impending war The terms of this proposed bar- , gain Were these (1) First, England was to stand aside while France was crushed. on the understanding that Germany "aimed at no terri- torial acquisitions at the expense of France}" Sirs E. Go Goch "ques- tioned his: Excellency about the French cdlonies and he said that could be so crushed as to lose her position as a great power and become subordinate to German policy. Altogether apart from that i 1 would be a disgrace for us to make this bargain with Germany at the expense of France, a dis- grace from which the ,country would never recover. The chan- cellor also in effect askcs us to bargain away whatever obligations or interest we have as regards the neutrality, of Belgium. We could not entertain that bargaini either." Sir Edward Grey went on as already stated, to suggest other terms on which good relations be- tween England and Germany might be secured. How Britain Became Involved The historic interview between the German. Chancellor and the British ambassador, and the Brit- ish Government reply's , to the chancellor's proposal show . how Britain was driven to take part in Chebyhoaor, war a h tor, b' 'y obligation. and by the interests of self de- fense.

Thus each case wasi left to be decided.' on its own merits. What, then, was the case as it exlsked 'in the critical days at the end, of ,T,uly and beginning' of Atigust? Franco, having no longer gsything to'' fear . from, l E�+gf ti'nd had, concea rated her 'fleet iiithe Beditelranean; 1 : Her 2aorth'ern easts we:e,unprotected S£r11iEd" Ward Grey's:,zopinidil'Was; "'that. if a foreign' fleet engaged n war which France had not sought' arid i'n which she had not been the aggressor, came down the English Channel and bombarded 'and hat - teed: the unprotected coasts of Fiance," we could not honorable "stand aside „ and see thio' going ori ypriieti-ally within sight of , our eyes,"rwith our arms folded.'' $ti'tish intef•ests:':pointed ' in the wine, direction. If Fnj;,landahad de Glared' her` intention of remaining neutral. Franc': ' might have wit's drawn 'her'' fleet from the ,Mtedit- erranean; and as we do, ,not keep a fleet there strong enough to deal alone with possible coni- binations our trade -routes and inter -imperial communications through that sea would have' been in-daaiger. Accordingly, on August 3, Sir Edward Grey was authorized by the -cabinet to give an assurance to France "that 'if the German fleet comes into the Channel or through the North Sea to under- take hostile operations against French_ coasts or shipping, the British fleet will give all the pro- tection in its power." This was not a declaration . of war,' but a co"tingent obligation to make war. The further • and final decision was caused by the action of Germany towards Bel- giuni. , The Case of Belgium. Belgium was constituted "an independent and perfectly neutral state" by treaties of 1831-2 and 1839. To those treaties Germany as well ,as,Gr'eat Britain was a .party. At the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war in 1870 gree government of Mr..Gladstone pro- posed a treaty 10 Prussia and to France providing that if the armies of either violated the neutrality of Belgium, Great Britian would co- operate with the other for its de- fense. Both countries assented. To this action Mr. Gladstone then and alt0ays attached high import ance. i "We do not think it would be right', he sass,' even if it were sale ,to announce that we would in any case stand by with folded arms and see actions'dooe which Would •- ,mount to a total extincion of pub- lic,right in Europe." I do not think • we could look on while the sacrifi am of die e dom and indepea- •dence was in course of consumma- tion. "There is also this 'further consideration ,the force of which we must all fedi most deeply and that is the common interests against the unmeasured aggrandisement of anyower whatever." p � et er. The same question -confronted. Mr. 4squith's government in 1911 and they took the same view of it. On' July - al Sir Edward Grey - in view of exalting treaties, asked both 'France and Germany:wheth er they were prepared to engage to respect neutrality of Belgium as long .as no other, power violates it On thsame day he "assumed," in a cominunication to Belgium. that the Belgian government in reply "expects and desires that other Powers; will observe land uphold her neutrality which she intends to maintain to the utmost of bur power." Feanee immediately gave Sir Edward Grey the desired as= surance. Germany gave no answ er. On Aug. 3 Germany addressed an ultimatum to Belgiuln saying that she would be treated as an enerny unless she consented to the viola- tion of her territory. Belgium "categorically refused this as an flagrant violation of the law of nations," and the King of the Bel- gians appealed_ in the following terms to King George; "Remem- bering the numerous proofs of Your Majesty's friendship and that of your predecessor and the friend ly attitude of England in 1870 end the proof of friendship you have just given us again. I make a supreme; appeal to the diplomatic intervention oft, ,Your Majesty's govern(nent to safeguard the ,in- tegrity i df -Belgium.'

"It may be said, I suppose that we might stand aside, husband our strength; and, whatever happened in the course of this war, at the end of it intervene with effect to put things right and to adjust them to our point of view. If in a crisis like this we ran away from those obligatrions of honor and in- terest as regal ds the Iiielgian treaty, I doubt whether whatevermaterial force we might have at the end of it would be of, very much value in the race of the re- spect that we should have lost At the end of this war, whether we leave- stood aside or whether we have been engaged in it, I do not believe for a moment -even if we had stood aside and remained aside -that we should be in a po- sition, a mataria'l position, to use our force decisively to undo what had' happened in..the course of the war, to prevent ,the whole of the west of Europe opposite to' us, if that had been the resuar df 'tire war, falling under the dominatio'o of a singlaepowet, and I am quite sure that our moral position would be such--" (The, 'rest of the sen- tence was lost, says the Times, in a loud outbarst of cheering.) A Conflict of Ideals. The conflict of ideals which is at stake in the .war appears very clearly in the 'conservations be- tween the British ambassador at; Berlin and the German ministers on that day when war was declar- ed ](Aug. 4.), 'The ambassador ask- ed again if G•s:many meant . to respect the neutrality of Belgium. The foreign secretary "at once re- plied that he was sorry Ito say that his answer must be No, as; in consequence of the Merman troops having crossed 'the'fron- tier that morning. Belgian neutral- ity had (already been' viojiated '' The minister explained that it was "a matter of life or death," The Imperial government had to "strike some decisive blow as early as ,possible," and therefore "had to advance into France by the quick- est and easiest way." The ambas- sador next saw the imeprial chan- cellor, who held England , solely responsible for the 'war; "just for a word, neutrality, a word which in war time had so often been dis- regarded, just for •a scrap of paper Great Britain was going to war." r11re ambassador replied that t.i her it was a matter o'f life a oi' death to keep her contac'ti fhe chancellor, "but at 'chat price will that compact have been kept? Has the British government thought of that?" "I hinted to his excellency, as ,plainly, as I could," writes the Bi itish anrbassader, "that fear ,b1 the consequenccstcould hardly be regarded as an e}Ccuse for 'break- ing solemn engagements" The German 'overnment„ by' their deeds in Bel luta, and '• by the -or.deabove dee, ed,' ave plainly h 1 n e Ir.
