S. and Germany Now in Print Washington, Aug. 17.—A more def- inite official statement of the real rea- son for the recall of Captain Karl Boy- Ed, Naval Attache and Captain Franz | von Papen, Milltary Attache, of the German Embassy at Washington, is obtainable from the new Furopean White Book just issued by the state department containing additional cor- respondence with belligerent govern- | ments relative to neutral rights and | — | duties. The real reason for their recall was | because of their ‘“‘connection with the | persons within the United States.” | This is officially admitted in the White | Book. It was generally suspected at the time of their recall that Boy-Ed and von Papen were :egarded by the Washington government as having had connection with “illegal” as well as ‘“‘questionable” acts. It was on December 1, Secretary Lansing had an interview with Count von Bernstorff, the Ger- man ambassador, in which the recall of the two attaches was requested. | None of the correspondence was giv: | en out at the time, but on the after- noon of December 3, in making the announcement that the recall of Cap- | tains Boy-Ed and von Papen had been requested, Secretary Lansing dictated | this statement: “On account of what this govern- ment considers improper activities in military and naval matters, this gov- ernment has requested the immediate 1915, that von Papen, as they are no longer ac- ceptable, or personae gratae, to this government.” Lansing to Bernstorfi.

The notes given out dates from December 4 to December 10, when, it now becomes known, Secretary Lansing found it necessary to send a sharp reiteration of his de- mand to the German ambassador for the recall of the two attaches. This note follows: “Department of State “Washington, D. C., Dec. 10, 1918. “My Dear Mr. Ambassador: “On December 1, I informed Your Excellency that Captain Boy-Ed, the naval attache of your embassy, and Captain von Papen, the military at- tache, were no longer personae gratae to my government and requested that the imperial governient immediately | recall the two attaches. “As ten days have passed without the request of this government being complied with and without communi- | cation from you on the subject other than your personal letter of the inst., which in no affected fact that the two attaches were now the un- way acceptable or presented a ground for | delay, I feel compelled to direct your attention to the expectation of this government that its request would be immediately granted. “I trust, my dear ambassador, that vou appreciate the situation and will urge upon your government a prompt compliance with the request in order that this government may mnot be { compelled to take action without awaiting the recall of the attaches, an action this government does not desire to take but will be forced to unless the imperial government meets the express wish of this gov- ernment without further delay it need not impress upon your Excel- lency the desirability of avoiding a circumstance which would increase the embarrassment of the present sit- uation.

His note of | December 11 on this point: pon the receipt of notice that his Majesty the Emperor and King has designated the successors of gentlemen,- and after the government of the United States has decided upon | their acceptability, it will be my vleasure to request the powers at war with the German Empire to provide safe conducts for their passage to the | United sStates.” Only two other notes of the series are given in the new White Book Both were from Secretary Lansing to | Count von Bernstorff. In one of these, dated December 15, 1915, Secretary | Lansing informed the German am- | bassador that the British and French Ambassadors had advised the state ‘(hlbnrlmanl that fe conducts will | be furnished to Captains Boy-Ed and “”n Papen for their return to Ger- | many, it be understood that they | will take the southern route to Tol- | llf\nd."
