ATTACK FEARED
DURING MOROCCAN CRISIS
RELATIONS BETWEEN ENGLAND
AND GERMANY
(Received Cay 13, 8.20 a. 111.)
BERLIN, May 12
The first admission in any German quarter that precautions hac 1 / been adopted on both sides last summer during the Morocco crisis emanated from Admiral von, Tirepitz in a speech before the Budget Committee. In acknowledging with particular satisfaction Mr Asqu.ith's declaration that an intention to attack Germany never existed, Admiral von Tirepitz remarked the fact that precautions were adopted by the military commanders, perhaps on both sides, was indisputable; but this was no proof of the positive intentions of the part of the Governments concerned.- He thought too highly of the British Admiralty to .believe that an idea that Germany would attack Great Britain had ever entered into its consideration.
