just sufficient to permit making i

KING CONSTANTINE
SUBMARINE QUESTION NOT TOPIC
OF DISCUSSION IN OPEN
SESSION.
HERR BASSERMANN REPORTS
National Liberal Leader Emphasizes
Entente's Pressure on Neutral Pow
ers and Effort to Force Hellenic
People Into the Great War.
Berlin.-The most notable incident
at the opening of today's Reichstag
session was supplied by Major Besserf
man, leader of the National Liberals,
In his report from the budget com
mittee that although it had been un
able to reach a decision on the subma
rine question it had voted, 24 to 4.
against a discussion of the subject in
iOpen session.
Herr Basserman ran through a short
report of the general International
situation emphasizing particularly the
Entente's pressure on neutral powers'
and its efforts to force Greece into the
war, in connection with which he
expressed admiration for the attitude
of King's Constantine. He then read
the committee's recommendations.
"The committee occupied Itself with
a thorough discussion of the question
- of submarine warfare," the report
read. "the members of all parties and
the representat ives of the government
- participating. All the naval, technical,
military, ecnomic and politcal as'
pects were thoroughly investigated
and weighed.
"An agreement could not be reach
t ed in the committee, which therefore
refrained from making a decision.
t The committee recommends that the
Reichstag in Its deliberations abstain
j from a discussion of submarine war
fare. It bases this attitude upon the
3 Rtandpont that a thorough discussion
E of the naval, technical, military, eco
s nomic and political details Is impossi
r ble without injury to the interests of
the Fatherland, but, on the other hand,
y that without such thorough discussion
- the subject could not be completely
y cleared up."
e The speaker pleaded for (he aboli
if tion of the censorship. He said the
committee had received the Impression
i- that the "military situation everywhere
)- was satisfatorey and hopeful."
s Herr Naumann alluded to the
r causes of the war. insisting that the
s only means of avoiding resort to arms
I- would have been direct communication
C- between Vienna and St. Petersburg,
)f which was rendered Impossible by the
e continuation of the Russian mobiliza
tion.
