RULES FOR OTHERS CURIOUS FREEDOM NEUTRALITY VERSION WORDS BESIDES ARMS SUPPRESSING CRITICS WARNING BY GOEBBELS (Elec. Tel. Copyright— United Press Assn.) (Reed. March 1, 9 a.m.) , LONDON, Feb. 29. Messages received from Berlin today quote a speech given by the German Minister of Propaganda, Dr. Goebbels, throwing further light on the curious Nazi conceptions of freedom and neutrality. Dr. Goebbels said: “It seems necessary to explain to neutrals the idea of neutrality in its actual meaning. Germany cannot put up with a definition of neutrality which • only • refers to military neutrality and overlooks political neutrality. “It is not sufficient that a Government should declare neutrality while public opinion in the same State is free to abuse as much as it wishes. “Germany has no intention of suppressing freedom among neutrals, but the right of freedom must not be misused systematically to 'insult belligerents.”
