To call these publication propaganda would be to dignify them too much. Propaganda implies a certain plausi- "bility of statement, an approach to tart in presentation, and some glim merings of knowledge of the state of mind of the persons addressed. But these recent German efforts to! ;influence the “good-natured but Six Months, Dai ?misinformed American,” as he is called in one of the latest issues ‘from the German press, are 80 crude, so bungling, so misdirected, as in themselves to discredit the in- telligence of the authors of these precious writings and of those who export them to the United States. “We are asked, for example, to consider the terrible case of ‘The Reparation Profiteers.” The refer- ence is to the valuation placed by the Reparations Commission on German payments in material. Thus, according to this impartial and truthful German estimate, the value of the steamships delivered up was really 5,916,000,000 gold marks. But the Reparations com- mission valued them at only 716,- 900,000 gold marks—a clean steal for the profiteers of more than five billions. A little further arraying of “figures that do not lie” is all that is necessary to show that Ger- many has already paid far more than the total fixed by the allies two years ago. It is in its approach to the Amer- ican people that this leaflet stands out above all others of its kind for sublime ignorance of how to do it. Setting out with the avowed aim ef counteracting French propa- ganda in the United States, the adroit question is asked in the head- line, ‘Would You Eat a Live Frog?” If not, the demand is made why any one should swallow statements coming from France. This is Ger- man wit at its best, and German acuteness in understanding foreign- ers raised to its highest power. It was probably considered in Berlin extremely clever, just the thing to get under the skin of Americans. But if the German officials had taken the trouble to inquire of wan- dering German-American Socialists at the Hamburg International con- gress, they could have learned what a horrible miscalculation of Ameri- can sentiment, and of the way to approach it, they were making. This particular publication is double-barreled, one charge being} fired in the direction of England. Great Britain is told of her “fatal error”. in allowing the French to go into the Ruhr and to proceed with the whole ambitious policy of France, which is now militarist and imperialist in the extreme. A fa- mous German scholar and publicist, Dr. Oswald Spengler, is brought forward to give evidence regarding the true goals toward which the French are pressing. He has dis: covered that there is “‘a direct stra- tegic line” leading from Paris through Prague and Belgrade down to the mouth of the Danube. This line already “plastered with French military commissions,” whose real design is to control the route to India, France also desires to make use of the North Sea “asa basis of operations against Eng- land,” and is likewise plotting to ally herself with Moscow” with the result of dominating ex urape and securing for herse open path to Asia Minor and to India. Furthermore in her n world-wide far that direct understanding has taken place between the ne-| groes of the French occupying forces and the negroes of the Unit-| ed States.”—New York Times. Casper, Wyo., June 5, 1923. Editor Casper Daily Tribune: Your editorial in yesterday's Tribune, under the caption “Good| News From Ireland” might win the respect due the expression of your own honest opinion, but the evi- dence of flagrant deviation from facts in the case is so clear that a correction is called for. Such a deviation whether caused by wil- ful prejudice or through misinfor- mation is proof of emanation from @ source or sources entirely devoid of interest in setting the truth be- fore the reading public. In the first place the reports of events occurring during the past many months in Ireland reach this country for the most part colored and doctored to suit the British “au- thorities’” in Ireland. For what is the “Free” State but a puppet of Albion, leopard of the never chang- ing spots? The most rigid censorship is placed over all communications or news coming from Ireland, with the exception of facts that will oc- casionally seep out despite the vigi- lance of the minions of His Brit- tanic Majesty who have long since foresworn their right to racial claims as Irishmen, when they be- trayed their motherland for Eng- land’s thirty pieces of silver, when complete independence was within her grasp and peace and honor was so certain! You still attempt to have the reading public believe that the “Free State” has been accepted by the Irish people in face of well known facts concerning the irregu: lar ten year old voting register ex- cluding thousands who had reached the age of suffrage, and those brave boys who had not the oppor- tunity to register as they were en- gaged in ridding their country of the most evil of foreign tyranny, and also the many who were intim- idated by officers of a tryanny most foul, against protesting at the polls against the gross betrayal, reenslavement and partition of their country. You also appear to forget that the ballot as prepared was the pro- duct of Mike Collins, who upon or- ders from Churchill, ever the bitter foe of his country, broke the solemn pact he made with De. Valera, viz, that the question of the “‘treaty” was to be postponed for further consideration by the people of Ire- land and till after the threat of immediate and terrible war had been withdrawn. If De Valera had so little support from the Irish peo- ple, as you contend, his lifeless body would have hung from an English gibbet long ago and he would not be traveling with such ease through the country sheltered and harbored by true friends among the people, though there has been many a chance to betray him and collect the handsome reward England’s agents have offered for his capture dead or alive. Whether De Valera is captured or killed there will be many other Valeras to arise and take his place of leadership in the struggle, for the cry of sovereign independence is the bone of Irish'bone and flesh of Irish flesh. The trouble for the past year in Ireland originated in the bad faith of the “Free State” leaders and has been prolonged by the aid of English money. English guns and English soldiers) Upon the renegade Irishmen who started it at England's bidding rests the moral responsibility for every drop of Irish blood shed in a war that never would have been fought had the terms of the De Valera-Collins pact of May 12, 1922 been adhered to by those who had begun by be- traying the Irish republic at the London conference and ended by sacrificing the lives of the bravest or Ireland’s sons at the dictation of the British government. Ireland never accepted the “treaty,” by an election; in so far as it functions it has been forced at the point of British guns upon the Irish people. “The treaty will always be remembered by the bru- tality of its supporters. You state that the Republicans are a small mi- nority. Under this category you would probably place the valiant peasants of La Vendee who true to their faith and their king fought against terrible odds, when they rose in revolt against the riotous and corrupt Paris convention dur- ing the French reign of terror, suf- fering a cruel massacre for a cause that was lost. Another minority was the Swiss guard who, rather iantly unto death against the mob threatening the yarnon of the unfor- tunate Louis XVI. These immortal in the honor which will be paid them by posterity. The ‘‘mi- nority” in Ireland has not yet fall- en, nor has it shown any real tend- ency to fall in fact its very trouble- some “minority,” to the uneasy ma- jority. ‘We all want peace not alone in Ireland but every where there's tur- me but, justice must not be for- gotten in our hopes for peace. | than desert their trust fought val-| “minor-| ities” fell in their fight but are, plotting France has progressed. 50 M.

Dr. B. G. Glegg of Monarch was summoned to attend to Mrs, Nizrek’s injuries. The wound was stitched up and it is believed that she will recover.
