 And Association.
(AssOcidted Prsssl

WASHINGTON Oct 11.-Evidence has been secured by the Department of States that Germany financed what was known as the 'Trsh-American Propaganda Organization" as early as nineteen hundred and nine. The pur- pose of the organization was to con- bat the newly developed movement for the celebration of the one hundred years peace between America and England.
 President Wilson learned from leaders of the centenary celebration, that German. Irish and American in- terests in the United States had form ed a number of organizations, assoc iations or leagues to foster the inter- ests of German affairs few weeks after the plans of the celebration of the centenary had been announced in nineteen hundred and nine. These organizations were later merged in- ton what became known as Truth Society" the members of which lob hied against bills in the legislature to promote the success of the celebrat- ion. This celebration was planned for nineteen fourteen but was called off as a result of the war.
