SWISS PRESS is
BITTERLY SCORED
BY HUN PAPERS

Berne, Switzerland. May 25.-Ger-
man newspapers received here today
contain slurring and even abusive ref
erences to news dispatches in regard
to recent events in America which
have been published in the Swiss press
in the last few days, it having been
discovered that these articles ema-
mated from the American legation.
Even the Franlxfurter Zeitung aban-
dons its usually dignifle'd attitude to
assai1 this propaganda" although its
correspondent ignores the fact that
the German propaganda, as differen-
tiated from news, has become so bur
densome to Swiss neutrality that sew
eral genuinely Swiss German-language
newspapers have protested vigorously.
N The new departure of the American
legation In furnishing to the Swiss
press concise news dispatches cabled
by the new branch of the state de-
4 partment appears to be welcome to all
but the out and> out Germanophile
independent German-language papers
have made use of everything furnished
to them in this way and express them
selves as DESTROYS of obtaining and
publishing all available news from
America
There has been an absolute absence
OF propaganda in the news furnished
90 far, and its real value ceases to be
received as a welcome relief from the
surfeit of ponderous or violent sitter
allure" with which the Swiss press has
been and is flooded from German
sources q

You do moi know what that last
means. II is to e%nlighien you-lest /
perish with my secret undivulgpd-that
l am writing tonight. l have To inform
you concerning that sacred trust, that
bequest Of your patriotic forefathers.
One hundred years ago, almost to "A
day, the first John Claiming died. lie
was a Yirginian. n friend Of Washing
toms, "a soldier. a. patriot. a gentleman
of fortune, character. Intelligence and
of almost prophetic foresight. He had
served through the War of ~Independ-
ence. When the War of 1872 broke out,
he resigned his ease and took the field
as a colonel of militia.
In his military capacity John Chan
ming the First was an intimate observer
Of the lack of organization. military
spirit, training, ability to fight, that
characterized the American forces
What he had experienced made a
profound impression upon him. HI
never ceased to plan to protect his
country against it's greatest weakness,
and its greatest enemy-itself. In the
fatuous blindness Of a people who ther
as today believed a sacred and jusi
cause the equivalent of resistles:
weapon OF defense. who thought they
had no need to train themselves fol
val so long as they warred only fol
the right, the first John Claiming fore
saw an intrinsic. inbred weakness o.
the people, prolific of perils which he
conceived it to be his duty to combat.
Some time prior to his death, there
fore, he consulted with the first Pete.
Ripley, my f0rebear and the founde.
.of that line of legal advisers to tn
Claiming family which must perisl
when l perish. Between them, tn.
two schemed out a scheme for a fun
for national defense in time of DANCE
through what we have lately learned &
term .'unpreparedness.' One half o
the, wen then, very considerable Chan
ming fortune was set aside to be tn
nucleus Of the Claiming secret defens
fund, to be drawn upon or expende
wholly only in gravest national emeI
gency.
The secret and the custody Of tn
fund was handed down from father t

son MS long as the Channings and the
Ripleys had male children. That time
is now passed: My boy died before at
tanning maturity you are your fathers
only child.
The fund today has grown, through
careful investment and unremitting
vigilance, to the appreciable total sum
of approximately 100000 900. The
whole is stored In the secret vault be-
meath this room to which the password
is your name. Three-fourths of it IS
comprehended in gilt-edged securities,
Immediately negotiable; the balance of
$25, 100000 is in gold-thus accumu-
lated for immediate resource in emer-
gency.
Wisely employed. this treasure may
prove the salvation Of your country in
this, as it seems, it's hour of direct
need. Europe is aiame with war
when peace is declared. EurOpe's fore
ordained way to recoup will be by
means of preying upon some great and
wealthy but defenseleSs country. such
! as the United States of America. on
the other hand, TO the west Of US, we
have a great nation without room to
grow-Japan. Its natural course OF
growth, following the line of least re
sistance, must be In and through oui
western states. To the south Of u:
/ lies Mexico, a hOtbed of revolution, In
trigue and racial hatred.
Evidence In support Of Japan's de

been detailed to drill Mexican troops

ii is true that, following my refusal a
