German plot to align the nations of
South America against the United
States is revealed in telegrams sent
to Berlin by the notorious Count Won
Luxburg, former German charge in Ar

gentine ministry for foreign affairs re-
ceived from the embassy in Washing
ton, of which the translati0ns were
made by the department of state in
the United States.
There are three kilograms not pub
lished, as they allude solely to the
republics Of Chile and Uruguay. The
government has decided that it should
not publish these kilograms and has
delivered them to the respective chan
celleries.
The kilograms show number of
inaccuracies so surprising that no
epithet will fit them. as they are at
complete variance, both in substance
and form, with the terms in which
the negotiations were entered into. car
ried on and brought to conclusion"
The German charges messages were
sent during last July, August and Sep
tember. All are addressed to Berlin
and signed 'Tuxburg."

OF Luxburg's intrigues, which began
when the state department gave out
the famous "spurlos versenkt" (slnk
without trace) messages.
