Attitude of Spain
Dangerous Only to
Our, Government,

CORRESPONDENT Associated Press.l
Barcelona, Spain, June-Csptain I.
H. La Guardia, of New York City, rep
resentatiye in the American congress,
has told Spanish people that they and
their government are ;nj"r:nS them
selves by friendliness toward Germany.
He pointed out in an interview given
10 the Barcelona La Publicidad that
while Spain was taking this attitude
her vessels carrying raw materials
vitality necessary to Spanish industries
were being ruthlessly sunk by German
submarines.
Publication of the interview has
caused stir thruout Spain. Represen-
tative La Guardia has completed a trip
thru Spain to study the effect of the
many sided German propaganda floated
there He finds that about 80 per cent
of the thinking classes in Spain are
avow dly for the intente against Ger
many, but that the great mass of the
working classes and the Spanish gov
ernment thus far have been swayed by
the German press campaign especially
/ by the arti-American feature of it. to
| disregard SPANS real interests. The
government, he believes, would turn to
I a pro- entente attitude, at least, if Am
erican staudpoints and ideals were bet
ter known.
This. however. he thinks is impossible
as long as the Gernanophile portion Of
the press continued 10 keep alive bitter
ness resulting from the Spanish-Am-
erican war and the loss of Cuba and the
Philippines while belittles or ignores
the sinking of Spanish ships with the
consequent loss of materials intended
| to keep Spanish industry alive.
you understand" he told the Bar
| celona paper, that unless Spanish fac
tories receive the greater part Of their
raw materials from the United states
they cannot continue to operate Then
| why. can anyone tell me, do German
submarines lie in wait off the Spanish
| shores in order to sink Spanish ships
carrying raw materials for Spanish
factories to work with? Are the Ger
mans and Austrians at war with the
| Spanish working people that they seek
to deprive them of their means of livcli-
hood? Because surely it is no punish

Germany is trying to weaken YOU by
Gripping your industries thru the de-
struction Of your mercantile feet. Since
1915 Germany has destroyed not less
than seventy eight Of your merchant
ships with total tonnage Of over 16o,-
900 tons. They were mostly coming
to Spain laden with raw matYiale for
your factories. Just because Germany
is at war and destined to defeat Is no
reason why she should destry the Span
lsh merchant fleet. Germany does not
want Spanish commerce to flourish.

CZECH MuTlNlES HELP.
Morale of Austrian Soldiers Affected
BY Pro- Ally Movement.

Minneapolis, June 2!.-Czecho- Slavic
propaganda has undermined the morale
of the Austrian army and is partly re-
s,tonsble for its. present plight on the
Italian front, according to Lieut. Milo
slav Niederle. who is in the twin cities
to arouse the interest of CZecho Slavs
in their new national army. He will be
entertained by his compatriots at
dinner at the Athletic club tonight.
I'VE entered the Austrian army be-
cause we were forced to- but our SYM
pathies were already with the allies, !"

recruited we started a series of secret
meetings to determine our future action
in the war. Our first opportunity TO
assert ourselves came when we were
ordered to the Russian front. My regi-

fused to fight against their brothers by
blood. Other regiments quickly followed
our lead until 100000 Czecho- SlaVacs
had laid down their arms. This stopped
| the Austrian offensive against Russia.
when the Russian revolution broke
! out, we offered our services TO the
Kerensky government, but 1T was not
| strong enough to carry on the war In
| face of the internal disorders that
sprang up. We realized in short time
that Germany would have Russia in
| her power and we decided to get out
while we could. 1 was on special

bits. We reached Archangel safely and
sailed from there to England"
The Czechs now hold all the railroads
leading into Vladivostok and 10000 OF
their troops are now in that city. They
expect to go from there by transport

BRITISH BECAME THRIFTY.
Tendency to Save Developed by War
and Higher Wages.

London, May 23.-(By Mail)-The
British are saving money as they never
have notwithstanding the increased
cost Of everything.
Sir Robert Kindersley, chairman OF
the national war savings association,
stated that it is remarkable that there
are 1880. 900 holders Of British war
securities and more than 100000 &C
counts in savings banks.
ut may be safely alleged, not only
that saving has been commenced by
many millions who before the war
never saved, but that there is every
evidence that the effort of these savers
increases in intensity as the war pro-
ceeds.'
This situation is ascribed to the fact
that thousands are receiving more pay
than ever and thousands OF women
who prior to the war earned nothing
are now engaged in remunerative war
work. Also the incentive to spend
money has been removed to certain
extent by the regulation of food and
drinking purchases and curtailment OF
amusements.
