GERMANS SAY REPORTS
OF TROOP MOVEMENT
Is AMERICAN BLUFF

Washington, July 9.-Publication in
Swiss papers Of the text of Secretary
Bakers letter to President Wilson, Civ
ing the American troop movement to
Europe by months, caused German au-
thoritiec to permit its publication in
Germany. according to a dispatch re
ceived from Berne.
The Koelnsche Zeitung published the
letter under the heading American
bluff" and commented as follows:
Mr.. Baker thinks he will be able to
dissipate all doubts about exactitude of
his figures with his recitations. 1t is,
however. only the usual American bluff.
We know from reliable sources that the
figures in question are inordinately ex-
aggerated and in no way correspond to
the truth"
