PROPAGANDA HARD AT WORK.
Is Haranguing in Buenos Aires About
Allied Blacklists.

Buenos Aires, Nov. 7 correspondence
Of the Associated Press). German
propaganda here has taken on the form
of well-organized campaign of street
corner soap-box haranglling against the
allied blacklsts. The speakers base their
arguments on the high cost of living,
which they trace to these blacklists.
Evidently large number Of speakers
have been engaged, for in all parts Of
the business district and at all hours
there are small groups of listeners around
q speaker, who is mounted on wooden
soap box. And as he moves from one
corner to another he is followed by a
mounted member of the Security squad
ron.
These speakers are advertised as being
members of the "Liga Pro-Equidad,"
which might be translated as the Equity
or Justice league. This league has an
office near the business center. Over the
entrance to it Is a shield that was so
prominent during the Luxburg neutrality
campaign, but which had disappeared,
the shield of the Pro Neutrality league,
so designed as to make the office appear
to be an office of the Argentine govern
ment.
The shield is the same size and shape
as those which designate government Of

and has in its center the Argentine ma
tional coat -of-a

IN AID OF ARMENIANs.
British Government Determined That
Wrongs Shall Be Righted.

London, Nov THE British govern
ment is determined that the wrongs suf.
fered by the Armenians at the hands of
the Turks shall be righted and their re-
currence made impossible, writes Lord
Robert Cecil, the parliamentary under
secretary Of state for foreign affairs, to
Viscount Bryce.
Four points mentioned by Lord Cecil
as the charter of the Armenians' right TO
liberation at the hands of the allies are /:
1.-The refusal of the Armenians as ma
ton in the fall Of 1914 to work for the
cause of Turkey and her allies, although
offers of autonomy were made ii they
actively assisted Turkey in the war.
Partly on account of this courageous
refusal the Ottoman Armenians were
systematically murdered by the Turkish
government in 1915, two-thirds of the
population being exterminated by most
cold-blooded and fiendish methods-700,
600 men, women and children being
killed.
From the beginning of the war that
half of the Armenian nation under Rus
sian sovereignty organized volunteer
corps and bore the brunt Of some Of the
heaviest fighting in Caucasia under their
leader Andranik.
"These same Armenian corps after the
Russian breakdown took over the eau
casian front and for five months held up
the Turkish advance and thus rendered
important service TO the British in Meso-
potamia."
Lord Robert Cecil adds that Armenians
are still fighting in Syria and have been
taking part in the Palestine campaign,

MOSCOW PRIESTS STRUCK
One of the Interesting Incidents of Boil
shevik Rule.

London, Nov. IA strike Of priests in
Moscow was one of the incidents of boil
shevik rule. Bishop Andronic Of the
Perm diocese, man of considerable in
huence among the Russian clergy, had
been arrested for his outspoken opposi-
ton to the bolshevik regime and ali the
ecclesiastics in that district went on
strike in protest against his imprison-
ment.
They refused to perform the services
their Office required, and the devout muz-
Inks and townspeople were greatly NOR
tilted A number Of striking clergymen
were arrested, charged with counter reyo-
lutionary activity.
After a thorough examination by the
local commission for the suppression of
counter revolution, sabotage and specula-
tion, they were released upon signing a
pledge that they would never take part
in agitation against the soviet govern
ment nor in connection with the arrest
of the bishop,

Deliberate killing by German troops
of Red Cross workers engaged in their
work of mercy on the battlefields has
aroused the wrath Of American army of
ficers. 1t is asserted that all during the
Marine battle, the German aviators swept
low over field dressing stations, pouring
machine gun bullets into the medical
units as they tended the wounded and
dropping bombs on hospitals, although
the Red Cross insignia was in plain view.
The Hun snipers picked off Red Cross
stretcher bearers as quickly as combat
ant soldiers.
"They acted just like cornered rats,
declared an American infantry officer,
Except that most of them did not have
the courage to fight to the death. When
they were surrounded and had no chance,
they would come out of their machine
gun nests with tears in their eyes and
cries of Kamerad The German soldier
in pleading attitude is the most loathe-
some and despicable imaginable"

HEARTY COOPERATION
Given By Salvation Army to United War
Work Drive.

Salvation Army workers have whole
heartedly entered into the United War
Work campaign, the joint drive for funds
being conducted by the Y M. C. A., the
Y. w C. A., the National Catholic War
council tx of C.), the Jewish Welfare
board, the American Library association,
the War Camp Community service and
the Salvation Army. So announces Col
onel Adam Clifford, head of the Saliva
tion Army forces Ia New England.
"The Salvation Army is in perfect and
whole hearted accord with the promoters
of the United War Work campaign to
secure the necessary financial support for
the seven authorized relief agencies do
ing war work among the soldiers and
sailors Of the U. S, forces at home and
in France" stated Colonel Clifford.
early in the present year the Saliva
tion Army asked for support and put on
a campaign for 100000, which amount,
without anything like a maximum of eff
fort, was more than trebled. A further
campaign for Sl0,000,000 was contem-
plated, but now, of course, is merged
with and becomes part of the united
drive.
"The idea of united drive is a happy
one, Is not the drive going forward on
the other side a united one Among our
gallant forces are to be found fighting
side by side men of every religious be-
lief, Protestant and Catholic, jew and
Gentle and of whatever name there may
be, all Americans fighting for a common

eve of the Salvation Army are going
into this united drive with every bit Of
energy and enthusiasm we possess; re-
joieing not only in the work being done
by our own people, but by every one Of
the seven organizations represented. Such
work for the welfare of our brave and
victorious y. S. army boys must and
shall be supported until the final victory
is won, victory that will bring Just
peace and one in every way satisfactory

have fought and suffered so bravely and

SILLY WOMEN!
By Gertrude Anterior of The vigilantes,

Although the women Of this country
have no such stupendous task as con.
fronted the women of both the North
and the South during the Civil war, when
there was no Red Cross, and the govern.
ment was at its wits end to care for the
wounded and the poor, to say nothing Of
few other problems that in these highly
organized days are being directed by spe-
cialized men and women in authority,
still for the most part they have risen
eagerly to all the demands made upon
them. Almost Immediately upon the
outbreak of the war in 1914 the more
earnest and responsible women Of the
country began to knit and make surgical
dressings, form societies for the relief of
the afflicted in Europe, and by degrees
impressed into service women Of less ini-
tative and who had done little or no
work before. After our entrance in 1917
it may safely be said that the best Of our

THEY WERE cATAPU.

London. June 20.-Harrowing de-
tails Of destruction Of one Of the larg-
est and most recently constructed sub
marines are given in dispatch from
a neutral correspondent. The sub
marine was one Of the last TO leave
Zebruggee before the entrance Of the
harbor was blocked by British forces
on April "a. The U-boat struck
mine and out Of the crew Of forty
only two survived on reaching the sur
face Some Of the crew committed
suicide. having lost all hope Of leav-
ing the boat alive.
The only chance Of escaping was TO
force open the coming tower and the
forward matches and trust to the
compression Of air in one part Of the
vessel TO force each man like torpe-
do to the surface. The air pressure in
the submarine had become SO high
that the great majority Of the Ker-
mans could not keep their mouths
closed.
The compressed air shot them TO
the surface and hardly had they
reached the sea level when the air
pressure burst their lungs and about
twenty Of them sunk like stones. The
survivors described the yells Of the
men when the end came as the most
noise htey ahd ever heard.
The attention Of a British trawler
was attracted and IL hastened to the
rescue. The condition Of the surviv-
ors showed that their experience in
the submarine had been Of dread
full character.
