The Bridgeport times and evening farmer. (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1918-1924, 1918-03-27

Germany's despicable methods of con-
Quoting war against her enemies.
There are many documents of such
nature dealing with numberless Rus
sian and other traitors, but we will
only confine our attention to ce1
tain number of personages among
whom we name: Prince Hohenlohe
(hitherto regarded as an honorable
gentleman both by Germans and non
Germans throughout the world);
Bjernson, the degenerate son of the
great Norwegian writer; F'urstenberg,
the grieved father of the person whom
we have recently spoken about in an
earlier article; Parvus, no less an in
terloper than his godfather, intimate,
like him, with Lenine-Trotzky and Gle.
Besides these people mentioned there
are many more not so well known, but
no less criminal, to whom it would be
truly too much honor to even men
ton their names.
Here is a document, brief, import
ant and ignoble:-
Circular of February 20, 1915,
addressed toy The Press of the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs, all ambassa-
doris, ministers, plenipotentiaries and
consul authorities in neutral coun-
tries:
'Tt is called to your attention that
there has been founded on territories
in the country to which you are IT.
tached, special bureaus for organiza-
ton of propaganda in countries that
are not at war with Germany. TIE
propaganda will aim at bringing about
social movements, accompanied by
strikes, revolutions and civil wars and
all agitations that will help to bring
to an end this bloody war. You must
aid by all possible means those at the
head of all these bureaus of prope-
ganda. They will furnish you with
necessary credentials.
"(Signed) Barthelme."
1t should be noted that this circu-
lar was addressed on Feb. 23rd, 1915.
It must also be remembered that early
in 1915 "the propaganda" did "aim
at bringing about social movements
accompanied by strikes, conducted
by the I. w. W. and German Socialf
| lists throughout the United States;
revolutions and civil wars and all ag-
itations that were intended ''to help
to bring to an end this bloody war"
of such movements in the United
States to further deal with the bear
| ing of the above circular on the &C
tivities of so-called Peace Movements,
conducted by elements which have
been in a position to apply to that
dirty fund appropriated by Hun Sc
cret Agent Bureaus throughout Amer
lea.
Germany not being able to van
uuish the Entente by her armies, tried
to win by the aid of money, arson
and treason. The refuse Of the worlds
sink holes, as we'll as the idiots who
happened to be men of learning, were
equally welcome to help the Hun con-
quer the world.
This, and still further unspeakable
crimes of Germany will also be shown
by the documents which will follow,
and which bear on Russia and her
new plague and curse-BolsheVikism
For the Distribution of the Russian
Army
First we have a circular in which
the names of two persons figure, who
have played, and are still playing, a
prominent part in the Maximalist
movement. The names of these men
are Zinovieff and Lounatscharsky. For
the purpose of not confusing the read

unpronounceable Names in the fur

as "Z'' and "L.''
