New York. July 29.-Evidence that
George Sylvester VIereck. whose
claim to Americanism is being in
vestigated, obtained 100000 for his
own uses from Germans who
said they were contributing to Inn
prove the status of enemy aliens,
has been obtained through examin-
alton Of witnesses and of his bank
accounts, 1t was announced today
at the offices of the Merton E. Lew
is. state attorney general. About
half this sum was invested in Ger
man war bonds and municipal Sc
curities.
After America entered the war
and Viereck changed the name Of
HIS publication. The FatherIand, to

enue. which was the German gov

Harden ZmdNLges
In Plain Talk On
Annexation Plan

Amsterdam, July 29.-Maximilian
Harden devoted virtually the whole
Of Saturdays Die zukumft to proving
that Chancellor Won Hertlings
charge against the allies that they
want to annihilate Germany is, un-
true.
Harden quoted President Wilson's
Mount Vernon speech and A. L. Bal
four's last house Of commons speech
to show how bitter the entente ma
tions are against militarism, but
that they are ready to give the Ger
man people a fair chance.
He compared these speeches with
those recently delivered either by
the German Chancellor or various
junkers int he Prussian upper house,
where the unlimited annexations talk
is continually heard.
He concluded by saying:
Germany must begin to see
clearly on which side is the will
to annexations. Germany must be-
gin to fight against this power-a
power with which Germany herself
long ago become disgusted."

Eager For Grand Offensive

independent Of the land and sea.
This was forced on the British gov
ernment, eliminating last January

Lord Weir at its head.
General Brancker believes that
eventually the United States will
be obliged by the pressure of mill
tary necessity to create a secretary
of air forces. or the equivalent, un-
der whom air fighting, airplane pro-
ductiOn, equipment and personnel
will be the function as a separate
branch of combat. For the success
Of the allied cause, he feels strongly
that the quicker air independence is
established in this country the bet
ter.
Another vital step to be accom-
plished, he believes. Is the co-ordina-
ton of the operations OF all the al
lied air forces beyond those required
for the respective armies and navies
as an independent offensive force
under the supreme war council.

GOOD THRESHING
PRINCIPAL AIN
Food Administrator Hasn't
Fixed Price At Which
Work Shall Be Done

The federal food administration
has not attempted to fix the prices at
which grain threshing operations
shall be conducted in the northwest
according to DR.. E. r. Ladd, federal
food administrator for North Da-
kota.
The chief concern Of the food ad-
ministration, so far as the threshing
work; is concerned, is that all grain
be conserved in tho threshing op-
GRAFTON, for it is pointed out that
losses aggregating no mean total
have been experienced in past years
through poor threshing.
The food administration has not
fixed prices which threshermen
shall charge for their services" said
DR.. Ladd.
1T was suggested, however, that
the county threshing committees
now organized throughout the coun-
try may act in an advisory capacity
Tor assisting threshermen and farm
ers to formulate fair charges based
on local methods and conditions.
This has been done in many cases.
1t would seem that threshing
charges is matter that might well
come before the state council of
defense. thus securing uniformity Of
charges for the state"
The suggestion for action by the
state council Of defense, a local ma
chine dealer said today, would have
to take into consideration the very
great differences Of crop conditions
in various sections Of the state. In
a district with poor crops, the
threshing cost is unavoidably higher
than in a territory where good
crops have been produced. f
Practically every county In North
Dakota has already been organized
by the threshers. They are Coop
Grating with the farmers, and in
many counties have fixed threshing
prices, as we'll as wages~to be paid
laborers. >
The county units have been or
ganized, in each instance, through
the activities Of the county food ad
ministrator
