French auxiliary workers behind the

up along the roadside cheering the

Whenever a German prisoner fell
out owing to exhaustion, he was picked
up and put on a motor truck. French
officers agreed that the captives were
the finest looking set Of prisoners they
have seen in a long time. The Ger

peared to be glad they were captured.

LENINE, TRoTZKY AND AssocL

IN PAY OF KAISER.
ARRANGED FOR REVOLUTION
Also Negotiated Brest-Litovsk Treaty
Under Berlin's Directlon-ReVo-
luton In Russia Financed BY
German Imperial Bank.

Washington.-The way has been
paved for military or any other posi-
BILE action to sage Russia for the Rus
slams. The United States, through
original documents which tell one OF
the most astounding stories of the
war, stripped the mask of hypocrisy
from the face of the Bolsheyik govern
ment of Russia. 1t accepted at their
face value the threats Of Lenine,
Trotzky and their followers against
civilization and in reply branded them
with the Judas stamp of men who have
betrayed their own for a price. Ger
many's disgraceful career of intrigue
and crime, designed to give her su.
premacy in the world, stand more
openly revealed through series OF
documents whose startling disclosures
dwarf to insignificsnce all previous in
trigues Of modern history.
These documents show that the pres.
emit heads of the Bolsheviki govern
ment-Lenine and Trotzky-and their
associates are German agents.
They show that the Bolshevik revo.
luton was arranged for by the Ger
man great general staff and financed
by the German Imperial bank and 9TH
er financial institutions.
They show that the treaty of Brest.
Litovsk was a betrayal of the Rus
sian people by the German agents, Le-
nine and Trotzky; that German pick
ed commander was chosen to defend"
Petrograd against the Germans; that
German officers have been secretly re-
ceived by the Bolshevik government as
military advisers, as spies upon the
embassies of Russias allies, as Off.
GERS In the Russian army, and as di.
rectors of the Bolshevik military, for

Russian government at all; but Ger.

interests of Germany and betraying

sia's natural allies, for the benefit of

trayed the working classes of Russia,
