ANNUAL REPORT OF STATE
ENGINEER J. A. FRENCH
SHOWS THAT $1,665,019
WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR
ROAD WORK

Outlining the federal aid plan
vnder which the state highway COM
mission is proceeding with the de-
velopment of state roads and bridges
along the main routes. State En-
gineer James A. French this week
submitted to Governor Lindsey his
annual report. The office has been
run on an average cost of 50 per
cent for the expenses of the COM
mission; 1.76 per cent for office en-
gineering; 188 per cent for office
expense; 1O6 per cent for travel; or
a total of 5.3l per cent for overhead
charges, since April 1917.

this amount in the past year, and the
law authorizing them to do so having
expired.

state engineer and state high way

resulted in economy to the state,
especially in regard to office work.

the penitent;ary board retaining the
discipline of the men has proved
success and is now operating in
four convict camps.

Many books and pamphlets show
ing German propaganda efforts
were produced by Mr.. Belaski
Hale Wrote Wilson's Life
In recommending Hale as a pub
licity agent, Bernstorff told the for
eign office that Hale had interviewed
the former emperor in 1908, that he
had written lie OF President Viii
son which was used in the 1910 cam
paign, and that his wife was Ger
man.
The beginning OF the German pro-
paganda, Bielaski testified was in
1914, when Dernburg and Albert
formed an organization with offices
at 1928 Broadway, New York. Al
bert and Dernburg brought from
Germany Sl50,0000O0 in German Sc
curities, Bielaski said. expecting
them to find ready sale in this coun-
try, The market for them was not
satisfactory and only S5,OOO,0OO
worth were sold, that amount being
used in propaganda.
In October, 1914, George Sylves-
ter Niereck, editor OF The Father
land wrote to Albert suggesting that
The Fatherland be retained after the
war, but that the publicity bureau
also should take steps to acquire an
American newspaper, preferably the
New York Sun, or the Press. Later
on Mr.. Bielaski said, he would give
the committee information about an
attempt to purchase the Sun by
Samuel Untermeyer. Niereck sug-
gestcd an arrangement with a New
York paper which would form an
alliance with German agency SIM
liar to the New York Times ar
rangement with the London Times.
A committee of the German pro-
paganda organization OF which Hale,
Niereck and Edward Rumely were
members, with Albert and Dernburg
met frequently in New York Bielas-
XII said. At one meeting on Nov. 5,
1914, Dernburg's notes showed that
it was the opinion of the committee
that public opinion in favor of Ger
many was most important, and that
every courtesy should be shown to
American correspondents in Ger
many.
Hun Propaganda Among Irish
At the same meeting the Dern-
burg notes recorded that the Irish
question would be an important one
in the propaganda and that James X.
Mcclure, former mayor of Syra-
cuse, N. Y had undertaken the or
ganization of society to conduct
propaganda in favor OF Germany
among the Irish.
Associated with the propaganda
organization was DR.. X. +. Guehr,
a former German consular official
in the Orient.
Mr.. Bielaski told the committee
that in October, 1914, Bernstorff
wrote letter addressed to Albert
and Dernberg in which he said the
Washington Post was offered to him
form S2,000,000. This offer was
made, he said, with the understand
ing that the Post owners would buy
the paper back at the end OF the
war for $l,500,000.

powers must pay the cost OF the wal
up to the limit OF their capacity, The
allies propose to appoint commit
tee of experts to examine the best
method OF exacting the indemnity.
In one passage of his program
that dealing with measures for al
increase OF British output, Mr.. Lloyd
George said:
There is one condition for the
success OF all efforts to increase
the output OF this country, namely
confidence. Bolshevism is the poison
of production. Russia proves that
Russia will not begin the building
up OF a productive system until boil
shevism has worked itself out"
"All classes must give confidence
to those who have brains-those
with hearts and hands TO work | say
to labor; "You shall have justice
You shall have fair treatment and a
fair share OF the amenities OF life.
Your children have equal opportuni-
ties with the children of the rich
To capital | say: "You shall not be
plundered and penalized. Do your
duty by those who work for you
and your future is free for all the
enterprise or audacity you can give
u.s.
But there must be equal justice
and labor must have happiness in its
heart. We will tolerate no sweating,
and labor must have its just re-
ward
Lloyd George in his statement de-
scribes the extensive provisions the
government proposes for discharg-
ing its obligation to the gallant sol
diers and sailors-alike to the fallen
the crippled and others. He deals
also with the housing and other
problems connected with postwar
reconstruction and the development
of electrical power.

presented a supplemental list OF
about 50 names OF others to whom
he said German propaganda matter
was mailed, but who were not be-
lieved to be friendly to the cause.
This list the committee was to with
hold from the record.

Iale wrote to DR.. Albert, German
.opagandist, advising how notes

during the Lusitania> controversy
should be answered.
From DR.. Fuehr'S diary, notes
were read telling Of conferences
between DR.. Hale and Won Berns-
torff. Accompanying DR.. Hales was
Louis D. Edwards, also sent by Mr..
Hearst who later, according TO Mr..
Bielaski discovered Dr. Hale still
was in the pay of the German gov
ernment.
Says Hearst Didn't Know
as there any evidence to show
that Mr.. Hearst knew DR.. Hale had
a contract with the German govern
ment" asked Senator Overman.
"No; on tn contrary" the witness
replied, Ambassador Bernstorff'S
diary shows Hearst did not know"
A prisoner named Weunnenberg
at Atlanta pententiary, convicted
of espionage, according to Mr.. Biel-
ask, informed the department o.
justice that in going to Germany a
special mission OF Mr.. Hale was to
arrange in Transmitting his news
dispatches. to include messages for
German officials in this country.
Mr.. Bielaski was interrupted to
ask if the German agents in this |
country ever had succeeded in
swerving any government officials,
and he answered:
No, it is a remarkable record. The
sermans always thought that by
BETTING some inside or highup, they
auld do something. The record

Many times you have seensan awfully

course, this makes the blood impure and
it always shows up in the face, with red
nose, and pimply, blotchy, muddy, bad

how quickly the face will show it with
