GERMANY GOT HER
; LEG PULLED" IN RE
bOLO TRANSACTIONS s
PURCHASE OF PARIS JOURN-
AL DIDN'T MAKE 1T DIS
( LOYAL TO FRANCE

Washington, Dec. l9.-Activities
OF Bolo Pasha who was executed as
a French traitor, in promoting in
the United States the financing by
the German government OF the Paris
Journal and in what was described
as an attempt TO form news alliances
between the Journal and William
Randolph Hearst's newspapers were
recited today to the senate COM
mittee investigating German propa-
ganda by Alfred l.. Becker, deputy
attorney general OF New York.
Mr.. Becker explained that his in
vestigation was made at the request
OF the French government, to deter
mine the culpability OF Senator
Humbert, proprietor OF the Paris
Journal on a disloyalty charge, and
that enemy propaganda in the Urit-
ed States was disclosed Incidentally.
Bolo tried, Becker said, to obtain
from Hearst declaration of French
sympathies. Charles +. Bertelie, the
Paris correspondent OF the Hearst
newspapers who came to the United
States 20 introduce Bolo Pasha to
Hearst early in 1910, was quoted by
Mr.. Becker as having said that ev-
cry American loved France and that
consequently it needed no advertis-
ing. After Bolo's return TO Paris
in May, 1916 the Paris Journal pub
lished "fulsome account of
Hearst" the witness said but other
wise no evidence OF news connec-
tion between the Journal and Hearst
was disclosed.
, Bolo Was Camouflaging.
Bolo sought unsuccessfully in con-
fcrences with +. G.. Grace, presi-
dent of the Bethlehem Steel Co., to
get the company to purchase the
Paris Journal. Mr.. Becker stated in
his opinion this move by Bolo Pasha
was entirely camouflage," intended
to cover ,.p the real purpose of his
visit to the United States"
Becker declared the investigation
by the new York state authorities
showed that Bolo's financial activ-
tiles were through three American
banking institutions, G.. NJ. Amsink,
& Co., the Royal Bank of Canada,
and ]. p. Morgan & Co. He told |
the committee that German propa-
ganda extended through South and |
Central America, Mexico, Cuba,
Porto Rico, Holland and the Scan
dnavian countries, as we'll as in all
the countries at war with Germany.
Becker said that Count Won Berns
torff agreed so quickly to Bolo's pro-
position to furnish 81 $4,000 TO pur-
chase the Paris Journal that the
New York state investigators had
proceeded on the theory that Mr..
Hearst might have arranged the pur-
chase before Bolo came to the Unit
ed States. He added, however:
Il do not say today that con-
slider the theory in any way cstab
lished.'
Was a Pure Swindle.
In. response to questions from
senator's, Becker stated that there
was no evidence that the Paris our
nails attitude toward the war had
been changed by the German fnanc-
ing and that it had always been
oyal in its utterances.
Then it looks as if Germany got
her leg pulled, doesn't it?" COM
Senator Wolcott.
1T was a pure swindle," replied
Mr.. Becker. Zone lesson of all this
S to show the absolute futility OF
such transactions"
