Letter Significant.
The letter is particularly significant
at this time because it is known
that for several months the Govern
ment has been eognizant Of the in
sidious efforts OF the German agents
in South America. The Germans
maintained an effective organization
throughout the Continent, where for
a long time the United States had no
effective means OF combating.
The improvement in the situation
Is attributed to the policy OF the
United States in seeking nothing for
itself except what It asks for every
other democracy in the world. That
the real aims and detectives of this
country have finally been made clear
Is attributed to a large extent to the
improved exchange of news between
the northern and southern continents,
the lower cable rates, and the efforts
OF the committee OF public informa-
tIon. The South American diplomatic
corps in Washington, in close touch
with the actions and policies OF the
United States. are said to have con-
tributed materially to establishing
the better understanding.

by her own hands, DR.. Hopkins re-
piled: mo sir" WHY" asked Brady.
"On account of the position on the

"She did not" was the physicians

DR.. Hopkins stated that in his
opinion Mrs. Brandon came to her
death from shock as a result OF a

the widespread efforts still being

which had been committed.
AT no stage OF this distressing
war have I ever entertained the
slightest idea OF making any combi-
nation for the special beneft OF the
United States. Ny thought has been
merely the establishment of interna-
