GERMANS TRYING

ed at the disposal of three German
agents at Vladivostok to be loaded as
merchant vessels and sent to the United
States, Japan and the British colon
les in Eastern Asia. The cargo really
carried to be German agents to act as
'agitators.'
eff unable to get Russian ships, the
instructions were to charter vessels un-
der any flag
"The action of the Russian govern
ment on the matter has not been ascer-
tanned"
That Germany will do her utmost to
finance all the projects tending to the
industrial upheaval in allied countries
is known to be her promise. A deal
las been made with Lenine to push
the propaganda from the Bolsheviki
standpoint and five hundred thousand
roubles have been appropriated for the
purpose. Lenine s agent is MadamoiselIe
Kolontai, member of the Bolsheviki cab
met.
From the purely socialist angle it is
learned the work was to be done thru
Swedish minority socialist Lindhagen.
The outstanding feature of reports be-
ing received here is the utter frankness
with which the Germans are now deal
ing with the Russian council of the
people S commissaries in their work to
weaken the allies.
The reports distinctly show that Len
inc continues to exert his energies in
these channels while urging the people
to accept the German peace terms and
offer no cOunter-resistance to the in
vaders. As a result, confidential re-
ports received by American and allied
representatives show that for the most
part the German invaders are being
welcomed in Russian territory-presum-
ably in the hope that the Teuton arrival
will mean establishment of order.
How far the Lenine and German prop
uganda may already have gone, has not
yet been determined. It is felt, however,
that in view of this growing German
menace and in view of the exposed pro-
paganda plots, measures might well be
taken to combat it and further solidify
the relationships and understanding be-
tween the United States and the allies.
1t is probable that a delegation Of
public men may go to England
soon to preach The American View
point in the war, study the English
view and return to America to talk
to this country on ''the allies.''
The personnel of the delegation has
not been determined upon but it will
include political and intellectual lead
and Representatives
of labor and professors in some of the
nation S leading institutions of learn
ing.

1T IS UP TO THE ALLIES

Since the utter break down of Russia it probable the
entire plans Of Germany have been changed While CIV
ing the allies to understand that great drive would be
undertaken in the west front this spring. it is most likely
this information handed out for the purpose of de-
ceving them to her real intentions Recent dispatches
indicate the activities of the kaisers armies will be
directed to cleaning up the Balkans and making drive
against Italy Conditions also point this as being her
probable On the west front she can hardly hope
to break through the defense to accomplish anything
in the way of helping her situation If she holds the
allied armies this front while she ravages the balance
Of Europe she ask nothing better All winter she has
been strengthening her position the western 'front.' and
has made it strong human ingenuity and effort can
do With Russia out of the way and Roumana forced
make she has free hand to the east and SOUTH
will be able to concentrate great force against Italy
Especially will she be able to do this if she can conscrpt
the people she has conquered and force them to fight
for her.
This will compel action the part of the allies It is
perhaps impossible for them to meet Germany in the
Balkans, and the only way in which they stop her
efforts in that section is to keep all her armies busy the
western front This that instead of campaign Of
watchfu waiting the allies will have to become aggressive
and force the fighting. 1t will mean some desperate
struggles doubt but it looks though it is the only
course left open.
