won Bernstorff was anxious to put
through anything that would help his
government. He often lied to his
government and he was often fooled
by sharpers, as previous dispatches
have proved. This lie regarding the
Washington Post is on a par with
the rest of the German propaganda"
The Post has been known under
the younger McLean's mana cement as
distinctly pro-American and proally.
One of the interesting disclosures
at the hearings is that Germans
thought they could stir up trouble in
this country with Japan. One sug-
gestion was to have Japanese out
rage a girl on the Pacific coast to stir
up anti-JapaneSe feeling.
One letter produced by A. Bruce
Bielaski before the committee, pur-
ported to have been from Samuel
Untermyer noted New York lawyer,
suggesting that a deal for a New
York paper could be put through for

/ This was in 1916 and Bielaski said
he believed the property was the New

This officer is listed in the mill

German propaganda system is uncer-

Britain Day Celebrated Today

NEW YORK, Dec. british day,
being celebrated throughout America
today is a fitting tribute to the world
wide work the British empire has done
in the war.
In all wars the supreme commanders
must take chances. The side that takes
the biggest chance is the side that
wins the most overwhelming victory
II it succeeds at all. ne two powers
that took the longest chances in the
present war are Germany and Great
Britain.
Germany lost and because the
chances she risl1ed were SO great her
downfall Is the more Overwhelming.
Had Great Britain been less wiling
on her part to run risks, the world
success OF the allies would not have
been in any sense as complete as it
dividing her forces and going after
the enemy in all seven seas. 1t is only
because the chance was taken that
German colonies have been conquered
on the field Of battle; that Turkey
has been Internationally defeated and
that Mesopatamia and Palestine have
been redeemed for civilization. 1t Is
due also primarily to the chance Great
Britain took that Germany's mittel
Europa scheme of conquest was de-
stroyed, with its resultant reaction
against the pan-Germans.
All these results Great Britain ac-
complished because she took the risl,
| of not concentrating her entire mill
| tary strength along the west front In
| France and Belgium. That risk was
!! dangerous one, as all risks in warfare
necessarily must be. 1t was undertaken
before there was any reasonable as
surance that the United States would
be drawn into the conflict and it might
have resulted in permanent dead
| lock in the west. Had Great Britain
not trusted her instinct in the vital
matter. the war cestainly could not
have been won with the present COM
pleteness of democracy's world wide
triumph.
| The celebration of British day there
fore is an Acknowledgement by Amer
! lea, not only OF the manner in which
| the British fleet has safeguarded the
seas for democracy, and of the Prov
ess Of Marshal Haig's armies, but it
! is also a tribute to the risk the British
empire took in fighting Germany on a
veritably imperial scale.
Out Of this risk has been born the
greatest triumph of arms in civiliza-
tons history.
