NEW KANSAS EXECUTIVE CELEBRATES INAUGURAL TON DAY BY TURNING SPOTLIGHT ON WEAK PARTS OF U. S. PROGRAM

TOPEKA, Jan. 13.-Gov. Henry Allen in his address today following
 his inauguration, declared that the Germans had maintained domination on the American front, and said there was no lack of bravery on the part of the American aviators. Often times they went up knowing that each American would be pitted against two, three or four Germans. Not only did the airplane service pay the price, but the infantry also paid a heavy toll in human life for the protection they expected and did not get. He said the American soldiers were not popular with the British, nut fraternized with the French.
 Governor Allen declared that the lack of artillery support was due to he failure of the horse supply, and the shortage of airplanes led to the ,utting to pieces of the 18th Divi- sion, composed mainly of Missouri and Kansas troops in the Argonne ,orest
 Allen, who spent ten months in France for the Red Cross and the Y. NJ. C. A., also criticised the cen sors:lip, charging that it became as arrogant and as absolute as the censorship of Germany He declar- cd that there should have been 60O0 instead of 5000 horses to carry up the artillery and the horses were old ones which the French had discard ed because they had no further use for them and the army paid $400 each for them only to be forced to shoot them day or so later because they were too old.

 CASTALIA
By Associated Press.


 HALIFAX, Jan. 13.-Wireless dis patches from vessels standing by the United States shipping board steam CT, Castalia, which has been in dis tress off Nova Scotia since early Sat urday morning, brought news that the rescue of A members of the crew had begun shortly after 9 o'clock.
 The rescuing ships are the Der gensfjord and the War Fijian. An exchange of messages between the two vessels was caught by the wire less station ashore and one from the War Fijian read:
 We have now picked up most of the crew Two drowned"

cers on the floor, Senator Wilkinson of Maricopa was nominated by Sen ator Godell in opposition to Senator Johns and thereby became the re- publican floor leader in the senate. Senator Wilkinson announced that Governor Campbell had informed hinl that he would deliver his mes sage to the legislature at joint ses- sion on Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Several members of the leg islature expressed their regret that the governor would not deliver his message until then and were of the opinion that it might cause some de- lay in the work of the legislature.
 There was fair-sized audience in the galleries of the two houses when they convened, the largest crowd being attracted to the house. The new members of both branches appeared perfectly at home and took their places like old timers.
 No one is attempting to predict what will come out of this session. It is realized that there are great possibilities ahead for the legisla- tors and that much important legis- lation should be enacted. Tomor- row the bills will begin to drop into the hopper and then an estimate may be made of what is to come forth.

Ex-Hon. MT. Hunt Goes To
 Court in Effort To Grab
 Money Earned by Campbell
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 PHOENIX, Jan. 13-Former Gov ernor G. w. P. Hunt began action in the superior court here today against State Auditor Jesse Boyce to compel the payment of S4,529.51 back salary. The legislature two years ago pass ed a bill increasing the salary of the governor from $4,OOo to $6,50o. AL though Hunt was temporarily out of office pending the contest for the seat, the auditor held that inasmuch as a subsequent decision of the su- preme court seated him and awarded him the salary, he was in office at the time, and therefore prevented by the constitution from benefitting by the bill enacted during his term. The governor later drew his salary at the S4, 900 rate, but still claimed the in crease was due him.

SEEKING ID SAVE HUN PRESTIGE
 IN MEXICO

MEXICO CITY, Jan. l3.-Ger- many's surrender served only to spur German propagandists in Mexico to loftier heights of mendacity. In country where access to news is freer than it is in Mexico, their lies would soon prove boomerangs, but in this country, despite their clumsy subteFfuges, the propagandists met with some success in befogging the issue of real victory.
 In this they were aided by the fact that the first report of the signing of the armistice on November 7 was false Admission of this fact by pro Ally papers gave the German agents a hook on which to hang charges that subsequent reports also were without basis in truth.
 The out and out pro-German pa- pers asserted that the armistice term favored Germany. They admit ted that the German fleet was held in British waters, but declared that it had not Surrendered" but was be- ing held only until peace was con cluded and, as an artistic touch, modestly claimed that the 400 allied warships "saluted" the German en- zines of war at the "internment" The surrender of Germany's subma- rines was passed over as lightly as possible
 According to the pro-German peri odicals only one-sixteenth of the German fleet was given up, not it's "heart" A huge navy, they said, built during the course of the war and held in waters unknown to the allies, was ready at any moment to give battle to the allied fleets. That this propaganda is intended, not for military purposes, but to preserve the tattered rags of German prestige in Mexico for after the war trade purposes, is indicated by an article in one German paper, warning Mex ico to beware of British goods.
 One pro-German organ which has at times reported acts calculated to stir up hostile feeling against the United States, is preparing a way out should German support com pletcly vanish by publishing another paper, called Imparcial, and which treats the allies with gentleness and apparently is adopting an attitude of "disinterested neutrality" which words appear to be the favorite of the anti-Ally journalist since Ger 1rany's equalization.
 Developments resulting from the return to Mexico of Felix F. Pala vicini also are being awaited with nterest MT. Palavicini, founder of Fl Universal, led the pro-Entente Journalist campaign for months dur ing the time when Germany appear ed at the crest of her military sue cesses.
 Heinrich won Eckardt, the German minister, since recalled) and the Aus trian representative not long ago are. said to have secured the publication in well known papers of official statements" that the German fleet had not surrendered, but was ready to fight the Allies and that the new Germany was as strong as the cid ever was.
