By the Associated Press.
COBLENZ, Friday, July 11.-Ameri-
can Army officers, who uncovered a
plot involving wholesale thefts Of food
and other supplies. have notified the
French government that American
bacon has been reaching territory out
side the occupied region in Germany
in French railway cars. The Army in
vestigators said they had information
which led them to believe the bacon
was sold to the French government
for distribution to French civilians
and they are anxious to learn if this
bacon was sold to the Germans in a
legitimate manner. French and Brit
ish authorities have been asked to
cooperate in the investigation.
A surplus of bacon has been found
recently in certain German districts
beyond the Coblenz bridgehead. In
one instance the American authorities
traced two carloads of bacon and
found they had been shipped back
into the Anne rican area Bacon is SELL
ing in the interior of Germany at
from is to 25 marks a pound.
Ingenious methods of smuggling to-
bacco through the neutral zone have
been discovered and the prevention of
these is giving the authorities an
amount of trouble second only to
that caused by the mysterious food
shipments.
Recently the Americans found a
German freight car with a false top
thousands of cigarettes,
which were conhscated. In another
case hundreds of pounds of choc-
olate and thousands of cigarettes
were found covered with coal in a

Gen. Bliss is fully aware of the

1t is believed in diplomatic circles
here that the United States should be-
gin operations against Mexico before
the league of nations comes into ac-
tive being: otherwise article x would
technically prevent 1t.
This is believed to be the reason
why Mexican Statesmen here, chief of
