YANKS Find PLOT
Third Army Discovers Attempt
To Evade Terms by Huns.
Americans Nearly Cheated Out
of Millions in Materials.

American Headquarters in Ger
many, Jan. 15.-The American Third
army has uncovered a plot by Ger
mans to evade the terms of the armi-
stice, according to announcement to-
day.
The Americans were nearly cheated
of millions of marks worth of mater
ial, it has been learned. thru sales of
motor trucks and large quantities of
supplies by the Germans. These sup
plies, which reverted to the Ameri-
cans under the. terms of the armistice,
were sold to private corporations and
individuals. F
A proclamation has been issued
from headquarters warning against
such sales and declaring them void.
Everything thus sold has been ordered
surrendered within week.
German duplicity also is causing a
rigid examination of alleged unSatiS-
factory food conditions. Two experts
the control of the situation. These
are Walter Beanes, formerly a New
Y ork sanitary expert, and Lieut.. C.
Leo Mason, a food expert of Maryland.
These men are already dealing with
German authorities who were warned
by Col. U. L. Hunt, in charge of civil
affairs, that the Americans were fully
cogniZant of the propaganda being
carried on with regard to food condi-
lions.
The Germans offered to present sta
tistics to show that)a shortage of food
really exists and that the health of
communities is suffering. Children,
it was asserted, are especially affected.
A house-to-house canvass will be
o--rried out if necessary to get the true
facts.

cases of influenza showed up on the

Tuesday a total of seventeen cases was

it seems probable that there will be
more or less influenza in the city for
