Mexico city, Dec. et,-Germany's
surrender served only TO spur German
propagandists In Mexico to koftier
heights OF mcndaci.y. In n country
where access to news is frccr than Il
is in Mexico, their 1ies would soon
prove boomerangs, but In this coun-
try. despite their clumsy sph,crfugcs,
the propagandists' met with some
success In befogging the Issue OF real
victory
In this they were aided by the fact
that tho nrst report Of tho signing OF
the armistice on Nov. was false.
Admission of this fact by pro-Aily
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 armisticc terms
favored Germany. They admitted
that the German fleet was held In
British waters. but declared that II
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' tho German en-
gines OF war at the "internment." The
surrender Of Germany's submarines
was passed over as lightly as pos
sible.
According to the pro German
periodicals only one sixteenth OF the
German fleet was given up. not its
heart" A huge navy. they said,
built during the course Of the war and
held in waters unknown to the allies,

battle to the allied fleets, That this
propaganda is intended, not for mill
tary purposes, but to preserve the
tattered rags OF German prestige in
Mexico for after the war trade pur-
poses. is indicated by an article in
one German paper warning Mexico
to beware Of British goods.

he read from tale Of two robbers
named Thunderbolt and Lightfoot who
lived in a cave IN the mountains. They
were bold, free, swearing men who
rode beautiful horses at wild gal
lop and carried guns and used them
freely and with unerring skill and
helped themselves to what they want

He stopped, by and by, and confided
to me the fact that he thought he
would run away and join a band Of
robbers.
How do you run away?' l asked.
"Just take the turnpike and keep

We meet a band O. robbers give 'em

He went on with the book and read
how the robbers had hung captive

planned how they put the rope around
the neck Of the captive and threw
the other end of it over the limb
of tree and pulled the man into
