Weston of Minot for governor, Svien-

attorney general, and Joseph A.
Kitchen of Sentinel Butte for commits

will be bitter fight and there is a
possibility of an attempt to get the
courts to issue a restraining order

WHEELER SEES LAW
ENFORCING PROGRAM
BEING HAMSTRUNG'
Says Prohibition Agents Tx
penses Can Be Cut Only
BY Reducing Forces.
81 I.OUIS IUDIOM

WASHINGTON. Feb. 10. ~ That
the Acknowledgement program is be-
ing "hamsuung' by congress is a
charge made by Wayne 3. Wheeler.
general conseI and legislative agent
of the Anti-SaIoon League OF Amer
lea. His charge ia based ou the ac-
ton. OF congress in cutting 100000
out Of the deficiency appropriation
bill for law enforcement during the
remainder of the present fiscal.
Mr.. Wheeler today made public a
letter he has received from John F..
Kramer. national prohibition enforce
ment commissioner, tn which ar
Kramer tells of the damage done by
this pairing progress. Kramer's Iet-
ter says i'm part:
1t is impossible for us to cur
down our running expenses i'm any
other way than by reducing the force
of our agents and Inspectors i'm the
field. The office force maintained
at the present time in the field is
not sufficiently large to keep up with
its work. We pay our agents jim the
main Sl25 month. Each agent
would thus receive $500 for the re-
naming four months of the year IL
we are 10 save 100000 we VIII have
TO dismiss 1900 men. OF course.
some of our agents are drawing
more than SI25 per MONTH and we
might be able TO save 100000 10y
dismissing from the service 500 OF
$50 men. In view of the number of
men we now have, this would Of
course entirely demoralize our work
for the remaining four months - the
year"
Admits Same May Be Corrupt.
Commenting on the situation. Mr.
Wheeler in a statement says:
1T is bad policy and po.r econ
omy To cut 100000 from the de-
ficiency appropriation bin for pro-
hibition enforcement. The criticism
made about some of the federal
agents may be true. We have bcer
fighting against the appointment el
such agents and have asked for their
removal whenever we had proper
evidence TO sustain our charges. Tho
department has removed many OF
these agents who have been corrupt
ed by the liquor interests This is
no excuse, however, for hamsuing-
ing the whole law endorsements. de
partment for the last four months
of the current year. because a few
officers have gone wrong.
1T is poor economy 10 cause the

FLOOD ALSACE
WITH PROPAGANDA
Thousands of Articles Abus-
ING France Circulated By
German Friends.

PARIS. Feb. 19-AccordinE 70
Excelsior German propaganda in
Alsace and Lorraine is taking vast
proportions. Thousands OF PAM
phlets containing abusive articles
against France are poured into the
two provinces weekly.
Newspapers published in Baden
Baden. considered as one capital Of
German propaganda publish SIM
liar articles and urge Germans who
have remained in Alsace and Lor-
raine TO help the propaganda bureau
The Helmatdienist, which is the
principal organ of propaganda and
which the French newspapers say is
evidently inspired by official circles,
publishes figures showing that more
than 2S000,0C0 Germans live in for
eign countria and that this force
should be used in propagating Ger
man culture.
The figures show that there are
more than 100000 Germans in the
United states. 10000 in Central and
South America, $4,000 in Belgium.
10000 900 in Czecho-Slovakia. 7O0,-
600 in Jugo Slavia, 100000 in Hun
gary and 100000 in Austria. Thus
the propaganda services understand
that the whole population of the lat
ter country are German ard there
can be little wonder that the service
boosts the UNION OF Austria and Ger
many. Likewise. the Hematdienst
says all the population of DantziG
and Luxembourg is German.
In GERMANY illu@rated books are
printed containing souvenirs OF Al
SAGE and Lorraine and are distrib-
uted to former inhabitants Of these
provinces. These books carry mes
sage from Hindenburg in which the
former army commander openly
breaches revenge.
Another review. Reichswart, is ed
tied by Count Ernst Won Reventlow.
1t publishes every week and apart
from its criticism of French admin
istration prints letters it is supposed
to receive from Alsatians complain
ing of being separated from the
homeland 1t also attempts TO
prove the Germanic race OF the Al
satians and says the province is be-
ing strangled economically.
