Peergler Writes Book.
Dean Charles Pergler of the school
of economies and government has
concluded ARRANGEMENTS for publica-
ton In Philadelphia. of his latest work,
America in the Struggle for CZecho-
slovak Independence" The work will
appear this Autumn and Is Of strictly
historical nature. 1t contains four
ons-Czechoslovaks in America
and Their War Activities, Woodrow
Wilson and the Cause Of CZechoslovak
Independence. the Czechoslovak Cues
ton In Congress and the Czechoslovak
Question In the Department Of State.
1t will also contain an appendix con
tanning a reprint Of the valuable docu-
mentS in connection with the fight OF
the young republic for it's freedom.
Dean Pergler, a native of CZechoslo-
vakia and formerly a lawyer and jour.
nalist in Chicago and the Middle West,
was one of the prime movers In the
uprising Of the national minoritieS of
central Europe and their demand for
independence from the larger powers
during the World War. He was the
first diplomatic representative of his
people to the United States and the
first Minister of CzechoSlovakia to
Japan While in Japan he negotiated
the difficult diplomatic problems re-
sulting from the presence of large
numbers of Czechoslovakian troops III
Financing of Movement.
THE ways and means by which
4
achieved" said Dean Pergler, 'are
probably unprecedented in history
The movement in the west was
financed by Czechoslovak residents OF
the United States, and it is to be eX
pected that the new book which
shall soon publish will throw new hight
upon q little-known phase of recent
war history. The chapter on Wood
row Wilson should prove interesting
as Illuminating the war President
attitude toward the problem of small
nationalities.
The primary object OF the work, &C
cording to Mr.. Pergler, is to preserve
for the American public and the Amer
lean historian facts which otherwise
might never become known and thai
are of importance in judging the
origins Of the war and American war
policies. 1t is based almost entirely
upon original documents in Mr.. Perg
ler's possession.
