 TEST STILL TO COnfE
 Foreign propaganda here is rela- lively tame stun in peace time, ex- cept for the sub rosa type. Embass- les feed 1t out as best they can and ambassadors seek to make as many important friends and contacts as possible.
 The Russian embassy entertairs frequently and lavlghly for oficiais and newspaper correspondence. Tne Germans give c famous annual beer evening" at which many American ofIicIaB, congregational leaders and correspondents make merry.
 British propaganda is considered to be handled ably although ufi- ofIicially by Sir Wilmott Lewis, core respondent of the London Times, a Jewel among after-dinner speakers who knows nearly every Washington newspaperTnan by hts first name. The spanish embassy is a center of propaganda for anyone who will call for literature, but has not been ag- gfessive.

threaten strikes. Sam dompers crashed down on 1t. Albert'S brief case was stolen by U. S. Secret Service agent and it's contents, re- vealing German propaganda sub- sides. were published. Won Papen and Boy-Ed were branded as plot tcrs. Their recall was demanded and obtained.
 Bernstorn stayed on, lobbying for institution of peace negotiations by Wilson and baked by British dip- lomats who wanted nothing of the kind until the Allies were victorious.
 THE NEW DRIVE
 It is curious to note that the pres- ent German ambassador, Dr. Hang Luther, is being recalled 20 years later, partly because he has been unable to get any American money lent to Germany and partly be- cause he has been unable to arouse any sympathy here for Hitlcr's Nazi government.
 Germans, British, Italians, French. through embassies here, have tried everything under the sun to find some loopboic in the Johnson act which would give them access to American funds. They're all pre- pairing for war.
 Germany and Italy especially need cash. Fuiyio Suyich, relatively new Italian ambassador, was sent here to wangle a loan. The new French ambassador, M. Bonnet, was sent to try to persuade Roosevelt to permit Morgan x Go. to act as fs- cal agents for the new French loan.
 Walter Runciman of England, a recent visitor, is understood to have urged Q $500. .00O. 900 loan to Britain which would be re-ient to Germany and France as an alleged measure to help keep peace. Runciman failed.
 Everybody knows that any Amer ican money lent to Europe today is, in effect inevitably destined for munitions makers. Although the administration is engaged in q tri-

of German blood lust. British propagandists assured the world submarine warfare was otherwise unimportant
 The propaganda climax came with torpedoiilg of the British liner Ii,sitania with loss of l24 American lives. Foreign and native propagan- da famed the flames of national ip- dignation. The captiyated Page cabled that America must declare war or forfeit European respect"
 GERMAN SPY" FEVER
 German counter propaganda was futile, partly because it was bun gled, but largely because few Amer jeans wanted any. Ambassador Bernstorff catered to Washington correspondents, press-agentcd his cause wherever he could get hear ing and had able assistance from Dr. Bernhard Dernburg and q. II. AL bert.
 But even his warning to Amer icans to keep of the Lusitania bounced back at him. The German publicity machine stalled, then died.
 The Germans subsidized certain American writers, newspapers. ai- legged peace societies and arms em- bargo movements Efforts were made to get all sympathizers with the Central Powers out of intuition factories. Austrian Ambassador Dumba was trying to stir up Austro- Hungarians in this country. A mes- gage to his government describing this effort and slightly criticizing Wilson was intercepted and pub lished by the British. Wilson de- manded Dumba's recall.
 Capt. Won Rintelen came over to work with the German military and naval attaches, Won Papen and Boy Ed. Jncendiary bombs were planted on munitions ships and mysterious res broke out.

 Widespread sympathy for gallant little Belgium" and poor little Ser bia," appeared at the outset. Most Americans quickly came to believe that Germany was militarlstic, auto cratic, cruel and entirely to blame. Ties of blood and language With England figured in public reaction along with sentimental feeling for Ia Belle France and Lafayette.
 PREJUDICED ARTICLES
 Two Of the most important cate gories Of foreign propaganda are found in the efforts of foreign en- yoys 10 influence American policies through contacts with officials here, and in foreign influences excrted upon American diplomats abroad, This sort of thing goes on all the time and was in progress prior to the World War.
 The British were especially suc- cessful in charming Ambassador Z Walter Hines Page at London, and Colonel E. M. House, Wilson's i1- tiFpate friend and unofficial rowing ambassador.
 The British cut German cables after war was declared and there after controlled most news channels. Sir Gilbert Parker set I'D prolific bureau for Americas exclusive bene- ! 1t, and such celebrities as Kipling, Wells and Galswortby were glad 10 write prcjudiced articles for Amer lea.
 Dyoyes of British authors, labor leaders and other lecturers came oyeE Possibly you remember Ar thur Guy Empey) English pubic men such as Lord Bryce wrote long, soulful letters to admirers in Amer ica.
 Sir Cecil Spring Rice, British am- baGsador, had become an intimate friend of Theodore Roosevelt and Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who grew increasingly Jingoistic and pro- Ally as the war wore on. The Nor gan partners still boast that they were from the start heart and soul for the Allies.
 House was on such good terms WAkAA tliN pAAbtbib bAAb ant Secretary of State Lansing drafted a stern note protesting the British blockade, House took the notO to Spring Rice and allowed 2 him to revise it.
 TsIEN--THE FLOOD
 AtTocity stories, most of them faked, poured in from Allied nations. Propagandists effectively plugged the story that as soon as Germany had defeated England she would in- wade America.
 A huge preparedness movement was built ID largely on this thesis of German invasion, with T, R.. Gen. Leonard Wood and munitions inter- ests leading the Wboopipg.
 The country was flooded with books and movies in which defense less America" preparedness. or German bestiality" were central

themes. Clergymen, business men, editors nearly everyone in line for preparedness" and Wilson him. self. in the election year of 1916, led one of the many big preparedness parades"
 The relief campaign for "starv- ing Bclgians' enlisted more pro- Ally sympathy, although the British blockade served to starye BeIgiana and Germans alike. The submarine warfare, operative in the British declared war zone as valuable military retaliation to the starya- ton blockade, was commonly re- gardcd here as merely an expression

 At this writing America appears inlpervious to ali types of foreign propaganda. The test as to Wlieth- CT we're really immune will come # and when European nations again begin to ght and turn loose the floodgstes in an effort to obtain American help.
