Question: What is the name of the lead role in the 1918 serial film that depicts the interception of the secret diplomatic communication issued from the German Foreign Office to Mexico?

 It features King Baggot in the lead role as the daring espionage agent. The Eagle's Eye is a 1918 American serial film consisting of 20 episodes that dramatizes German espionage in the United States during World War I.  Among the events depicted are the sending of the Zimmermann Telegram, Franz von Rintelen's attempts to sabotage cargo loading in San Francisco Harbor, and the capture of the German espionage plans.  It was directed by George Lessey, Wellington A. Playter, Leopold Wharton, and Theodore Wharton, and produced by the Whartons Studio.  The serial is now considered lost.  Because this serial was a commercial failure, it was the last one made by Whartons due to the studio being forced to declare bankruptcy. <SEP> Judge Leon W. Powers (June 12, 1888 – January 7, 1959) from Iowa was one of three judges adjudicating the Ministries trial, the eleventh of the Subsequent Nuremberg Trials.  In his dissenting summary on April 14, 1949 he wrote: "In my judgement, it is incorrect to say that all the German people, except a few, partifipated ["sic?"]  in the persecution of the Jews, and it is incorrect to say the the ["sic?"]  Foreign Office knew of extermination of the Jewish people, especially if by 'Foreign Office', it is intended to imply that the Foreign Office defendants here had such knowledge.  The evidence, in my opinion, falls far short of supporting any such conclusion." <SEP> The Phantom Empire is a 1935 American Western serial film directed by Otto Brower and B. Reeves Eason and starring Gene Autry, Frankie Darro, and Betsy King Ross.  This 12-chapter Mascot Pictures serial combined the western, musical, and science fiction genres.  The first episode is 30 minutes, the rest about 20 minutes.  The serial film is about a singing cowboy who stumbles upon an ancient subterranean civilization living beneath his own ranch that becomes corrupted by unscrupulous greedy speculators from the surface.  In 1940, a 70-minute feature film edited from the serial was released under the titles "Radio Ranch" or "Men with Steel Faces".  This was Gene Autry's first starring role, playing himself as a singing cowboy. <SEP> The Zimmermann Telegram (or Zimmermann Note or Zimmerman Cable) was a secret diplomatic communication issued from the German Foreign Office in January 1917 that proposed a military alliance between Germany and Mexico in the prior event of the United States entering World War I against Germany.  The proposal was intercepted and decoded by British intelligence.  Mexico would recover Texas, Arizona and New Mexico.  Revelation of the contents enraged American public opinion, especially after the German Foreign Secretary Arthur Zimmermann publicly admitted the telegram was genuine on March 3, and helped generate support for the United States declaration of war on Germany in April.  The decryption was described as the most significant intelligence triumph for Britain during World War I, and one of the earliest occasions on which a piece of signals intelligence influenced world events.
