Bruce Blelaski, chief of thfj bureau of Investigation of the depart- ment of Justice, laid before the senate1 committee Investigating brewery and German propaganda cablegrams ex­ changed in 1916 by Count von Bern­ storfT, then ambassador here, and the Berlin foreign office. One of BernstorfTs messages urged that special favor be shown William Bayard Hale, an American about to visit Berlin as a newspaper correspon­ dent, because he was employed by the j Hearst organs, which, the message j said, had outspokenly placed them-' selves on the German side. Bielaskl told the committee Hale was on the Hearst pay roll for $300 a week, and also was employed at $15,000 a year by a publicity organi­ zation formed in this country by Dr. Bernard Dernburg, the German propa­ gandist. Mr. Bielaskl told the committee that In October, 1914, BernstorfT wrote a letter addressed to Albert and Dern­ burg in which he said the Washington Post was offered to him for $2,000,000. This offer was made, he said, with the understanding that the Post owners would buy the paper back at the end of the war for $1,500,000. A communication from Fuehr to the German foreign office, dated August 2, 1916, said the Post had been friend­ ly to Germany up to that ti*ne, but recently had shown indications of 398 Chicago's "Dandy Firtf", Wit- Jesses Presentation ©!

"Hearst," the ambassador's message said, "is not aware that Hale Is our agent, but knows him only as a Ger- manophlle journalist, who has con­ tributed leading articles to papers." REP.

For support of the army alone the government paid out $4,412,- 000,000.

Da­ vison, chairman of the war council pf the American Red Cross, announced that the Christmas rollcall of the or­ ganization for the enrollment of mem­ bers wa^ in preparation for the larger sphere of peace-time work, in which the Red cross henceforth would be active. "The wBoie American people wilt be Invited In the week preceding Christ­ mas to enroll as members of the Bed Cross. It is confidently believed there need be no further campaigns for Red Cross funds, but instead the annual roll call will constitute the foundation pf the Red Cross. The people should, therefore, know as definitely as pos­ sible the plans aof this their national humanitarian society. "Wherever our soldiers and sailors may be, the Red Cross will stay with them v untfl they are demobilized. Nothing which we may do will be left undone, either for the men in the war zone, for those returning, for those In the camps and hospitals or for their families at home to whom will qon- tlnue to be devoted the ministrations of the Red Cross home service. In this latter effort 50,000 trained Red Cross workers are now engaged at 2,500 different places throughout the land. "The problems of reconstruction, in­ volving feeding and caring for the dis­ tressed civilian populations of Europe, are of such mkgnitude that necessar­ ily they must be met very largely by the governments of our allies. "The war program of the American Red Cross will thus steadily and rapid­ ly merge itself Into a peace program. While the plans in this direction can­ not be formulated specifically, In ad­ vance of the general relief program of the allied governments, the American Red Cross Is nevertheless planning to develop Its permanent organization In this country upon a scale never before contemplated In time of peace. The commissions which are now conduct­ ing the activities' of the American Red Cross in foreign countries, as well the temporary war organization In' this country, will as a matter of course ul­ timately merge their energies with those of the permanent organization of the Red Cross. . x "There may be, therefore, perfect confidence that the peace activities of the Red Cross will he conducted un­ der able and Inspiring leadership. The chapters will maintain their organiza­ tions upon a scale adequate to the tiew demands to be made upon them. Local committees will Indeed appreci­ ate more and more the value of having In their midst strong and efficient Red Cross chapters. The divisional organ­ izations, with honorary and permanent staffs, will be maintained--always feady for service; and national head- qunrters will have a large and efficient personnel to direct the activities of the organization as a whole. "For the completion of Its war work and for. the institution of Its peace program, the Red Cross is fortunately in a healthy financial condition. Abjin- dfcnt occasion for the use of large 'funds of money and great quantities Of garments and other supplies will continue to arise, but it Is believed that there will be no further need for intensive campaigns for funds. The ;work of supplementing governmental activities, which the Red Cross wilt be called upon to do In all parts of Ihe world, will be upon a great scale, but It will call for human service rath­ er th<m;for large expenditures. "What the American Red Cross needs now is not so much contributions of money, as the continued devotion and loyalty of Its members. Tljls is peculiarly true at this moment of transition from war to peace. Annual membership involves the payment of only one dollar. The moneys thus re­ ceived not dWy defray all the adminisr tratlve expenses of the organization, but leave a substantial balance, whlchi together ^vlth all funds subscribed di- tectly for relief, are devoted solely to that purpose. The roll call of the na­ tion Is thus to be called at Christmas time, that through enrollment in their Red Cross the American people ma^ send a message to our soldiers still overseas and to-the peoples of tho world that we are not only merely con­ tent with seeing our arms united with our allies in victory,, but that our abid­ ing purpose is that the love, the sym­ pathy and the Intelligence of all Amer* lea shall be rededlcated to the perma­ nent service of mankind."
