. . I s ' - Becker Discusses Workings Of Hun Propaganda Machine ' "Washington, Dec. 19. Propaganda machinery set up by the German gov ernment in Berlin and throughout the : '.world to spreaa uerniamu meao, .uu 'the methods of financing this in the United States, were discussed today eratine committee by Alfred L. Becker, deputy attorney general of New York. The witness also told of his investigation for the French ' government of the success of Bolo' Pasha, executed a.s a. French traitor, but added that since apparent ly the Paris Journal did not change its attitude of loyalty towards Franc, the transaction was a "pure swindle" Of the German government. Mr. Becker read documents gathered partly by the British secret service - showing that the German foreign of fice and other government departments at Berlin maintained elaborate sys tems both before and after the Euro pean war began to influence thought all over the world. Branches of .the German banks and commercial houses co-operated in a vast cohesive organi zation to promote friendly relations toward Germany. Journalists, college professors, bankers, business men and commercial consular attaches many vf them being citizens of the country Jn which they worked were employ ed, Mr. Becker said. Usually the propaganda was insidious. As early as 1909, said Mr. Becker. George von Skal, a former German re serve officer and later auditor of ac counts of New York city, was told on a visit to Berlin by a representative of the foreign officer's press bureau that he would be valuable in case of a future wir to keep in touch with the press in the United States. There was no evidence, however, that he acted in this capacity after the United States entered the war, the witnss said. The German government in May, 1914, tried in vain to buy the Ottoman' Telegra phic News Agency, with headquarters in Bagdad, to spread German propa ganda. The publication of a German edition of Current Literature, a maga zine of which George Sylvester Vier eck in the United States and his fath er, Louis Viereck in Berlin, were pro motors, was mentioned by the witness, together with the Germanic Museum at Harvard and the movements to ex change professors with American uni versities as German propaganda moves. One example of enemy propaganda, said Mr: Becker, consisted of the sys tematic effort of late in 1917 to speak throughout the world the idea that Sermany was on the verge of internal revolt, and that the kaiser would be Boon overthrown. The fact that the dissemination of these reports was encouraged by the chief German gov ernment, censor was convincing evi flence that the efforts were propagan fla, intended to paralyze the prosecu tion of the war. in Mr. Becker's opin ion. He said these reports had been sent out by Germany by George "T. Odell, correspondent of the .New York Evening Mail, after the United States entered the war. Senator Reed interrupted to ask whether similar articles had not been published by other newspapers since then, even down to the present, and that developments had borne them out. Mr. Becker said this was true but in sisted that the reports were inspired by the German foreign office late in 1917. Mr. Becker said the Trans-ocean News Agency maintained a wireless service intended to influence mainly South Americart peoples, while the German "South American Institute and the German News Service for Portu gal and Spain, subsidized by the Ger man government, had similar func tions. "I Mr. Becker told the committee that enemy propaganda in the United States was disclosed incidentally during his investigation of the activities' of Bolo Pasha in promoting the' financing of the Paris Journal and in what was de scribed as an attemp't to form a new alliance between the Journal and Wil liam Randolph Hearst's newspapers. The witness .told of an unsuccessful effort by Bolo in conferences with E. G. Grace of the Bethlehem Steel Cor poration to get the money to purchase the Journal. Former German Ambassador Von Ambassador assented so readily to Bolo's proposal that the German gov ernment, advanced the money to pur chase the journal, the witness said, that the New York investigators pro ceeded on the theory that Mr. Hearst might have arranged the purchase, be fore Bolo came to the United States. On this point, however, Mr. Becker said: "I do not say today that I con sider this theory in any way estab lished." The witness said there was no evi dence of a news connection - between the journal and the Hearst newspapers. In the early days of the European war, Mr. Becker testified, offering documents in substantiation, the prop aganda movement in the United States was financed in this way: The Ger man government deposited 25,000,000 marks of war notes dated August 12, 1914, with M. M.. Warburg & company, bankers, at Hamburg, as collateral for a loan of $400,000 which Kuhn, - Loeb & company. New York bankers, on September 8, 1914, made to "Dr. Ber nard Dernburg, German propagandist in the United States. Dernburg. later( placed the entire' amount at the dis posal of Dr. Heinnerich F. Albert, said to have been paymaster of enemy, propagandats. Later, Chandler & company. New York .bankers,, sold $10, 000, 000 of Ger man war securities for the German representatives, for which $9,908,000 was realized, and this sum, said Mr. Becker, together with other amounts derived from subsequent sale of Ger man bonds, provided funds with which the German representatives juggled, checking them in and out of various banks to provide basis for advances, and to promote trade relations. These funds were distributed by Count-Von Bernstorff and Albert, according to the witness. Referring' to the plot by Captain Hans Tauscher, a German reserve of ficer, to foment rebellion, in India, Mr. Becker read an affidavit by Abraham Stein, of New York, saying that an un named German came to him before the United States entered the war and asked if the company had trade con nections in the Dutch East Indies, where the German wanted to send a quantity of rifles and ammunition. The committee received a telegram today from Samuel Untermyer saying that a -.letter written by Dr. H. F. Al bert in 1917 to Von Papen outlining Albert's opposition to the resumption by Germany of unrestricted submarine warfare was an expression of the views of the influential' members of the German embassy at that time. For that reason Mr. Untermyer said he was solicitous kt tirat. time that nothing be done to impair Albert's usefulness in inducing the German command not to begin a .new U-boat campaign.
