WASHINGTON, Oct. 21. (Washington Hureau of the Journal) A recent
ores .dispatch from Germany quotes a leading newspaper to the effect that
Ir hifch circle in that country it Is believed that the United Htate will be
(.'eoerou and will waive payment of all war claims for damages amounting
to upward of J800.000.000. '
At about the same time. George Sylvester Viereck, publisher of the Ameri
can Monthly, formerly Fatherland, was announcing that the Harding move
ment among the German element in this country is making fine progress,
and that 1,000 000 votes of this persuasion are already sewed up, with an ex
I e.c utlon that before eleeton day the word to support Harding would get
around to all affiliated German hosts.
WOl LIl "KAVK VIi:illC.V
Viereck is doing all this In the name of robust Americanism. He wants to
"fcavo America" from the league. He "lay off" on the advuntages of a sep
arate peace. It may be s'gnlfcant that the German in Germany are looking
hopefully to America and separate peace because of the word they receive
ftom their friends in America.
"We are for Harding because Harding Is for America," declares Viereck.
He also says he know of no element In America that waa disloyal in the war.
To further promote this "Americanism." of which even Harding could not
speak more fervently, Vlerick Is busily organizing the members of former
German-American societies Into Hard ng clubs.
KNOm'KAGEMKXT GIVKV
The tendency in the Harding campaign organization to encourage this sort
ol thing receives further point when It is remembered that the vice-chairman
of the republican national committee is John T. Adams of Iowa, and that Mr.
Adams is at this time In charge of republcan western headquarters at Chicago.
Adams was a strong pro-German sympathizer before the United States en- I
tered the war and was active in spreading German propaganda In th s coun
tiy. He wrote a letter published In a Dubuque, Iowa, newspaper, saying:
"GOD- NEVER MADE A MORIH GENUINE. UPRIGHT, NOBLE CHAR
ACTER THAN THE GERMAN KAISER." IN OTHER LETTERS ME
I.LAMED THE WAR ON ENGLAND, HiliSUTED THAT ALSACE-l.OR-l.'AINB
WAS 'THOROUGHLY GERMAN" AND ASHAILEf) THE BEL
GIANS FOR THEIK "ATROCITIES" INFLICTED UPON THE INVADING
GERMANS.
The choice of Adams for conducting the Harding campaign In the west
has never been explained, but he Is there, while others who did not admire
.he kaiser are compelled to work In subordinate position under him. ,
CIIOICK Of AIDU SIGNII-ICANT
Adams is against the league, of course, and he has a conspicuous position
n the Harding campaign, the significance of which probably is not lost upon
Viereck and his associates. They presumably are not alarmed about what
Harding has said about a "new association cf nations" in viow of what Taft
has said.
"No one ran supiiosc that the iH-ncipal aflicd powers Mill consent to a new
awsorjaton or league," raid Taft, "when the old one is part of the treaty of
VerMailcl und It would tic foolish for Harding to Insist on this niicn only
through a ratification of the treaty can ho make secure our rElits and privil
eges again.Ht (fcrmany."

I hae been oft misquoted and there
are a lot of statements going for which
I am not responsible, so I am trying to
make myself understood.
First As to the five boys signing
a statement that they were not abused,
by any of the three officers named In
their statement, It true. These men
the boys said did not administer the
third degree to them, but somebody
let others into the Jail that. did. '
Secondly They definitely stated
stated that all the abuse, after the
erdict of guilty was arrived at wad
that Mr. Hlnclalr put them into sepn
rato cells, took away their reading
matter and shut off their light and
used abusive language to them.
Thirdly I wish people would be
careful not to state anything that they
do hot know to be dlfinltely true, eith
er about officers, prosecuting attorney
myself of other. : It la wrong In the
extreme so to do. ...
Some have said that I m upholding
lawlessness, that Is absolutely untrue.
I am as strong and sound on law en
