FASCINATION IN SPY GAME, BUT , DANGERS LURK Every Nation Has System of Espionage on Both Foes and Friends. BY RODNEY .DUTCHER NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON, June 17.—One of the most fascinating factors of international relations is the spy system. The giveaway on the great network of espionage maintained by the nations of the world always comes when a spy is caught redhanded. Ordinarily it works very quietly, and then, every year or two, evidence of its operations comes to light and one is immediately met with the informal comment—often defensive—that all governments employ spies to gather military and other secrets from other countries. The latest instance of this followed the British howl of virtuous indignation against Russia espionage. The British presumably found much less than they expected to find in the Arcos raid, and the assumption also is that they would have found more had they suddenly raided the flabbergasted embassy of one or more of the other great powers. Lloyd George Tells of Systems At any rate, Lloyd George, who knows a great deal about the British government as well as about other European governments, was only one of several who pointed out publicly that all governments spied upon each other and stole one another’s documents. There is no indication that our own government can lay claim to any pious freedom from such tac-

From the beginning this company has shown in substantial ways its faith in commercial aviation. The Standard Oil Company [lndiana] was a pioneer in developing gasoline and oil for aviation use. Today it furnishes a major part of the supply for airplanes in this country. Red Crown Ethyl is on the land what Stanolind Aviation Gasoline is in the air. Motorists throughout the Middle West have discovered that Red Crown Ethyl gives amazing performance. It uses carbon turning it into power. It knocks out that knock. It costs a trifle more but it’s worth more than it costs. Everywhere and everywhere the same.

tics. It would be asleep on its feet if it could. You hear, in confidence, strange yarns about the international spy system as it effects the United States. Some of the stories probably are not true—but some of them probably are. There is enough evidence even on the surface to indicate that military and naval attaches in world capitals manage the clearing houses for subterranean information bought and otherwise obtained from spies. The likelihood is that they haven’t anything much else to do. It will be recalled that our own military attache in Mexico City re-

cently was in the limelight when important documents which had passed through his hands were obtained by the Mexican government. A splendid job of international hushing was performed and the incident seemed a turning point in relations between the two countries, but in all fairness it should be said that no official proof ever was produced to show that the attache had done anything that wasn’t open and aboveboard. It was obvious, however, that there had been certain military espionage along the border which seems to have been practiced by both sides.

INDIA BRANDED WORLDMENACE U. S. Author Removes Mantle of Mystery. l!U I nitcd Press NEW YORK, June 17.—Modern India, with its 319,000„000 population, is described as a world menace, rather than a subject for selfgovernment by Katherine Mayo, American author in “Mother India,” recently by Harcourt, Brace & Cos. With startling frankness Miss Mayo rends the mantle of mystery which has hovered between India and the Anglo-Saxon world, revealing a cesspool of disease, where bodies and minds are weakened by

child marriages and sexual excesses, where every movement of progress is numbed by the poison of Brahmanism. M. K. Gandhi, who has raised his voice loudest in that cry for Swaraj (self government) is exposed as a dullard whose vagaries in political and economic reasoning would cause an American schoolboy to smile. Miss Mayo explains that the leader of millions, who began his married life at the ripe old age of 13, continually exhorts his follow-
