MEXICANS SHOW RESPECT-FOR U, S. ACHIEVEMENTS Pro-Ally Sentiment Grows Through U. S. Publicity Campaign. (By Associated Pi-om.) MEXICO CITY, Sept. 11. The American publicity campaign la showing results In Mexico. The widespread dissemination of facts concerning the war alms and accomplishments of the United States are. according to foreigners long resident here, bringing about a change of sentiment, which, if not characterizable as love for Americans, may at least be called respect. The effect of the Allied blacklist becomes more noticeable daily. The Germans . apparently have much less money than formerly to spend on propaganda. German firms, forced to deal In hidden ways to secure even the smallest Imports from the states, are less prosperous. Arrogance of German officials and business men in

public places is decreasing. Since it became known that four members of the American club, alone in the build

ing at the time, evicted thirteen Germans who invaded the club, there have been no furthr outbreaks.

Posters, pamphlets, reading matter

for newspapers, war photographs ror window display, dally official cable reports, reading rooms moving pictures end authoritative statements by Araerlean officials on international questions, are among the means adopted by the United States government to change the long standing dislike for Americans that have prevailed in Mexico. Through these various channels the war alms Of the United States, its accomplishments In the raising of a huge army, the sending of a million and a half men overseas in record time, its achievements in building a merchant marine, its enormous war expenditures, and the unity of its people, are being brought to the attention of the intelligent Mexican public in a way never before attempted. The campaign also Is having Its effect on the American residents who, armed with facts and encouraged by news of American successes In battle are doing vigorous personal missionary work. Pro-Ally Sentiment. Another effect of the truth campaign is the disclosure of the falsity

of the news reports regarding German successes and aims, for which Teuton propagandists are responsible. It has been shown that the German papers published here do not receive - the news in the way they advertise, that it is taken from American papers smuggled across the border at Luredo, distorted in the rewriting and then telegraphed to German papers in the capital and other cities. Outward signs of the Increase in pro-ally sentiment are the number of newspapers seeking news reports from American sources, the amount of space given in periodicals to allied war news, the increase in the number of posters that are not mutilated or defaced, the additions to the ranks of pro-ally publications of numerous new periodicals and the growing popularity of allied moving picture films. ' When President Wilson, General Pershing, the American flag and marching American soldiers first appeared some time ago on the screen in a down-town motion picture theater there was a protest. Recently, in a theater holding more than 4,000 spectators, in a poor district where antiAmerican sentiment has been' high, there was not a murmur when virtually the same characters flickered on the screen. In fact, one ardent proally Mexican had to be forcibly prevented from making an anti-German speech. According to mining and smelter

men, reports that German interests are buying up huge areas of mineral and oil lands are quite contrary to the facts. They assert that German

mining interests are in sore straits and that no ore produced in a Germanowned mine is being smelted. There also is a noticeable lack of the anti-American satire that formerly pervaded certain theatrical performances given in the capital. Recently a well-known star put on a pro-ally sketch and achieved some measure of success with it. That the. German propaganda leaders have realized their machine is slipping a cog is shown by the well authenticated report that the management of El Democrata, a leader in attacks on the United States, is to be changed. The post has been occupied by Rafael Martinez, a deputy, known under the pen name of "Rip Rip," who was elected to the senate at the recent elections.

The Branch House Man

This is one of the Swift & Company Branch House Men. They are all pretty much alike in the way they feel toward their work and that is what this ad is about They know that most people couldn't get such good meat promptly and in good condition if it weren't for the branch houses of which they are in charge. They know that the branch house is one of the most important links in the chain of preparing and distributing meat for a nation. They know that Swift & Company must have its branch houses run at the highest notch of usefulness; that even a Swift & Company branch house won't run itself, and that it is up to the branch house man to run it properly. Any branch house man who doesn't see his work in this light is transferred to some other place with Swift & Company to which he is better adapted. They are picked men, these branch house men. Every time you sit down to a steak or chop, or cut of roast, you can give a grateful thought to the whole crew of them. And remember, in a general way, that everything that makes life smoother and more convenient' for you is the result of the thoughtfulness and effort of a lot of people of whom you have never heard. Swift & Company, U. S. A.
