German War Poster Circulated in U. S. to Boost Fourth Loan

(By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Sept. 23. A poster issued by the imperial German government in an effort to belittle the United States' contribution to the war and bolster the failing spirits of its people, has been reproduced by the Liberty loan publicity bureau and two million copies will be distributed in this country during the fourth Liberty loan campaign which opens formally next Saturday. Intended solely for consumption within fiArmnnv- thn rtoster will est jfar wider circulation, resulting in the enemy's publicity guns being turned on him. The poster was forwarded by an American in Switzerland. "Can America's entry make a decision In the war?" is the poster's title. And with diagrams showing a small American army and a small merchant marine, the pamphlet inferentially answers "No." "Russia's army of millions could not down Germany" argues the poster. "America threatens to send transports of one-half million men but it cannot ship them." These words are inscribed on a scroll held by a cadaverous looking Uncle Sam alongside a Russian soldier appearing immense in comparison. At the time the poster was displayed throughout Germany last July more than one million American fighting men already were in France and this number soon will be doubled. "England's sea power and England's merchant marine have not decided this war," says the poster. "America cannot increase her gross registered tons for 1918 hv mnr than two or two and a half millin tons; our u-boats America can build." Three lines accompany a diagram of Uncle Sam holding a toy boat contrasted with a big ship representing England's merchant marine. The poster also shows a great fleet of ships, more than twice exaggerated, represented as necessary to transport a single regiment.

BULGARIAN LINES Continued From Page One. istration, sensational developments may come at any time. British and French armies are continuing their attack against the outer defenses of the Hindenburg line north and south of St. Quentin. Notable in the developments on that front during the past couple of days has been the progress of the French toward the range of hills to the west of the Oise river south cf St. Quentin. At some points they are in control of ridges which appear to dominate long stretches of the valley to the east and in spite of determined counter attacks by the Germans, they are holding the ground they have won. British Meet Resistance. It would seem that the British have encountered savage resistance north of St. Quentin, after having cut the Hindenburg line at two points. At rresent the British are fighting hard to hold the ground they have won in this sector, while slowly creeping near the main German positions along the line running to the west of Cambrai. Along the American-held sector of the front, there have been many patrol encounters, but nothing approaching a general action has been fought. The same is true of tha mountain front in Italy. An official report issued at Vienna indicates that a Czechoslovak detachment was annihilated durine a raid by Austrian troops in the Dosso Alto region. The same statement says the Italian attacks in Albania have been repulsed.

Should the offending state cross its fror.iiers with hostile intent against one or more members of the league, Joint military and marine assistance would be gr- en.
