Carl Ackerman, an American newspaper correspondent was a witness tpday before the senate committee , Investigation lawless propaganda , in this country. He discussed the thoroughness of Bolshevikl propaganda in Siberia. KIIAPP SUPPORTS ANTI-GERMAN BILL The following statement concerning the anti-German bill is made in a letter to Ed N. Wilson, secretary of the Rotary Club, by Representative J. M. Knapp, who voted for the measure. "I believe that the McCray AntiGerman bill passed the senate on Monday afternoon, is the best bill yet offered. I am very much disappointed in the action of the legislature thus far in the matter. It has been my opinion that the legislature should have taken this matter up, passed a very strong anti-German bill in both houses and should have been signed by the governor during the first week of the session. I think the legislature has made a mistake of this delay. "I surely cannot mistake the sentiment of the people of Indiana, especially the people of Wayne county, when I say that I believe that they demand the most stringent anti-German law that is possible to be passed, and yet to. be held constitutional. I want my vote and attitude on this one proposition to harmonize entirely with my stand on this proposition during the war and I want the people of Wayne county to understand that I will be for the strongest measure that will come the nearest to representing 100 percent American citizenship.'
