POSTERSUSED
IN BOLSHEVIK
PROPAGANDA
THE HAGUE, April 12 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The Bolsheviki are
coiducting a strong campaign against
America, England and France by the
skillful use of huge propaganda post
ers in Moscow, says G. Nijpels. cor
respondent of the Amsterdam Handel
sblad who visited Soviet Russia this
winter. He found much to admire
from an artistic standpoint in the de
signs of which he saw many in the
railway stations.
“This poster campaign is certainly
a very clever piece of work,” hs
writes. “Both the educated and un
lettered classes are struck by them,
the first by the writing beneath, the
second by the drawings themselves.
The campaign was directed along
three great lines: First, to cultivate
hatred, loathing and fear for such men
as Kolchak and Dcnikine, second, to
breed hatred of the Entente, especial
ly against the capitalistic triumvarate,
France, England, and America—never
Japan, Italy, the Poles or Czeho-Slo
va.ks—but always this triumvirate,
pictured as the bourgeoise parasiting
upon the proletariat; and, third, to
prevent desertion among the red sol
diers.
NO SENTIMENT WITH
PETTY THIEF WHO ROBS
SAN DIEGO, Cal., April 12 (by As
sociated Press).—A thief dived to the
bottom of the “wishing well” at Ra
mona’s marriage place, at Old Town,
near here, recently, and took the ac
cumulated store of pennies and silver,
amounting to about $40, that had been
dropped there by seekers of luck and
good fortune, according to the propri
etor of the historic place.
Here is the ancient motto that hangs
over the well:
“Quaff ye the waters of Ramona’s
well;
Good luck they bring and secrets tell.
Blest were they by a sandaled frirar,
So drink and wish for thy desire.”
Thousands of tourists each year sip
the waters and drop coins in homage
to the good luck spirit that is sup
posed to inhabit the well.
THRILLING PICTURE
OF SUBMARINE WAR
AT EMPRESS TONIGHT
One of the most spectacular and
striking pictures ever filmed will be
shown tonight at the Empress—a pic
ture intended only for the eyes of the
German kaiser and his war lords; a
picture filmed by the commander of
the German submarine U-35, which
sank more allied shipping during the
war than any other three submarines.
The picture was filmed by the com
mander to accompany and confirm his
reports to Von Tirpitz of his fiendish
activities.
This film was captured by the allied
armies upon their occupation of Cob
lenz. It has been edited with English
: titles and is being shown here in Cor
dova simultaneously with its appear
ance on the Pacific coast.
We read of the cold-blooded atroci
ties of the German submarine warfare
and shuddered. Now we see them in
all reality, and stand appalled. Giant
vessels plunge, like living things, into
watery depths, with exploding boilers
and bursting shells. Lifeboats with
their human freight are cast adrift,
2,000 miles from land, with no hope
of rescue. And above, in his conning
tower, the Herr Lieutennant calmly
scratches from his marine register the
name of another doomed ship.
In addition to this two-reel special
picture there will be shown a spar
kling five-reel comedy-drama, “The
Amateur Adventuress,” featuring
Emmy Whelan. It’s a clever little
story of the “poor working goil," her
would-be benefactor, and how she
turned the tables. Full of fun, whole
some and clean-cut, in itself a feature
well worth seeing.
