DISCOVERY OF
GERMAN PLOTS
BY JUGO SLAVS
Dispatches from the Jugo-Slav .. £
nists in South America contain the £
information that their organization. £
i the Jugo-Slav National Defense, will £
! continue its vigorous work throughout £
; the duration of the Paris conference £
land until peace is signed. These peo- £
- pie, about 80,000 in number, dwell £
" chiefly in Chile, their largest settle £
ments being in Antofagasta and Punts £
Arenas. Among them are some of the £
richest men in South America. Their £
1 labors since the beginning of the war £
have immensely helped to propagate £
good feeling toward the allies and to £
checkmate the machinations of Ger- £
man agents. £
Even before the war the Jugo-Slavs £
of Chile felt keenly the German men-j £
ace in South America. It was wrllj£
known that the German spy system | £
penetrated every country on the con- £
tinent. Because they had seen some £
/
thing of German operations at home r
in Europe, the Jugo-Slavs were more j
awake to the danger than many of the _
South Americans. Then came the out- j
break of hostilities and the enrolling
of all Europe in war. Early in 1915 . £
Dr. Ljubo Leontic was summoned to i £
Chile to organize the Jugo-Slavs so £
that they might work together as a ji
unit. The so-called Jugo-Slav National i £
Defense, to which nearly every Jugo- £
Slav in South America belongs, was j £
the worthy result of his labors. I •:
Financed Work of Committee £
From the start the Jugo-Slav Na £
tional Defense has been abundantly £
able to help finance Jugo-Slav work.1'-:
I both in Europe and America. It has 1 £
_ met all the expenses of the Jugo-Slav £
:•£ committee of Dondon. Among the|£
:£• members are fifty millionaires. who £
££ have each contributed about fi,mM)!£
££ pesos every month for pro pa ! £
££ ganda purposes alone. Pasko Babu 'J
££ rizza. the president, is one of the lead i
•£ ing business men of Chile. He is cn-j •
££ gaged in saltpeter mining, and recently j j:
:£: has been interested in a project to!:
££ build a great harbor at Antofagasta •
•£: for the export of Bolivian saltpeter.,^
;£• When this is finished saltpeter ships ;
££ will be able to come into port and :
££ take their cargo from the wharves in- :
stead of anchoring some distance out •
_ from the shore. Nicholas Mihanovic, :
_ an Argentine business man, owns ::J7 •
merchant steamships and vessels, :
most of which ply between Montevideo j
and Buenos Aires and down the coast :
| of Argentina. VJekoslav Mltrovic is :
another Chilean who has become •
wealthy in the saltpeter trade. :
The most important single under
taking in South America started by
the Jugo-Slav National Defense was a
general boycott of German firms and
German goods. Knowing well the
weak spots in the fabric of German
industry in South America, the Jugo
slav business men attacked the
” Their efforts were helped by English,
French and American immigrants, and
” before long the boycott was system
atic and general. Before the end of
a year and a half German enterprise
££ in the South American republics was
paralyzed. :
Spy System Brought to Light
i? The bringing to light of the German j:
jiji spy system was a still greater service. •
So insidious was German espionage in :■
ij:j the South American states that it had •:
jij: poisoned many political parties anil ij
in some cases important government j:
jjjj officials. Without the ceaseless aid :■
jjj: of the Jugo-Slav National Defense jj
:j:j many of the German spies would have j:
quietly continued their work. One far- :j
:j:j tor that enabled the Germans to op- j:
|:i erate more freely was the unsettled jj
S Political status in a number of the jj
South American countries. Wherever j:j
j:j they saw their opportunity the tier
iji mans played their favorite game of J
j:j setting faction against faction and stir- :j:
| ring up discontent and strife, in a
jij surprisingly large number of Instances jjj
jij ihe German agents found their iji
schemes blocked by the Jugo-Slavs
Jugoslav immigration to South ij:
ij: America began in 1860. The political jij
jij revolutions in Austria sent large num- iji
ij: hers Into exile in that year, and again
:j in 1878. Most of those who went to j:j
j:j South America were from the coast iji
ij; and islands of Dalmatia. Of the 80.000 iji
j: Southern Slavs In South America, 7G,- jji
iji 000 are Dalmatians. So many of them :•:
jij left their native villages that more j:j
ij: than one village was half depopulated. ;j:
jj: For example, in Punta Arenas there jj:
:j:j are 2,000 immigrants from the Dalma- jjj
jjj: tian village of Supetar, with scarcely :•:
•jjj more than that number left in Supetar j:j
:j:j today. -j:
•jij Resides the political reason, there j;j
jjjj was also the economic reason which j:
jjj: banished many Dalmatians to find jj
•:j: homes In the now world. Those who j;
jiji went to Latin America have done con- ij
iji; slderably better, on the whole, than ij
S the 100,000 Jugo-Slavs from Dalmatia i
W who went to North America.
