THY TO POT YANKS IN BAD Anti-American PrApagknda Published In German Newspapers Purport* to Give Feelings of Germans in Occupied Area. Ooblenz.Considerable anti-Ameri ca* ftfopaganda is being published in fierman newspapers by German news gpper men who have visited the Rhine one occupied by the American army. Seme of theft writings set forth what farports to be their own opinions of the feelings of the Germans in the oe* capied territory. The writings of one German In a Delpslc newspaper have/ aiforded amusement to tha* American intelli gence officers, though he wrote with the evident lntentibn 'to put Americans Sa a bad light before the German civil ians. "On account of the sundry annoying sets of the authorities," he writes, "the population is not at ill satisfied w4th the American (occupation and- is toad In its abuse of these molestations, taough, to be sure, this is all kept within closed walls. Nobody dares to nuke any criticism in public since re- *t heavy sentences were imposed on those guilty of careless rumors." Truth About Food. Civilian visitors from unoccupied ermany expect to find great stocks of isod In all stores, many coming to the eenipied area with the hope of secur ing supplies for themselves and taking them back with them. This is not al lowed. Regarding food the writer In the Lelpalc newspaper says: "There have been all kinds of stories la Leipsic recently about the marvel ens- things one can purchase in thebusiness American occupied territory. It was related that American stores had been established where all kinds of food was sold at unbelievably low prices. That is all very true but the German Inhabitants are permitted only to look at all these beautiful articles. They ae boy nothing. Everything Is for the troops only. And only to be gazed at by th Germans are the doughnuts, the savory odors of which fill the city of 'CktPlSSS ifld wjfejeb. are. baked, ^fjrojn Peculiar to Wome early morning until fate at night by the American soldiers In no less than twenty great bakeries." The writer also touches on the work of the military police, saying: "A very unpleasant institution in Coblenz Is the spy system- Possession of Ameri can property Is forbidden. Whoever buys from American soldiers cigar ettes, food, shoes and clothing and is caught with the goods Is punished with a drastic fine or prison sentence." Yanks Very Proper. Summarizing, after writing several columns, the writer says In conclu sion "Disregarding the arrogant behavior of the conqueror, the Americans in Coblenz and the bridgehead on the right of the Rhine conduct themselves in a very proper manner. Of course there are cases of disturbances by soldiers now and then, but if an Amer ican soldier tries to assault a German and a military policeman is near enough to arrest the soldier one may rest assured that the military court will punish the American accordingly. "All in all, Judgment of the Ameri cans may be summed up thus: They do not In reality behave worse than would any other army of occupation, although the soldiers do annoy the populationannoy It In many respects. And that Is a' desirable state of af fairs. Thereby the idea of separation, which has already made considerable progress here and there in the Rhine land, will lose more and more of Its supporters, and It will be easier for the people of the Rhineland to remain a part of the empire."
