Buenos Aires, Sept. 14.
Proof that huge subsidies are being paid to Axis news agencies by their respective governments, to finance propaganda activity, is provided by the third report of the Argentine Parliamentary Investigation Committee for Pro-German Activities. The report shows that in a certain period Transocean received from Berlin 1,000,000 pesos, whereas local receipts during that period did not exceed 26,000 pesos.
Similarly it is shown that other agencies, the Correa Periodistico, Sud-Americano and the Euroamerica, during a corresponding period, have made no profits in South America and are yearly spending enormous sums. In one month alone, during which only six hundred pesos were received by Transocean 20,000 pesos were spent.
It is also disclosed that Euroamerica has been subsidized by the Italian Government, as well as agencies of less importance.—Reuter.
