TO the Editor of The News:
1t is easy to prove the outrageous and long
suffering bzrbzritiss upon the tupuus mt tine
hands OF Spain, and 1t Is also easy for Spain
TO prove the abominable criminal lynching OF
hundreds OF comparatively innocent victims
in this country who under the law. should
certainly not be killed until proved guilty OF
the alleged crimes.
First cast out the beam from thine own eye,
and then shalt thou seq more clearly to cast

innocens victims. as arc the Cubans at tho
