RED CROSS WORK REFUSED BY
GERMAN COMMANDER

Rotterdam, Aug. 14.-The splendid
Dutch Red Cross organization is par
alyzed because its efforts to relieve
the suffering of the hundreds of Ger
mans and Belgians wounded is pre-
vented by the German commander of
the armies now in Belgium. He re-
fuses to allow the Red Cross to pene-
trate his lines. German wounded
will not be permitted to be removed
to Dutch territory. because, if they
are, and recover, they must remain
non-combatants until the war ends.
And because of the necessity of con-
cealing his own losses, admitted very
heavy, the German commander re-
fuses permission for the Dutch Red
Cross to collect and care for the
wounded Belgians within his lines.
