SOCIALISTS DOUBT
"ATROCITY" STORIES

SDscid' cdbie Despatch to TuE srS.


LONDON. Sept. 1.-The Berlin Vor-
lcaCrtS. the Socialist organ. in its issue
OF August % prints IA cautiously worded
protest against the policy advocated by
the militarist newspapers OF making
"frightful examples" Of the civilians of
Belgium and France for attacks on Ger
man troops.
The IOrtcdcrtS points out that little
reliance can be placed on the stories
of atrocities committed by civilians as
circulated in the newspapers because
the stories are second hand and third
hand and are written under the stress
of excitement.
Moreover" the Torrdcrts continues.
every peasant shooting at the invaders
is animated by the sentiment of defend
ing his home and property"
The Socialist organ points out that
the law OF Prussia actually enjoins the
Landsturm to harass and attack the In
vader as much as possible. and pre-
sCribes that the Landsturm shall not be
uniformed so as to facilitate such at
lacks.
The Toricderts warns against the
danger Of putting the German cause in
a wrong tight before the eyes Of the
world and appeals to the members OF
the working class in the army to remem-
Der their brethren on the other side and
treat them Chivalrously.
The VorirdcrtS expresses amazement
that some German newspapers regard
the destruction Of Louvain with gay
satisfaction.
