AsE OF LUSITANA
SHOWS THIS WARS HORRORS

The case OF the Lusitania shows
With horrible clcarncsS to what jeop-
nrdizinE of human lives tho manner
OF conducting war employed by our
adverSarics leads. In the most direct
contradiction OF international law. all
distinctions between merchantmen and
war vessels have been obliicratcd by
the order TO British merchantmen to
arm themselves and to ram submarines
and the promise OF rewards therefor.
and neutrals who use merchantmen as
travellers thereby have been exposed
in an increasing degree To all the dan
gers of war.
4 IF the commander Or the German
submarine which destroyed the Lusi-
tania had caused the crew and pas
scngerS TO take TO the boats before
firing torpedo. this would have meant
the sure destruction Of his own vessel.
