The Prussian caste spirit has not
been curbed by Germany's fearful
losses, according to n scathing article
which appeared in the "Koelnische
Zeitung." the semi-offical Prussian
bureaucracy organ. Under the caption
1.-THE Purse-Pride of the Stay
Homes" the paper attacks German sum
mer resorts and watering places when
exclude wounded German soldiers come
to recuperate.
The article says:
There are between 500 and 500
wounded soldiers in Ems. The guest
who goes TO the afternoon concerts at
the Kurgarten sees hundreds of our
brave soldiers lined up outside the
gates. The watchmen block all their
efforts 10 gain admittance. They have
received the ironclad instruction from
the management not TO let within the
gates any wounded soldier in hospital
uniform
unfortunately, these poor boys
rarely have any other clothing at their
disposal. Why did the management
give these instructions? Just because
five fine gentlemen, civilian guests, re
monstrated that the sight of the
wounded in hospital uniforms and with
dispensary odor affected them dis
agreeably while taking the cure"
Editorally the "Koelnische Zeitung'
comments:
"The occurrence Of this shameful
episode unfortunately cannot be dis
puted 1t ought TO drive the blush Of
shame and modification into the cheeks
of every honest German to know that
there are such conditions existing in
the German fatherland.
Ought 20 Respect Field Gray.
"To whom ought these five noble
gentlemen be obligated for the privi-
lege of being able to take the cure at
all if not 70 the brave boys at the
front. who sacrificed everything in or
der to hold the boundaries of our
fatherland against the onrushing
hordes. Something certainly ought to
be done to make repetition of such a
diSgraceful occurrence impossible The
field gray of our boys ought to be re
spected everywhere, and the hospital
gray ought TO be a marked sign Of
honor. Cannot the government step IN
to adopt measures which will open all
gates and remove all barriers to our
fighting lads when they come home to
recuperate ~

"A successful allied advance on the

Meanwhile the Turkish A,iatic bat.

crude and wasteful. They are lacking

Withdrawn his army from the battle
