JUST|f|ES EXECUTION
OF ENGLISH WOMAN

BERLIN (by Wireless), Oct. %
The North German Gazette, official
organ of the government, today de-
clared the execution of Miss Edith
Cavell at Brussels was entirely justi-
fled, she having been convicted Of
treason.
The Gazette compares the English
woman's case with that of a French
girl who was praised in an editorial in
the Manchester Guardian on October
Is, for shooting two German soldiers
from behind, and adds:
Such deeds are contrary to the
laws of warfare, though glorified by
the English press. If this girl had
been taken by our troops and shot
as would be just, the English press
would never cease to speak about
the barbarian manner in which the
Germans make war; just as at the
present time when an English woman
had been executed In Belgium after
having been found guilty Of treason" :"
