Certain articles OF diet tend to check

"A GERMAN WHO

VERY PLAIN TALK

The following under the heading, "A

terest TO the people of this section:
Many times there have appeared re-
ports Of what the Germans are thinking
but a returned wounded British officer
has been so much impressed by what a
German prisoner said that he noted Il
down. The expression of opinion was
remarkably frank. The captured soldier
was OF German birth but he had spent
most Of his time in America, and there
was little about him to suggest any con-
nection with the Hun. Even his speech
did not betray the circumstance. With 4
refreshing candor ne stated his views

began it and thought they'd bring it OF;
but now they are the blood est murderers
that the world has ever produced. Thsre
never was anything like it before. They
know perfectly well that they have lost
the war; they have known for months
that their last chance was gone. But
they are frightened Of their own r1isera-

because they are frightened of what tire
people might do when they learned the
truth. they keep the thing going and sac

day. and millions Of money-for what?
To shield the regulations Of a handful Of
princes and politicians
The prisoners assertions that others
in Germany know the facts, he himself

been too free in expressing his opinions,
gives point TO the belief that when the
nation does recognize fully how it has
been sold for the sake Of Junkers. who
