PENS OF EUROPE
 UPHOLD ENTENTE
(Continued from First Page.)

newspaper but as they had said they could not continue the conver- sation even indirectly with enemies who treated them so badly it Is to neutrals they addressed their attem pt at defense. For the two notes, we see today are but bad pieces of spe- cial pleading of counsel who realize the iury's verdict must inevitably be against their clients.
 "As to their comparison of the way they treated Belgians and Serbs with Great Britain's treatment of Ireland and the Translava, it is only noces- sary to point out that there are 300,- GOO Irish, all volunteers, in the Brit ish army and that General Botha con- uuered German west Africa while an- other Boer general is now completing the conquest of German East Africa.
 "The pretense that the employm ent of native troops is a grievance against the Allies is simply grotesque or the part of the power which allied her. self with Turkey and approved, en- couraged and directed the massacre of Armenians."
 Stephen Pinchon in the Petit Jour nal writes: Belgium is again ac- cused of violating her own neutrality because she tried to defend 1t. We are once more charged with respon- sibility for bloodshed which followed the refusal to subscribe to the en- slaving of Europe. At each fresh piece of effrontery from the Germanic governments we say they surely can- not invent any thing more hateful, only to be obliged to admit we have
 
 imagination for cynical falsehood."
 The Matin says: Tt is impossible that the Berlin government is not aware that this ridiculous document will have an effect diam metrically op- posed to its object. Our note of De- cember 30 was plain refusal to dis cuss peace without solid guarantees from a faithless, lawless race"
