II have been with armies on both

G.. Shepherd, war correspondent, in
Everybody's for March.
II have been in all the warning
countries except Rumania and Russia,
and after all that l have seen and
heard and learned, my once neutral
mind has settled into the Ally groove.
L am convinced that humanity will
gain more from an Allied victory than
from German success. Yet, in spite of
this, l am bound to say, knowing what
l do of the business of war news, that
every American who has based his
ideas of German atrocities in Belgium

free-lance days, is carrying a vast
amount of misinformation in his head.
II was in Belgium when the first
atrocity stories went out. l hunted and
hunted for atrocities during the first
days of the atrocity scare. / couldn't
find atrocities. I couldn't find people
who had seen them. / travelled on

graphs of children whose hands had
been cut off or who had been wounded
or injured in other ways,
Il never found a first-hand Belgian
atrocity storyi and when l ran down
the secondhand stories they all pc
tered out.
"Yet in those days there were news
paper men around me, spending their
time as l spent minet living in the
same hotel with me, eating at the same
cafes and often at the same table,
making the same news rounds that l
made, who were sending their daily
budget of atrocity stories back to the
United States; l am only telling the
truth when l say that the first Belgian
atrocity stories to reach the United
States from Belgium were those of
certain correspondents whose reputa-
tions among American newspapermen
are those of arch-fakers, and VINO,
since the early days in Belgium have
lied about so many other things thaC
