FIGHTING
MEN BEING TOLD OF
GERMAN CRUELTIES

Washington, Dec. 26.-The idea that
America Is making war on the German
government, not on the German peo-
pie, is gradually being displaced
among the country's fighting men to-
day.
The American soldier. at home and
abroad, is being warned OF the treach-
cry and the brutality practiced by the
German soldier. coming as he does
from the mass of the German people.
Through bulletins and lectures, the
stories Of German atrocities are being
made known to the men In both Amer
lean and European camps form3
bulletin telling of an American whose
throat was cut after he had been TAX
en- prisoner by the Germans In q
trench raid, is an example OF this.
United Press dispatches from the
American headquarters In France. i'm
mediately following the raid on the
trench in which three Americans were
killed and several captured. told of one
of the men being found with his throat
cut.
But this story and others of SIM
liar nature are now being called to
the attention of the men who will soon
be meeting the Germans in battle.
In line with the education Of the
American soldiers as TO the purposes
and causes of the war. one Camp Lee
ofYicer has requested that the govern
ment furnish him with a quantity of
literature. telling Of the battle prac-
tees Of the Germans to incorporate in
his lectures. He said that among
some Of the mountain men under his
charge there was q surprising lack Of
knowledge Of the war causes and aims.
