FALSE REPORTS EXPOSED
BY THOMAS M. JOHNSON.

Copyright. 1918. All rights reserved)
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. May 15.-The presiding
geniuses who concoct the daily Ger
man war Offices official communique
are trying to scare the American
people through the American news
papers. They are choosing the simple
means Of stating on every occasion
that they have caused heavy losses to
the Americans. whether in actual
fighting. by bombardment. gas attack
or what not. That is the inevitable
p, conclusion from various recent events.
| For example, in one raid the Ger
mans made upon trenches held by the
| Americans a while ago their COM
/ munique emphasized the fact that
"our artillery fire cost the Americans
sanguinary losses" On the day OF
the raid we knew that the German
! losses had been greater than ours. A
little later prisoners captured on three
different occasions. in as many diner
gave us almost the same figure Tor
the German losses and the figure was
a little over twice our own.
| On another occasion the German
communicate reported that. let US say.
south Of A and north Of B we In
hicted heavy losses on the Ameri-
cans by a trench mortar lombard
ment." 1t SO happens that north OF
! B there was a German trench NOR
tar reinforcement that day, which
wounded two men. South of A there
were on that day absolutely no Amer
ican troops in the line. Both these
things happened. The only thing that
| is altered is the names Of the places.
mont forest and Seicheprey fight are
further examples OF the same idea.
