commercial one. Before the war grain
alcohol. which had 10 pay very heavy

ed, show the reverse to be true. German White Book Re
 veals Atrocities

It has been said that the pub lication of this German White Book was "an amazing official blunder. The neutral world, whose good opinion Germany sought, was not convinced by it that the Belgians had commit ted the atrocities with which the Germans charged them. On the other hand, this White Book, published by the German Government, will be accepted | by everyone as conclusive evi- dence of the massacres and oth- CT brutal deeds which were car ried out as "reprisals" by the orders of the German military authorities in Belgium. The names of German officers who gave the terrible orders are published officially and fire quently the very men themselv- es come forward and depose coldly and callously to acts which have degraded the Ger man Army and left a stain up- on it's banners that (future) generations of chivalry will not efface."
 Indeed in the light of the ad- missions of the German White Book, it is not too much to say that the time has already come which was spoken of by Presi- dent Wilson in his dispatch to President Poincare, September 19, 1914, when he said Speak ing for "a nation which abhors inhuman practices in the con- duct of war"):
 "The time will come when ! this great conflict is over and when the truth can be impar- tially determined. When that time arrives those responsible for the violations of the rules of civilized warfare, if such viola tions have occurred, and for false charges against their ad- versaries, must of course bear the burden of the judgment of the world"
