only guess. That Germany was the
only country that could say. He said
that the foreign press in Germany as
well as other countries, was so CEN
sored that the truth could not be
known. He said that there were many
reports Of all kinds in France the same
as there is in this country and that
you can take very little stock in any
thing that you hear or read, except
when it comes thru government sour
ces. He said that the old saying "War
