Last to the Hun Scream

The German press shrieks the discovery
that arms taken from regiment Of Ameri-
can troops prove to be sawed-off shotguns
carrying buckshot, contrary to the Geneva
convention.
If our troops are using weapon en-
ployed against express car bandits who has
better right to complain than the Germans!
They have merely introduced poison gas and
liquid fire; poisoned wells; left man traps in
retreat; torpedoed merchant ships carrying
women and children as passengers; set saw
age dogs and equally savage keepers on pris-
oners of war; sunk hospital ships and
bombed field hospitals, and taken civil pris-
oners, women and children, into slavery.
Their regard for Geneva rules and Hague
rules is we'll known. They began by tearing
up their Belgian treaty as scrap of paper,
and they have continued by aiding their
Turkish and Bulgarian allies in exterminat-
ing the Serbian, Roumanian and Armenian
population OF coveted territory. Levying IL
legal requisitions and hacking down fruit
trees and pillaging converts are minor
pleasantries.
Upon a Christian nation thus scrupulous
to fault in making war those inhuman
Americans descend with new ways and wiles.
Whether they use shotguns or not, they GER
tainly aim rifles with disconcerting skill and
do not blush to stalk maehine-gun nests In
dian fashion instead of walking conhdingly
I'D to be shot. No wonder the Germans
whose gentle manners are the amazement of
the world. elamor for justice-New York
