AMSTERDAM. June 14.-One of the
Official war loan advertisements now
appearing in the German newspapers
gives an unintended glimpse Of the
German rule in occupied countries. 1t
says:
How can any German still hesitate
u subscribe for the war loan? You
who are faint-hearted, go and ask the
Beigians, the Serbians. the Russians,
tho Italians. what II means to have
the enemy In the country. Do you not
realize that 1t is your support OF the
loan only that can keep the horrors
of an enemy occupation from Germany's
soil?,
