WATsoN,s NEW ACCUSATION.

1t remains to be shown whether
there was just enough thread OF truth
to make Senator Watson's latest
charge relating to army nurses IN
France seem to be substantiated.
There undoubtedly is no basis what
ever for bringing such accusation in re-
gard to the A. L. F. nurses as a whole.
Surely the American people will refuse
to believe any such wholesale accusa-
ton on the comparatively meagre
proofs which Senator Watson has thus
far submitted. In this case, as in the
other with respect to wholesale hang
ings Of American soldiers without
trial, NWatsoai must prove his allega-
ton or be forever discredited. The
good name of the patriotic, self-sae-
rihcing, hieh-minded nurses who
worked TO untiringly for the relief OF
suffering abroad cannot be dragged
| into the mud in any such haphazard
manner as this recant statement of
Senator Watson drags them without
the American people rising up and de-
manding proof or exoneration. Wat
SON must present his proofs and it
must apply to more than few cases.
