4 ,uceau, calling himself a man Of
& sace, answered some of his Ameri-
On critics to-day by producing
St of forty-five instances of the dis
nyery in Germany of hidden war
rsteriel, sufficient, in his opinion, to
smip two army corps.
aThey are to be used how" the
flyer asked his audience this after
roon in the Auditorium Theater.
Then, answering his own question,
Thy, against us-France! There
nnnot be anybody else"
There was q bite of sarcasm in the
u mans voice when he exclaimed:
You have had your soldiers killed.
ssn spent your money lavishly. You
i'd that to get something. Now. if
5au have not got it, may / ask you
shat you did it for? I do not want
ii make the situation worse than it
ls simply want to show 1t to you as
I'D as 1t is"
