Paris, June 7 "We are not making war solely against the French army and French territory but against Frenchmen generally, your women, children ar.d everything that belongs to the French blood and race." This is what the Geiman commanding of ficer in Noyon told Senator Noel, mayor of Noyon, before the Ger- j mam sacked the town. Shortly be ifore the destruction began, the com jmander rummor.ea Noel and demand ed that he nam.- ipecifk instances of senseless atrocities and vandalism committed by the kaiser's troops. Noel put in 15 minutes the time al lowednaming instance after in stance with full details. The crimes charged included rape, burglary, as sault, arson and murder. After hav ing listened, the commander excused such conduct by saying his country men were warring against "French blood and race." One of the instances cited was the case of little Andre La bo t, a child who was beaten with a cane for failing to salute an officer, then forced to salute a dummy draped with a German uniform until he fell exhausted, and was finally bay onetted and killed.
