GENERALLY SAYS GERMAN
BY WILBUR S. FORREST.
(United Ptms Staff Correspondent.)
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.
