any people.
Tho growing callousness to finer instincts and chiv

giving the crews and passengers of the non-combatant
merchantmen a chance to get away in lifeboats before they

The charred ruins of Louvain stand as a monument to

the Russians were revenging themselves for the ruin of

spirit that war develops the blood lust of the destroyer.
"Without a doubt, if the allies cross the Rhine, Germany
will become as much of a shambles as the Germans have
