With the passing of the third an-
niversary of the slaking of the Lusi
tania one is reminded that for more
than three 'year's—if reminder be „ne-
cessary of the time—the IJ -boat com-
mander has, continued his ruthless
slaughter of innocent seamen, appa-
rently unperturbed: by that greatest'
of seaatrocities effectively laid to
the charge of the German navy,

tinued to fire. Three of the crew
jumped overboard and were drowned,
while three others on the deck were
killed by gunfire and several were
wounded.
Finally the destroyer hailed the
UC -39 through a megaphone to stop,
and this being done, fire ceased and
seventeen German survivors were
taken"oft by the destroyer. Two Brit
fish prisoners were also rescued unin-
jured.
In addition to`vin details of the
� g
attacks of the UC -39 and her destruc-
tion by the British destroyer, the
Dutch correspondent states that he
has been able to ascertain that among
the U-boat men there is not at all a
sanguine feeling regarding the results
of the German "blockade," The men
who do the actual work are not im-
bued with the confidence of Von
Tir-
pitz, and theyalso express contempt
for the views of the German press on
the .efficacy of the, U-boat weapon
against Great Britain.
Crews Know Force Opposing Them.
Some of the crews, in the course
of their depredations, have been able
to get British newspapers showing
the shipping output of the Allies, and
in addition they know the strength of
es against them; the fore g and what the
German`public'does not know, the
number of U-boats which never re-
turn.
The correspondent adds that he re-
cently saw a letter from a German.
soldier to the effect that even if a
thousand submarines were available
England would not be ;defeated, from
which it would appear that the knovvl
edge of the /limitations ' of the IS -

but "camouflage" remains as 'French

ever, it has become so elastic as to be

Another French word which also
gets its full value in the Anglo-Saxon

has no general usage. The word.
"raid," in as old as the Seottisb border,

said "air raid," but now "raid" alone

any other way of hitting at the heart
of us there will be another word than
"raid" to describe his efforts. And to
these I would add that early flower of
Armageddon speech, "moratorium,";

HUN BRUTALITY TO PRISONERS.
German Gloats Over Shooting of
Wounded British Captives.
Another account of German barbar-
ity to prisoners comes from Switzer-
land. A neutral formerly living in
Berlin, met a sergeant in the German
army who had seemed humane in the
old days when he was a music teach-
er, but now gloated over the manner
in which he and his companions had
marched a large detachment of Brit-
ish wounded through Germany. The
captors were mounted, the prisoners
afoot, trudging) to 30 miles a day.
"When they lagged," the sergeant
said, "we drew our revolvers and shot
them down. Out of 900 only 170 ar-
rived at our destination. That is war,
