HUN LETTER INSOLENCE
Encouraged by the speeches of pacifist M.P.s, which they are allowed to read in. the English papers (&ays the Daily Mail), interned Germans as well as enemy prisoners of war in England have- started a now form of propaganda. Lettera are being received by people in different parts of, the country from Germans with whom they have associated beforo the war in such terms as these: —
"Soon we shall have peace, and I ihope that this unfortunate war will not make any difference in our friendship."
"I am looking forward to the time when. wo shall meet agnin an in the old happy days and resume business relations."
One enterprising German even, offers terms for re-establishing a trading connection, and another proposes o. deal in foreign stamps. *• ■ The- letters bear the official oensor's stamp at the buck, and are distributed by the Postmaster-General free of charge. This fresh evidence of German activity is to be tho subjeot of an- official investigation.
