INSULTS TO ENGLAND
IN SWEDISH PRO-GERMAN PRESS
PARTIALITY OF THE LAW
COURTS.
(Received August 16, 11 a.m.) LONDON, 15th August.
The newspapers are paying serious at tention to the partiality shown by the Swedish Administration of Justice respecting war articles in the Swedish press. Pro-German papers have published scurrilous attacks on England. One of them described her as a shameless robber, who stripped her victims, trampled on treaties and oaths, and was guilty of the basest hypocrisy; and also applauded the German battleory, "Gott Strafe England." The Courts insisted that there are no means of punishing these insults. On the other hand a nowspaper which denounced the Brest-Litovsk Treaty was heavily fined.
