HUN BRUTALITY
MAGYAR OFFICERS' CRIME
Mr Robert Bridges, in a poem on the inhuman treatment of British war prisoners, satirises craven Germany, in which no man was found with spirit enough to cry shame. "But on such sin fellows perdition eternal, and it has begun." Mr Jeffries quotes an example of unsurpassed enemy spite and brutality. Two English airmen fell with their machine aflame. Hungarian officers found one living. They slashed his face with knives and kicked him till he was dead, declaring that this was fit treatment for an Englishman.
