TRICK BY GERMAN YOUTHS
LONDON, May 27. The Daily Mail’s Berlin correspondent reports that a new German trick has been exposed. Some time ago the Belgian authorities received complaints of the lawlessness of Belgian soldiers around Aix la Chapelle. It was alleged that officers and soldiers were visiting manor houses at night time and forcing residents to surrender money and valuables. When resistance was offered the soldiers used firearms and wounded several people. The police discovered that a. band of German youths had purloined Belgian uniforms and committed these outrages. The hand was arrested and imprisoned.
