NOT ALL BAD.
A GENERAL ON WARS. BRINGS OUT SOME GOOD. MANY EMERGE ENNOBLED. United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel.—Copyright. (Received Jan. 11, 9.5 a.m.) LONDON, Jan. 10. General Charlcris, the author of the “ Life of Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig,” and one of the late Field Marshal’s closest friends, speaking at Greenwich, deprecated the flood of war books and war plays, all going out of their way to show all the had and horrible things of war. He declared “War is had, horrible. Nobody who fought in France will wish to sec war again, but a soldier cannot help resenting the appearance of hook after book showing the had side of human nature. Despite the horrors, the war brought out in many ways the great good tilings in human nature. Many men returned ennobled.”
