Another example. In February 1915--that is, when no honest German could any longer believe in the legend of the gouged-out eyes--_Vorwärts_ protested against a little work by a Pastor Conrad, of which 150,000 examples were printed and sold at 8 pfennigs per copy to school-children, in which the Belgians were still accused of having blinded their prisoners (_N.R.C._, 12th February, morning edition). The Berlin Government also acts as though it was ignorant of the conclusions of its own commissions of inquiry. Wishing to refuse General Leman, a prisoner in Germany, the privilege of receiving a visit from his daughter, it based its refusal on the atrocities of which German soldiers have been the victims in Belgium, and on the inhuman fashion in which the Belgians have treated the wounded and prisoners in their hands. The second accusation is as ill-founded as the first. The German soldiers taken prisoner by the Belgians were interned in Bruges; they made no complaints, far from it (pp. 56-8); as for the wounded in our hospitals, here are precise facts. Let us quote, first of all, from the correspondence published in the _Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant_, giving a few details from letters written by the German wounded under treatment in Antwerp. _How the Belgians treat their German Prisoners._ A private correspondent writes to us from Antwerp:-- The fact of knowing that the prisoners of war of the belligerent States are treated as well as possible should also touch the hearts of the Dutch.... I give you here some extracts from the letters of wounded Germans under treatment in the hospitals of Antwerp. I am in a very good Belgian hospital and they treat me very well. KARL HINTZMAN, Military Hospital, Antwerp. I am very well looked after and have very good food. GEORG STORCK. They treat us very well in Belgium. What the German papers said in the summer about the Belgians is utterly untrue. The Germans could not look after us better. Moreover, the nation is highly developed. FRANZ CRAUWERSKI. A number of comrades are here. We are extraordinarily well looked after. Everybody is very kind to us. RICHARD KUSTERMANN. Several comrades of my company are here. I am very well looked after. One could not look after us better in Germany. PETERS. We could not hope for better care. WALTER SCHUMANN. The medical treatment is very good. We are sounded every day, and our wounds are dressed daily. The doctors are very capable here. We have food in abundance; all is excellent. HOSSBACH, SÖLLIGER (Braunschweig).
