An illustration of the German disregard for the laws of war and humanity can be found in an incident which occurred the other ni^ht near Houtholst forest. The British heard cries of "stretcher bearers" from No Man's Land. It naturally was assumed that a wounded man was call ing Tor help and Red Cross bearers, rushed through the darkness to render assistance. They ware shot down , by German snipers who used this ruse to entice them into the open. Murder Red Croc* Worker*. There have been many other cases recently in which German snipers have shot down Red Cross workers 1< libcralely, not withstanding the fact that German Red Cross workers lave been permitted to work unmolested.
