"I did not think," he said, "I should ever live to read books written by my own countrymen, which are like the dirty work done by enemy propagan lists. I am profoundly distressed at the popular novels and plays repre- senting our soldiers at the front.

"I have read most of the war books, and I say deliberately that the men at the front-our young officers-were not drunk most of the time. Men like myself, who anw what went on there, know that, it would not have been possible for officers, whatever their inclination, to have been drunk time after time.”

Disgusted

He said that he had read "Al Quiet on the Western Front," Perhaps some of them were thrilled by it. So was he, and disgusted too. It might be a fair representation of the Ger- man soldier, but he doubted it, and it was certainly not true of his own countrymen. The British soldier need- ed no one to apologise for him.
