GERMANY'S MOST COLD- BLOODED CRIME.
THE STARVATION OF BELGIUM.
In the far-off days when pence ouch more ahall shine upon the world there will be a vast deal of discussion no doubt, of German cruelty. We shall wondor by which deed of darkness it was that Germany rose to the pinnacle of its guilty eminence. Some will award the sinister prize to the wanton mur- der of

THE ORDEAL OF PRESIDENT WILSON.
PRO-GERMANS AND THEIR INTRIGUES.
"The Ordeal of Woodrow Wilson" and The Attitude of a Great Neutral People during the War" are the subject of a most interesting article by Mr. Chalmers Roberts, the editor, in the March issue of World's Work.
The writer, who has just returned from a visit to the Sites, says American Sentiment is overwhelmingly on the side of the Allies, but he points out that there are my strong pro-German influences at work.
THE TRO GERMANK.
Of the pro-Germans (ho writes), Americans of femman origin and descent form the great majority. It seems that about one-half of these are active in promoting movements for desort, and not even the salaried reporters of sympathy with the Fatherland. The greatest her reptile Press could call it peace. Such strength which the legitimate pro-German Belgiau & were fortunate enough to escape of German-Jewish bankers in New York, with element can muster is exercised by a group found in exile a tranquillity which the in- vnder forbade them to enjoy in their own channels for propagands stretching through land. Those who remained behind are learn-out the length and breadth of the country. ing in huizer and oppression, what it means to come beneath the heel of a barbarian..

IMPRESSIONS OF LONDON IN WAR TIME.
BY A FAR EASTERN RECRUIT.
In a letter received from Mr. G. Bowden, » Japan resident who volunteered for service. and has since been granted a commission, he mentions that in going across France from Marseilles, where he left the steamer, the principal thing that struck him was the prevalence of mourning. "There was hardly a woman of the middle or upper classes," he says, "who was not in black. Also of course very few young men to be seen about. Otherwise things looked fairly normal." Mr. Bowden's references to London are also of interest, coming as they do from one to
