"I Shot My Own Men"-

A General

His Jaws set at the parade ground angle, Brigadier General F. P. Crozier levelled his brown eyes at me and snapped-

"Yes, every word of it is true.... I was responsible for killing them all-my Own comrades....It was

himself in "the as- tounding revelations of British soldiers being executed for deser- tion, made in his new book, The Men 1 Kled."

"CHURCHES HELP WAR"

He has dedicated his book "to the genuine fighters of all nations who stuck it to the end in the front line and to the genuine con- scientious objectors of all nations who stuck it to the end in gaol."

"During the war when it fell to my lot to recommend the carrying out of the death sentence, i in- variably recommended the carry- ing out of the extreme penalty- because I expected to be shot my- self if I ran away," he writes.

"Crockett died at our hands.... He was brave. He showed no malice. He was cheerful almost to the end-but not quite to the bitter end. I made him drunk some nours before his execution to ease his living misery:

"I saw the execution and the whole battalion heard it on parade. a wall screening the victim from the men's view....Death, despite the precautions, was not instantaneous.

After I had read this, I asked General Crozier if, us a pacifist, ne was not now distressed at the re- collection.

"Not at all," he answered. "It was war and it was my job.

That was only one of the Britons the General killed. Here are other extracts:-

"Strictly from the milltary point of view, I have no regrets for having killed a subaltern of British infantry on the same morning that I ordered our British guns and rifles to turn on the fleeing Por-

"I know something about KI- ing. Alas. I know far too much. I want to tell you of the execu- con of a private soldier, carried out in accordance with the law of the land and at the direction of the Commander-in-Chief of the British Armies in France.

The execution was carried out by me, almost in person. And 1 saw him 'die.

Most of the machines entered for this year's race have been seen in previous races. Among the new ones are the T.K.4. designed and built by the students of the de Havilland school, and the C.W.A

Gloucestershire gained 1 lne victory by three wickets over Wor- cestershire at Cheltenham. They owed nearly everything to two men-Hammond and his captain, B. O. Allen. This pair came toget-said: her overnight when Gloucester- shire, needing 317 to win, lost two wickets for 15, and not until the total had reached 284 were they separated. They raised the score by 76 and by putting on 289 in 4 hours and 5 minutes, practically assured their side of success.

Their performance on a WorTi wicket was remarkable. for the spin bowlers found it possible to make the ball turn sharply. Allen, however, concentrated largely upon defence while Hammond, waiting for the right ball to punish, hit hard all round the wicket. His share of the partnership amount- ed to 178, and his first bad stroke brought about his dismissal through a catch in the slips. He completed 100 in 110 minutes, but as the pitch became increasingly difficult, he was forced to slacken his rate of scoring. His 13th cen- tury of the season contained 19 4's. Allen batted a quarter of an hour longer for his 78. Except that. when. 59, he was beaten by a ball from Jackson that went for four byes, be made no mistake. After the big stand was broken, Jackson caused a breakdown, and when the seventh wicket fell three runs were still required, but these were

scored without further loss.
