MWWW“ 20 YEARS AGO ) - < 0 MAY 29, 1920 Contrary to report that all canneries in Alaska would restrict their ’lorics. Consequently, air bombardments have taken many civilian victims. Once a city is used for defense purposes, as War- saw was in the Polish campaign, its immunity to aerial bombardment is forfeited. Likewise, when a seaport is used for landing troops, the bombardment of docks and railway stations becomes “legitimate.” [ On the seas, of course, Germany has followed an irresponsible, cruel, and .illegal policy throughout, sinking merchant ships without warning and straf- ing the decks of fishing boats by fire from aircraft. But on land the principal rules of war have been ob- ved more often than not by both sides. How long this will continue, anybody's guess. One of the most pertinent rules of war just now is that forbidding soldiers to disguse themselves as| civilians or as troops of a side not their own. Ger- many has flouted this rule extensively, landing para-| chute troops disguised as Dutch and British soldiers, | as civilians—and according to Lord Halifax,| though this and disguised also as priests and women, staggers the imagination. The laws of war provide for the death penalty for soldiers caught in disguise. One may be certain this penalty will be exercised by the Allied forces whenever German soldiers in disguise are caught.
