The Germans who are trying to col-
lect an account from a French widow,
who refuses to pay until the Kaiser is
brought into court on a charge of
murdering her husband, have a small

French lady’s money; All idea of
trying the kaiser for his crime appears
to have been abandoned. He will
nuver be brought to court. On the
other hand this generation of the
French will never forgive the Germans
