(printed in black): 18650-German Prisoners Under Guard of French Soldiers. /
One of the great problems of war is the / caring for the prisoners, as these men (as well / as the army) must be provided for and fed. / From the beginning of the war the humane / treatment of German prisoners by the French / and British has contrasted sharply with authen-/tic reports of cruel, inhuman treatment of pris-/oners in Germany.
