Roger Fry, an American, writes, thus from ta Source on the Marno: "Imagine the country here an absolute heap of ruins, but much more crowded than Pompeii. The whole countrysido is a scene of desolation. Please don't let good pacifists talk about the lamentable horrors of war! The destruction here has heon highly organised, - deliberate, and, as far as I can sec, entirely wanton, serving no kind of military purpose. Tho Germans become entirely inexplicable to mo except as a case of collective madness. I have never seen anything like this. It boats all ono could imagine."
