INTERNED GERMANS
WHAT WILL BE DONE WITH , THEM? ■ What are we going to do with the German subjects we have interned when the war is over? This question arose hi tho course of one of tne many interesting discussions during the Chambers of Commerco Conference on' Thursday afternoon. .Mr. H. W. Hudson (Auckland) was rather concerned on the point, as lie held that such men were a danger' to the ' community. He knew there were some enemy subjects whoi had played tho game, and' whose sons had died alongside their own on the battlefield, but those who were now interned had been so dealt with becauso they worn dangerous. Were they going to be turn-. ed. ; loose on the community again? Ho trusted not. i They could never have dealings with them, for they could never .trust them■ more. How could uiev trust men who could see no fault in their people in perpetrating all the horrors that lie at their doors—the shooting of Captain- Fryatt, the sinking of the Lusitania, the murder of Nurse Cavnll. and the nameless, shameless brutalitie9 and crimes committed in Belgium and Northern Prance. 'The best thing woam Tie to ship them all back to their own country—repatriate them. Thev were not wanted here.
