CHAINED CAPTIVES
MOTIVES OF GERMANS BRITAIN AWAITS REPLY (11 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 19. The Germans have not yet replied to the British offer not to fetter German prisoners of war if the Germans do not fetter British captives, says the diplomatic correspondent of The Times. It is understood that the Government is disregarding the German High Command document. It reveals more clearly than hitherto the ulterior German motives. The document has two main purposes, hatred against Britain and the use of allegations for a wider threat against Allied prisoners of war.
The Turkish newspaper Aksam Yenisabah suggests that Turkey should mediate between Britain and Germany on the question of chaining of prisoners.
