An American who was permitted to visit Krupp’s, says the utmost cautions are taken. He entered a room with many mirrors upon pillars, and his every movement was noted while telephoning to Berlin for confirmation of his credentials. He saw the monster 42-centimetre guns, loaded on their powerful steel cars. Krupp workers, formerly 36,000, were now 46,000. Amsterdam, April 18. The Berliner Tageblatt publishes, without comment, a warm tribute ot a returned member of a Zeppelin crew to the kindness with which Germans in England are treated.
