German Methods Condemned In Joint Statement Paris, Apr. 17.
Startling details of German atrocities committed during the Polish hostilities were revealed today in a series of documents and photographs published in the form of a Polish "Black Book."
The authenticity of the documents, it was emphasized here, was carefully checked and testified to by u number of neutral observers, In à foreword to the volume, M. Edouard Herriot, President of the French Chamber of Deputies, asserted:
"We who still believe that there are many people of conscience in Germany who brand such infamous action, read these: documents with a feeling of shame for mankind. We wonder how men who perpetrated such crimes can still consider themselves civilized."
Simultaneously with publication of the *Black Book," the British, French and Polish Governments issued a joint statement formally condemning Germany's methods of warfare against Poland.—Havas.
