POW diaries - Captain Percival Lowe, item 58

  X  It was in this Camp that I first made the acquaintance

  of a scurulous paper called "the Continental Times." Printed

  it was said for Americans on the Continent. It was by far the

  most anti English paper printed in Germany. The Germans at

  all the camps tried to persuade the English to take in copies.

  But no one was paying for it. Often however we obtained a

  free copy. In some way it was as good as Punch. The

  German has no sense of humour.

  
  

  X  The method was thus obvious.
