In the occupation of this country, the
| MaiorIGeneral commanding desires to i'm
press upon the officers and soldiers of this
command the fact that tho warts over, and
in future no foragng or lawless appropria-
ton Of private property will be tolerated.
IL 4. IA - In
years, you should not permit your glorious
record to be sullied by lawless acts for by
SO doing, you would change tho admiration
Of the world into contempt. 1t is the mis-
sion OF the army to assist in the restoration
Of law and order, confidence and good feel
ing among the people. II would be ungen-

that The GUruvIity VI -rrs,;ind- -Statea IL
established and acknowledged over the
whole country, and that the prosperity Of
O part is the prosperity of the whole. In
every way, therefore, the utmost care will
DO taken to teach the Inhabitants that we
arc their friends and not theirenemies, and
that wherever the authority Of the United
States extends, there is ample security for
person and property.
No seizures Of property will be made IN
any case without written Instructions from
competent authority, and commanding ofh-
GERS will be held responsible for the good
conduct of their men. When in camp there
will always be an effective system of camp
| and police guards, and no man will be per-
riitted to leave camps, except upon the pass
of the regimcntal commander. The various
camps will be located with view to the
health Of the troops, and their sanitary
