Americans Gained Thejr Point

Brussels, Dec. 4. The government
has decided that Americans residing in
Belgium will hereafter be exempt from
service in the civil guard. The Bel
gium government proposed to compel
foreigners to serve in the civil guard,
on the theory that that body was not
part of the army, though in case of
war and in times of peril it might be
called upon to do garrison duty. Amer
leans residing in Brussels opposed the
action of the Belgium government, and
1t is doubtless due to the efforts of the
United States that the Belgian govern
ment has rescinded the order.
