WILL AID STRANDED AMERICANS

Anticipating that thousands Of Ameri-
cans in Europe Will find themselves
seriously embarrassed by the war wave
sweeping over Europe, the State Depart
ment yesterday took steps to handle
promptly all cases which arise Of Ameri-
cans in distress
For the relief of anxiety OF friends and
relatives abroad, all consuls and diplo-
matte officers in Europe will be instructed
at once to report promptly the name Of
every American who finds 1t necessary
TO apply to the American officials for aid
Of any kind. These reports will be given
out here, and the department will assume
that all Americans who do not apply at
consulstes for assistance of one sort or
another are in a position to care for
themselves. Thus far practically no ap-
peals for help have been received.
Estimates made by steamship COM
panies place the number of Americans
in Europe. mostly tourists, at 10000.
The consuls in Europe have no govern
ment funds at their disposal with which
they can give relief to distressed Ameri-
cans. It is believed. however. that if
the situation of nany Americans be-
comes really serious. appropriation will
be made for bringing home stranded
Americans
