Frustrates Enlistments.

Department of Justice officials said
today that they are confident the ar
rest OF Montenegrin officials in New
York, Portland Ore, and Bisbee, Ariz.,
has frustrated a plan to return thou
sands of Montenegrins to their country
Red Cross officials attributed the ar
rests to ignorance of the neutrality
laws of the United States
State Department officials had no of
fetal reports, and maintained a strict
silence regarding the case.
Although Department of Justice of
ficials are not certain how many Mon
tenegrlns now live in the United States,
they say the operations of the men al
ready arrested indicate they hoped to
enlist several thousand men The De-
partment also is keeping close watch
on reported attempts to enlist men in
the United States for the Italian army,
but so far definite evidence has
come to light.
1t was explained today that the
Montenegrins were not arrested be
cause of their efforts to get "reserv-
ists' out of the United States, as such
an attempt would be understood if
undertaken by representatives of such
countries as Germany or France. Prac-
tically all male citizens beyond Ger
tain age are enrolled on the army
lists of those nations, 1t was pointed
out, and no enlistment is necessary for
German or Frenchman residing in
this country who wishes to join the
colors.
In the case of Montenegro, however,
enlistment is necessary, and Inducing
trality laws. Great Britain has no
system of reserves and the same rule
would apply to- any enlistments of
Englishmen made here.

System Of Farm Credits.

The plan under consideration contem-
plates a system Of farm credits operat-
ing through the Department Of Labor
which would enable workers in con-
gested cities to take up agricultural
land on government reclamation prof.
ects. or public lands. on easy payment
loans. Commissioner General Camt-
netti of the immigration bureau sug-
gested a government back-to-the-farm
scheme some time ago. and the inter-
departmental committee, now has de-
veloped the idea to a point whore work
has been begun on framing of initial
drafts of necessary legislation.
In addition to requiring an auxiliary
rural credit system under the control
Of the Department Of Labor. the
scheme would necessitate amendments
to the reclamation laws and the land
laws, liberalizing the financial ar
rangements that may be made with the
government by settlers on federal land.

Remembers Leader.

American Red Cross officials remem-
ber that Capt. Anton V. Seferovich. ar
rested in New York, and B. Martino-
vich, one of those arrested at Bisbee,
have at various times communicated
with Red Cross headquarters to get
relief supplies for their country.
Seferovich, Miss Mabel Boardman
said today. went to the Red Cross head
quarters in New York recently and
asked for medical supplies, which were
sent. The Red Cross appropriated
$4,000 for supplies for Montenegro, and
also instructed the sanitary commits
sion operating in Serbia to include
Montenegro in its district.
Miss Boardman said the Montenegrins
arrested might be members of the
American Red Cross here, but mem
bership is open to any one who con-
tributes to relief work. Martinovich
was formerly Montenegrin minister to
Constantinople, and came to Red Cross
headquarters here with a letter from
the Russian ambassador at Washing
ton.
No Official Information.
The State Department had no official
information in connection with the ar
rests. 1t has received many complaints
in similar cases since the war began,
but investigation of nearly all devel-
oped that the men who went abroad left
American ports as individuals, unoffi-
cered and not enlisted, and took actual
enlistment after reaching the country
in whose service they elected to go.
From Boston and the Pacific coast
complaints of German recruiting did
not develop any actual violation of
