FRENCH PRIESTS WELL
TREATED BY GERMANS
Many Little Courtesies Are Extend
ed to Prisoners Of War by
the Teutons

Recent advices from abroad through
reliable sources tell of the following
incident as indicative of the consid-
Grafton shown by the Germans to their
French prisoners of war:
"A French prisoner of war at the
Lechfeld camp who had received the
diaconate (deacon's orders) before his
call to arms was recently ordained to
the priesthood by the German Bishop
Macmillan. Seven priest prisoners and
a great concourse of the laity attend
ed the ceremony
The same article quotes also from a
letter just received from an American
in Munich: whatever may be said
against Germany. she is certainly
treating the French priests with great
Kindness and consideration. l have had
occasion to write to the fortress at In
goldstadt about an old French priest

war. The reply came that l might
write to him and send him anything l
wanted. The commander said, in con-
clusion: Able Vanat is very well and
bearing his great trial with noble for
t1tude and dignity"
The priest prisoners. it is stated, are
not only afforded the opportunity of
d three-day retreat to their fellow
prisoners. Each priest is said to re-
celve "a marks month for his little
wants besides his food. which is whole

MR.. JOHNSON RETRACTs.
Corrects Error He Made in State.
ment Concerning Star Editorial

Retraction of a statement made Feb
ruary l by Representative Johnson of
Kentucky concerning an editorial in
The Star was made by Representative
johnson today on the floor of the
House. The original statement was to
the effect that The Star had said edi-
torially that Auditor Dent of the Su-
preme Court of the District of Column
bia was not practictng law. This was
stated by Representative Johnson in
the House. Today Mr.. Johnson said:
AT the time l made that statement
l entertained not the slightest doubt in
my mind that l had seen in The Star
the statement that Auditor Dent was
not engaged in the practice of law.
While by statement that he was ac-
tually engaged in the practice of law
was correct. it develops that a con-
trary statement was not made by The
Star.
Having had my attention invited to
that particular part of what l said. l
have sent to the Congressional Library
and had the files Of The Star thorough
ly gone through, with the result that
there cannot be found in The Star the
statement that Auditor Dent was not
engaged in the practice of law.
Il am not now able to recall where
| saw that statement, but l am en-
tirely satisfied that 1t was not made
in The Star and in justice to the editor
of The Star l now wish to make cor
rection of what l said upon the former
occasion.
