UNCLE SAM HUNTS HIS
MAYNARD NEPHEWS
MANY YOUTHS RUN AWAY TO
JOIN EUROPEAN ARMIES, BUT
SOON TIRE AND WANT TO COME
HOME.

Washington, Nov. 7.-Of the many
unexpected duties the United States
has found thrust upon it by the world
war one of the strangest is that of
rescuing adventurous boys who enlist
in the European armies.
There have been more than thou
sand such cases since the war began,
and even now letters praying for the
release of young soldiers OF fortune
pour into the state department at the
rate of so a day. 1t has been neces-
sary to assign an official to give spe-
cial attention to the subject.
The story almost always is the
same. The youngster between sixteen
and twenty, suddenly disappears and
is next heard from when he writes
home from Canada or England that
he has had enough of war and wants
to come home.
Then follows an almost tornadolike
correspondence in which officials, par
ents, congressman and persons who
think they can hurry the process of
diplomacy by their influence become
sympathetic, fearful, importunate or
mandatory. The red tape of govern
mental business, however, unWinds
slowly and finally the consul general
in London or Ottawa, or somewhere
else or perhaps the American embas-
sy makes representations to the for
cign government and the adventurer
S released and sent home.
Until recently the British govern
ment had been promptly releasing all
Americans under 81 on the request
of the United States government on
the ground that it is illegal for such
q person to enlist in a foreign army
Without parents consent. Recently
the British government has shown a
disposition to reduce the age limit to
eighteen, when minors become of age

This is the eighth explosion in the works of the company in three months and no one now believes that they were accidental. The authorities hardly hesitate to express the opinion that pro-German conspirators are responsible and the arrests of the German sailors working in the fact ories have strengthened the belief of the general public to conviction.

It will be noticed that the Gateway asked Mr. Lane to say whether or not there any opposition but the Secre tary of the interior ignores the question: He probably regards as sufficient to say that he hopes for the emer ency appropriation immediately this would show that even if some opposition shown very often hap pens for political reasons it would be pOwereSS to prevent the granting of the money. AS the House committee will report out next Tuesday MT. Lane undoubtedly knows that it will report favoraby he would never have ex pressed the hope of the granting of the appropriation quickly.
