changes made necessary by new mili- tary activities the basic plan has re- mained the same, namely, that soldiers and sailors should be allowed to com- municate with their folks, without cost to themselves.
 ''The proposition has found a ready supporter in the press of the country The Boston Post one of the most tn- fuential Democratic papers in New England, has come out strongly in fa- Vor of it; and the New York Herald, as Republican as the Post is Demo- cratic. has ardently advocated the bill after I introduced it. The New York World and the New York Sun praise it, as do practically all the aggressive dailics in smaller communities. Through the press the plans suggested in the bill have found their way into the training camps already busy with war preparations, and the response of the soldiers in favor of this recOgni- ton of their merit has been at once spontaneous and compelling.
 With all these facts in support of the bill, gentlemen of the House, with it's passage practically demanded of us by that devotion and respect we owe to our troops. with the example of all our allies pointing the way, it seems to me only just and equitable that we take steps immediately to enact the resolution into law

 |" 'Furtherfore, M. Jusserand adds, a decree of August g. 1914, prescribes that ordinary letters coming from or destined for soldiers or sailors duly mobilized are forwarded free by the post Money orders meant for the same or sent by them, the value of which is not above 50 francs, are drawn up free of cost
 Furthermore, Secretary of State Lansing, under date of August 12, 1917, announced that the minister of finance authorizes the entry without payment of duties of parcels sent from foreign countries by pri- vate persons to soldiers of the Amer ican Expeditionary Corps No other examination will be required than an identification of the parcel and the transmission to the destination as marked. The same facilities are eX- tended to shipments made to wounded soldiers under medical attendance in hospitals; they include tobacco, cigars. cigarettes, playing cards and beverages. Those invoices are eX- empt from customs duties statistic dues, and, if any. internal-revenue taxes. It need not be said that the de- cision applies to shipments made by the Y. M. c. A.
 As to Great Britain, I am advised under date of August 4, 1917, by Sir Cecil Arthur Spring Rice, the British ambassador. that in his country the mails are free to men serving in the British forces in the case of letters addressed to the United Kingdom, but letters from the front to foreign coun- tries must be stamped"
 'In Russia, I am told by MT. Eu gene Omeltchenko, of the Russian ex- traordinary mission-Letters sent to the active army and received from the active army in the regular manner that is, not registered-may be sent free of postage. The region of the
 active army is understood to be belt about hundred miles from the bat
 tie line. The mail of soldiers in this
 region may be sent free. The mail from war ships is also allowed to gC free of all postage duties.
 'Jtaly has not been lacking in gen. erosity Count V. Macchi di Cellere the Italian ambassador, advises me that in the beginning all correspond ence-letters and postcards-of the officers and men were forwarded free but later, owing to the burden on the Government, it was necessary tC charge for correspondence betweer the men themselves. This measure he adds, which relieved the mai somewhat in the war zones, was talk en because it was the purpose of the regulations to provide for free post age between soldiers and their famil ies rather than between soldiers an( their acquaintances. Later, when the Italian lines were so advanced tha mail ha l to be taken from the termin als of railroads and carried by motor cars, cars, pack animals. or even bS aeroplanes, free mail had to be fur. ther reduced, in order to meet the new circumstances.
