position of 1,410 prisoners of war
4,003 Austrians and Germans held
by the War Department at alien en-

erty custodian, will be determined

Fort Mcpherson, Ga. OF the 4,0O3
alien enemies, 1926 are at Fort
Oglethorpe, Ca, and GIT at Fort
Douglas, aliens were sent to Fort
Oglethorpe.
One of the questions that will
arise at the conclusion of peace is
whether aliens interned will be per-
mitted to apply for citizenship, be
uepOrteu, or merely permitted to re-
main in the United States, but de-
MED citizenship rights.
A number of Austrians and Ger
mans have APPLIED for and obtained
first papers since the declaration OF
war. They had taken no part in
the war, and had been proved wor-
thy Of the rights of citizenship.
A large amount of the proceeds
from sales of enemy property have
been invested in liberty bonds. Of
ficially of the alien property custo-
dams office said Congress must de-
eide in what manner settlement will
be made with the original alien en-
emy owners.

CAMPAIGN FOR 3O,OOO,OOO

AS the result of the signing of the
armistice, the United States Gov
ernment has been enabled to sell to
the American committee for Relief
in the Near East, for nominal
sum, fifteen hospitals, Of one hun
dred beds each, including complete
equipment and two hundred motor
trucks. Buildings for hospitals al
ready have been completed in Tur-
key, Armenia and Syria. The equip
ment purchased from the Govern
metn will be immediate moved from
France, including & large amount OF
medical supplies. The motor trucks
will be used in returning refugees
to their homes and in distributing
food throughout the districts in
which millions of people are faced
with starvation.
The above announcement comes
as a distinct ally to the American
Committee for Relief in the Near
East and augments the Importance
of the campaign for $30,O0O,OO0
which will be conducted under the
direction of this committee January
1918, 1919. In this great effort in
the interest of saving human lives
the committee has received full
government approval and co-opera-
tion. All funds received will be
transmitted through the Depart
ment of State and the shipping
board and all consular agents Of
the United States government will
give every possible aid to the Amer
ican committee in this work of re-
lief, and work not only of relief,
but of repatriation and reconstruc-
tion, as we'll. OF the entire amount
contributed to this cause every dol
lar will be transmitted to the Near
East. Not one cent will be spent
for collection and distribution as all
executive expense of the American
Committee is met privately.
America entered the great war
that the rights of small nations may
never again be trampled. The no
BILE little nations of the Near East
have kept the faith and borne the
burden of massacre which thous-
ands of miles have kept from COM
ing to America, and they look to
America as the defender Of liberty
and as the big brather to the little
nations. And they look with the
assurance that America will not
fail them.
