Dr.. Muck,s Citizenship.

The citizenship of DR.. Carl Muck has
been a subject Of discussion in diplomatic
corps here for some time. where it is gen
orally understood that while the holder of
Swiss papers, he is a Prussian in fact
As explained by one member of the
diplomatic corps, Mr.. Muck's father when
the son was six or eight years old, went
to the canton Of Zug and obtained, by
purchase, papers emitting him to Swiss
eitfzenship. He did that. it is said, to OBJ
tain the protection Of the Swiss govern
ment in his business, which was largely
in Switzerland, and also to keep his son
from being taken into the Prussian army
when he arrived at the age of conscrip-
ton.
The Swiss naturalization laws are ad-
ministered, in many cases, by the can
tons, and in some of these the regula-
tons are very lenient, making 1t possible
for any one to buy naturalization papers
without being compelled to exercise all
the preliminary duties of citizens

PAYS TRIBUTE TO VALOR
OF BELGIAN SOLDIERS
Mai. John Van Schaick of Red
Cross, a Washingtonian,
Visits Front.
of the Associated Press.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
BELGIAN FRONT. February Is
Maj. John Van Schaick, acting director
of the department of Belgium Of the
American Red Cross. paid tribute to
the fighting spirit of the Belgian SOL
diers on a recent visit to this front,
asserts the official eyewitness with
the Belgian army. He said:
when I was here as your guest be-
fore / said something about the in
telligence and courage Of your lead
ers. / want to add just word now
about the splendid spirit of your men.
The most of US do not stop to think
that the Belgian soldiers by the for
tunes of war have a much harder po-
sition to endure than the soldiers of
any other army. Even the Americans
can go back home. and even the Aus
tralians and New zealanders can get
letters from home. but great num-
Der of Belgian soldiers can neither
visit their homes nor get any in
formation about their families.
Remember Fate of Families.
sIn addition they have to realize all
the time that their wives and ch1ldren
are in the power OF the enemy they
are lighting. Repeatedly on this trip
men spoke to me about this fact as
being one Of their greatest hardships-
If we stop for a moment, put ourselves
in their places and think of our own
families we get a slight idea OF one
of the heavy burdens which they have
been bearing.
aThe American Red Cross is arrang-
ing to put up some double tents at the
front, heat and light them. put in some
games and books and other comforts,
and make it possible for the men to
have a little recreation center when
their hard work is over. l was sur
prised to hear men singing in the worst
camp that I visited. They were most
of them men of good families trained in
city conditions. They certainly showed
their blood by singing as they did the
most mental work in the service CT
