WHY GERMAN OFFICER
PRISONERS DRAW PAY
FROM OUR UNCLE sam
ADJUTANT GENERALS OFFICE
STATES 1T is INTERNATIONAL
LAW AND MUTUALLY BENEFi-
FICIAL - is MATTER OF BOOK
KEEPING.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The United
States is not pampering its war pris-
'oners nor making any pecuniary sac
rfices for their benefit.
1t may became necessary, if not al
ready desirable. to cut down the
lumber of meals devoured by the Ger
man prisoners from five to three a
day, as current press reports Indicate
that Herbert Hoover United States
Food Administrator, has suggested
/ l3ut i. this Is done it will result in
a saving in food, and not in money
to this government
Investigation discloses that the
whole question Of pay allowed Ger
man officers now held captive in this
country is one based on recognized
agreements, While such agreements
imay not be considered binding on the
enemy government, as has been indi-
Gated in recent acts of psrfaity, this
tgovernmdnt has not yet gone into the
scrap Of paper" business At all
ogents. Germany will eventually foot
the bill to the last item of expense
An official of the Adjutant Generals
Office in Washington went over the
entire situation recently, correcting
tbs erroneous views that have gained
currency, indicating the specific prin-
iciples Of information law involved and
pointing cut obvious advantages that
would accrue to our own officers
should the fall into the hands Of tho
Germans, through adherence to the
bookkeeping" system pracuced in
the care of these prisoners Of war
J eve are glad to have the oppor-
tunity to refute the unfortunate mis-
apprehension which has been widely
published" it was said at the Adputant
Generals office. and which charges
our government with comforting spe-
cial favor upon German officers by
giving them jas prisoners of war, the
salaries received by officers Of CORE
spending grade OF service in our own
army
at is true that we are al present
giving the German officers We have
limprisoncd the rate of gay just cesig-
mated. But az a matter Of intrinsic
fact it is the German government that
is paying these salaries to the Ger
/ man officers, just as the American
go ernment that is now paying SAL
aries to American officers in Germany.
''rhe transaction is a mere matter
e bookkeeping and not one of senti-
mental expenditure. We charge to
Germany whatever we pay tho officers;
Germany charges us what she pays
to our officers. At the close of his
tilities the debt balance will be paid
to the nation Of which It is due.
Nisarprehension Of the reasons for
our action has naturally axoited more
comment than the action Itself This
may be easily set right. II TIE first
place we are following the interna-
tional law. In the next Piaee, We
are observing an agreement signed
10th By our own and the German
government. That is, we are obey
ing the provisions of Article XVII.
Chapter 2, Of the Annex 70 the Hague
I convention. This agreement was not
signed as a whole. various reservations
having teen msda by different ma
tons; but the section just mentioned
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1918-01-04

~~~N~~~~~~~~~~N-~~0N~~~~D
was signed by Germany as well as
the United states.
1T is true, nevertheless, that we are
not recognizing Article XVII because
it is a part of the Hague convention
We are really recognizing it because
it simply enunciates international law.
this country
The war department adjusts its ac-
tion TO the understanding Of the atti-
tude taker ny the state department,
which is that this country declines to
recognize the Hague convention, be-
cause ii was never formally executed,
but that we are, nevertheless, living
up to the principles, because they are
in accord with international law.
4 have heard the hint that a ma
ton that expects to be reimbursed
by an enemy nation is running the
risk of disappointment, But Ger
!nany's payment of balance due to us
after the war, should there be an in
demnity Such payments have been
no novelty in international relations,
and we know Of no case whef, nov
ment has bean withheld. Selfinter-
go alone would move any nation 10
do nothing that would herafter in
crease the hardships to be suffered by
its own officers as prisoners.
Some directors may limit their
criticism to the fact tfrst German Of
ficers' pay. if given to our officers in
Germany, would be only fraction
of the ray that we would give to the
same number OF officers Of correspond
ing grade in our prison camps Well
although German officers are enjoying
this apparent advantage here at the
expense, in fact Of their own gov
ernment have already begun negotia-
tions to effect an agreement with Ger
many that we will pay to any one OF
her IMPRISONED officers exactly as
much as much as she will pay to one
Of our officers of the same grade. II
Is obvious that Germany will not oh
ject to such an agreement. WheT
made, it will do away with the criti-
cism that German officers here are
, receiving liberal pay while American
, officers in German get an income
quite Inadequate,
Don't imagine, though, that the pay
master scatters money among the Ger.
man prisoners. The money goes tt
the prison commandant, and each I'M
prisoned officer gets credit for his
share, Out Of this credit must be
paid the cost OF his clothing, his food
his tobacco and ali things customariIy
conceded prisoner. No officer or pri-
vate can have in his possession more
/ than IS IN cash
bSiO4c We ucCIdi Gu HdE tue GeI-
man military officers informed hle
being then on a different basis, re-
ceived their pay through the German
embassy, and after the embassy
closed, but before the declaration of
war, through the Swiss legation, rep
resenting Germany. Interned ofiesrs
belonging to the German mercantile
vessels receive no pay from us.
I'm order that our account with
Germany shall ba kept straight, We
Fay nothing to her officers here with
ont the authority of the Swiss legation
which still looks after the German
interests In Ike manner, the coun-
try charged with the protection OF
/ American interests in Germany will
