LOYAL ALIENS KEPT
FROM ARMY ABROAD
Regard for French Feelings
Causes Transfer of Trusted
to InsuIar Service.

The War Department has adopted a
policy for the treatment of cases OF
officers and men of the regular service
who are of enemy nationality. but OF
whose loyalty there is no question.
Such men are not suitable for serv-
ice in France. They will, therefore,
be sent to duty in the insular posses
sions, releasing men in the regiments
there who can be sent to France.
\ recent case of this kind was that
of Capt. Franz ]. Feinler. chaplain of a
regular regiment and who went with his
regiment to France He is of German
birth and speaks with a marked Ger
man accent. although he has been in
the Army since 1909.
No doubt has been cast upon his
loyalty: but it has been decided by
Gen. Pershing that the feelings of the
French authorities must be consld-
cred, and no man of enemy nationality
be included in his forces. even though
he is personally satisfied to have them.
Chaplain Feinler was therefore sent
back and has been assigned to duty at
Fort Shafter, Hawaiian ISLANDS.
There are many non-commissione
officers and privates in the Regular
Army who are tried and trusted SOL
diers, but who are of German or Aus
trian birth and who have failed to take
out naturalization papers. When the
units to which they belong are ordered
to France. such men are detached and
transferred to regiments in the insular
possessions, where they replace Amer
lean citizens who can be sent to France
The War Department feels that this is
no reflection on the transferred men
II has no doubt of their readiness "a
serve the United States wholeheartedly
wherever they may be sent

Eleventh Precinct Leads.
o the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star;
In last Saturdays issue of The Star
was published an article relative to
the sale of war savings stamps by the
local police department In this ar
ticle it was stated the largest amount
purchased by any group of policemen
was :1.21S.S6 bought by men of pre-
cinct No. 10.
If these figures be correct then the
eleventh, the baby" precinct of this
city. which lies east of the Potomac
and south of the Anacostia rivers, is
entitled to this distinction. as the mem =
bers of this command purchased a to-
tai of s1,23S.60 worth of stamps, or
about $40 in excess of the tenth pre-
cinct.
In justice to the men of this pre-
cinct, some of whom made personal
sacrifices in order to perform this pa
triotic duty, I am sure The Evening
Star. always willing to correct an err
ror. will give us the credit due. through

TO Be CO-0RD|NATED
Conferences Held to Eliminate
Duplicating Efforts in Ferret
ing Out Enemy Agents.
BUREAU FRICTION AVOIDED

Representatives of the various gov
eminent bureaus of Investigate ton and
secret service Were called into con-
ference today at the Department of
Justice to discuss means of co-ordinat-
ing their work and eliminating dupli-
cation in the ferreting out of enemy
agents.
These meetings have been held weekly
for nearly two months, it was disclosed
today, although heretofore care has
been taken to maintain secrecy.
officials finally consented to publication
of the facts, after it became evident
that propaganda is being conducted
throughout the country for some sort
of consolidation of the bureaus. Tele-
grams and resolutions advocating a
merging of the investigation work of
the government have been received re-
Gently from many chambers of COM
merce and other civic and commercial
organizations. Since many of these con-
tanned the same phrases. officials con-
cluded that the propa Ganda was or
ganized by societies devoted TO national
defense and security.

Penwomen's League Urges Greater

Resolutions requesting that women of
America be allowed wider participation
in the battle for humanity; that they be

production and a broader opportunity in
administrative affairs of the nation at
war were adopted at meeting of the
League OF American Penwonen at 1923

The preamble to the resolution set forth
that because American women have not
taken their just part in industry and 50

women of the country as a whole are be

the principal purposes of the depart

has been frowned upon by most cab

Army Officer Assigned.

The most marked community of in
terest is said to have developed be-
tween the bureau of investigation of
the Department of Justice and the
Army intelligence service. These two
have coilaborated continually in the
running down of disloyal persons and
German agents, and recently an Army
officer has been assigned to the bureau
of investigation, TO keep the War De-
partment's investigators in intimate
touch with discoveries of civilian
agency.
The same sort of cooperation, al
though to a lesser degree. is said to
oe maintained with the Navy and
State Department bureaus of INTEL
ligence. and with the customs bureau
and secret service of The Treasury.
The Army intelligence bureau. with
headquarters in the War College, has
received daily reports from the De-
parment of Justice bureau of investi-
CATION and other government agencies
on the persons or subjects under in
vesti cation, and has transmitted parts
of these reports to other bureaus par

Make Up of Conferences.

Represented at these conferences are
the Department of Justices bureau of
investigation. the largest of the gov
ernments secret service agencies. the
Intelligence bureaus of the Army, Navy
and State departments. respectively,
and the Treasurys customs bureau and
secret service The meetings were
called first in January by John Lord
OBrien, special assistant of Attorney
General Gregory, in charge of war
work, to supplement a system which
had existed for some time for exchang-
ing information through the Army in
telligence bureaus clearing house.
At these conferences represe natives
of the different bureaus discuss par
ticuIar phases of espionage cases in
which they are interested and obtain
suggestions or side lights on the situa-
ton from heads of the other bureaus
which may have conducted incidental
inquiry into the cases. These discus
sions, the participants say, have dem
onstrated the need for close co-ordina-
ton o. the bureaus. but have en-
phasized that each has its own partic-
ular field and that the overlapping of
activity is comparatively slight
