There has been much criticism of
the luxurious life that German war
prisoners IN this country were supposed
to be enjoying. Whether their treat
ment has been as indulgent as the pub
lie believed is not altogether clear, but
their lot has certainly been much pleas
anter than that of war prisoners in
other belligerent countries, and I'M
doubtedly better than most of them
deserved The government from now on
will hardly be accused of coddling
them. The war department has ordered
that every prisoner of war shall be put
to work. Nearly 1000 are already en-
gagged in building roads near Fort Ne
Pherson, Georgia. Others are erect
ing new buildings for fellow prisoners.
1t is decided to bring back the prison
ers captured by Persh,ng's army, they
too, will be given occupations making
them an asset rather than a burden to
the nation.
