There are sc-1e who are looking
for the boys to he home from France
before Christmas. On the face of
things it can be seen that this is an
impossibility. 1t may be necessary
to police Germany for two yects or
more and that will require a strong
army. However our regular army
would doubtless be sufficient. Then
the plan of alternating the soldiers,
sending some from the camps over
and bringing others back would find
iayor both with The soldiers and with
the people. Sc VIC can see no sea-
son why some of the soldiers should
not begin to arrive at an early date.
But it will be a long time before ali
the boys are safe again this side of

80, 154 Were Killed In Battle
Or Died OF Their
Wounds.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Total &C u
alties in the American Expedition
airy forces up to the signing of the ar
mistice were divided as follows:
Killed and died of wounds, SO, 154;
died of disease, ASH; died from
other causes, 2,204; wounded, 49,
625; prisoners, 2,163; missing 1,160.
The American forces in France,
General March said, had taken "A, 900
German prisoners in round numbers
and 1,40O guns. He added that the
casualties among the American forces
in Northern Russia were not severe,
contrary to reports, and that en-
couraging accounts of the situation
there had been received.
Discussing the enormous number OF
wounded recorded in the total OF
casualties announced by General
March, officials said this included
many thousands of men slightly hurt
who did not go to the hospitals and
whose names never had been report
ed Casualties reported to the de-
partment up to yesterday numbered
only little over $4,000 and most
estimates of the probable total when
the armistice was signed have not
been over 100000.
Long lists are coming i'm daily now
however, and the total, exclusive OF
the very slightly wounded, may &c
far above the previous estimates.
