bodies of American dead whose rcla %
tives express the wish that they be
not removed from French soil. The
preliminary steps already have been
taken to obtain the consent of the
French Government for the removal of
all the bodies that are to be brought
back to the United States but in many
instances Such course would be con e.
trary to the specific wishes of the next

It is announced that the Graves

Paris Decides U. S. Bodies Must

Exhuming Own
START BEFORE JAN. I, 1922

Paris. Nov. 25.--Thc G5 900 Ameri-
can dead in France must be left in the
graves they now occupy until the
French are ready to exhume their own
dead which it is hoped will be before
January I, 1922.
The foreign Office had promised to
consider the latest request of the
American government for the return of
its fallen soldiers, but later the fol-
lowing official announcement was made.
1T has been definitely decided that
the Allies who fell together for the same
cause should remain together in death
until circumstances permit of the re
turning of the bodies to the families for
whom they sacrificed themselves "
The proposed law specifies delay in
exhumation Of three years from the
PRONUNCIATION of the law, but it is ex
pectcd that this period will be short

commence considerably before January,
