MANY SOLDIERS
MARRIED TO
CERMANGlRLS
misunderstanding Of Ruling
NO Charges Are Filed
Against Any of Men.

Coblenz, Thursday, July 24.-(By
the. Associated Press.)-Reports Of
marriages between American soldiers
and German girls have been received
at headquarters from various parts Of
the occupied area during the past few
days but as yet no charges have been
filed against any Of the men as it is
believed most Of the marriages were
due to misunderstanding regarding
the anti-fraternization regulations.
A week before the treaty was signed
several of the chaplains, through a
misunderstanding, informed the SOL
diers that marriages were permissible
as soon as the Germans accepted the
peace terms. officers say that a num-
this belief was corrected by q special
order from headquarters calling the
attention Of officers and men to the
fact that until the United States rati-
fed the treaty Germany and America
technically were at war and the regu-
lation prohibiting determination was
still in force.
: At headquarters it is said that even
after the United States ratifies the
treaty marriages with German girls
will be prohibited by an army order.
In the last four or five months Of
ficers who are familiar with details
of at least 20 soldiers married to
German girls with the consent'of the
army authorities who desired to miti-
gate circumstances. In each instance
the soldier was willing to marry the
girl and after an investigation the Of
ficers advised civil marriage and
recommended that there be no court
martial.

mend the repeal OF the ton per cent
soft drink war tax. Though no record
vote was taken, Democratic members
urged that all repeals be deferred un-
til means for replacing the lost rev.
enue was found.

ity act by Representative Young of

Canadian parliament never passed
reciprocal legislation. "It is hoped"

tion by Canada of the proposed
reciprocal agreement, that the bill
may be considered without partisan
ship and speedily passed"
Repeal of the reciprociay measure
will not affect the removal of tariff
duties on wood pulp, wheat flour, po-
tatoes and potato products. A bill yet
to be acted on by the committee pro-
poses repeal of the provisions. except
that applying to wood pulp.
