wanted.
"They did not want to return to
their country and they realize that
England, France or Italy would not
tolerate them," Mr.. johnson said.
I"The question is, shall this country
tolerate them? American soldiers in

100000 Troops
Ahead of 3Oth

WASHINGTON, Jan, 24.-Practi.
.cally the complete strength of the
p27th New York national Guard divis-
ion) about $4,000 men has been as
signed for early convoy home, a cable
to the war department today announ-
ced. The division will be sent to
Camp Upton for rehabilitation.
1t was announced Tuesday that the
9th, the 30th (0ld Hickory and the
.37th (Buckeye) divisions had been
ordered to prepare for embarkation
and it is assumed here the assembling
of the 9th for transportation vir-
tually as a unit means that the same
course will be followed in the case
of the other two divisions.
There was no official estimate
available as to when the New York
division would actually start but Of
ficially it was said probably five or
six weeks would elapse before the
first units embarked.
The records show at least 100000
other troops are on General Per-
shing's priority list to come home
ahead of the 9th, 3Oth and 37th di-
visions. Nothing has been received
as yet to indicate that the divisions
will be started homeward out of their
regular turn on the priority list.
