background was the supreme author

eX officia of the board. The board
held weekly meetings, at which were
discussed such subjects as the hiring
of American writers the PROSECUTING

Washington, Jan. 97.--Official in

department concerning reports in
Paris newspapers that American SOL
dlers have been involved in a crime
wave. Secretary Baker said today that
the situation pictured in the papers
seemed incredible" and that official
reports from France made no mention

The American eXpeditionarv force

cen troops began to appear in that
city On leave or otherwise, a provost
guard of military police to aid the
French police in handling incidents in
which American troops were involved.
The same practice is followed wher-
ever the are many soldiers in any com
munity in the United States or else
where.
1t was said at the department that
disturbances of a minor character
were to be expected. where many men
freed for the moment from close mill
tary restraint We're involved, but since
the figures given by the French pa
pers indicated a most serious situa-
ton, a detailed report probably would
be asked of General Pershing, both as
to the extent to which the men of his
command have been proven to be in
volved and the steps taken to check
the indicated tendency to east aside
military discipline
OFFICERS said that if the situation
was in fact as grave as the Paris pa
pers indicated, undoubtedly thei
American officials in Paris were fullyI
