SOLDIER DEAD MAY
Be BROUGHT HOME
CONGRESSMAN SMITH HAS THE
MATTER UP WITH WAR
DEPARTMENT

The desire of many relatives of
soldier dead to have the remains
brought back to the United States
for burial, has been agitating war
department and other government
officials for some time. Congress-
man Addison t. Smith, of Idaho, has
taken the matter up with the war de-
partment and in reply to letter Mr..
Smith wrote to the department, the
following letter, which will be of in
terest to Idaho parents of soldiers
whose lives were lost in Europe, was
received. Mr.. Smith has kindly sent
this paper copy of the letter, which
| is herewith republished:
Honorable Addison T. Smith,
House of Representatives
My Dear Mr.. Smith, have the
honor to acknowledge the receipt of
your letter of October II, 1919, re-
questing information relative to the
removal to this country of the re-
mains of the American soldiers killed
in France and to inform you that the
work of disinterring, identifying and
collecting into cemeteries the dead
from so many scattered places of
burial on the battlefelds preparatory
to return to United States has reach
ed an advanced stage, but the War
Department cannot proceed further
in the matter, until the outcome is
known of certain negotiations now in
progress between the State Depart
ment and the French Government,
which have been undertaken with the
view of having the French Govern
ment remove or modify it's restric-
tions, which in effect, prohibit the
transportation in France of military
dead for period of three years.
It is the policy of the War Depart
ment to return to the United States
the bodies of army dead buried in
Italy, Belgium, Germany, Great
Britain, Luxembourg and North Rus
sia, in all cases in which their return
has been requested by the nearest of
kin. Steps to this effect are to be
at once without waiting
on the action of the French Govern
ment with respect to the dead in
France.
Trusting this gives the information
desired, I am
Very respectfully,
(Signed) P. c. HARRIS,
The Adjutant General.

Mr.. Hostettler is just little dis

''We gave Lincoln everything it

good appropriation for state

are taking steps to make a refer
endum on some of the most impor-

turn around and try to undo what
we wanted.

Pagan Files Appeal.

from the Judgment of the Fillmore
county district court has been filed
in the state supreme court by at
torneys of Joseph w. Fagan, who
received considerable publicity dur
ing the Geneva girls industrial
school trouble "a year ago. Pagan
was found guilty of an attempt to
bring about criminal operation
upon the person of Grace Moore,
an employe of the school, and sem
fenced to one year in jail. He was
allowed bail in the sum Of $1,000
pending an appeal to the supreme
court.
The appeal alleges that the lower
court erred in allowing Deputy

warrant against Pagan was sworn
out by Lena E. Ward, superinten-
dent of the woman's home at Mil
ford, where the Moore girl was
taken and where she gave birth to
