All Italians living in America, wheth.
er citizens, first paper men," or
straight aliens, will be relieved from
military duty and the military laws
of Italy upon a showing that they
have complied with American military
laws.
This arrangement, made between
the United States and Italian govern.
ments, is the result Of work started
five years ago by Representative De.
Prato, of Dickinson county, and when
short time ago he received a let
ter from Congressman W. Frank
James, enclosing copies of correspon-
dence between the Italian embassy
and the American department of state,
announcing the conclusion of a mill
tary convention between the two
countries on this subject, the Italians
in DePrato's district took day off.
The agreement means considerable
to many Italians in this country. All
who came here before serving their
time" in the Italian army, have de.
linquent" records against them and
are subject to punishment if they ever
return to Italian territory.
Now American-Italians who went in.
to the draft or volunteered are recog.
nized by the Italian government as
having evened the score of their home
country against them. Rejectment
for service because of disability is not
a bar-they complied with the Ameri,
can law by appearing for service and
their status is thus unimpaired.
