everything possible to repatriate Ger
man prisoners of war and informed CT

Having regard to the present sit "a
ton in respect of economic existence in
Germany, it must be admitted that G1r-
many is unable to do with her own fe
sources everything required in orders to
secure that end. This refers especially
to food and clothing; therefore, the Ger
man delegation thinks it desirable that
the deliberations of the commission
should likewise include an examination
of the question of the manner in which
the allied and associated governments
might assist Germany in the solution OF
these problems.
THE question arises. for instance. OF
supplying against repayment COM
plete sets of clothing. underclothing
and civilian clothing and footwear
for the prisoners before their dis
patch.

(Signed) "BROCFDORFF-RA
M. Cemenceau's Reply.
Text of the reply approved by the
council of the principal allied and as
ISOLATED powers to the letter from
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau. dated
May 10, 1919:
Refuse Release of Criminals.
Paris, May %. 1919.
Sir: The representatives of the al
lleQ ana associated powers nave given
consideration to the repatriation or
the German prisoners of war. In re-
ply, they wish to state that they can
not agree that prisoners of war and
civilian prisoners who have been
guilty of crimes or penal offenses.
should be released. These crimes and
penal offenses have been committed
on allied soil and have been dealt
with by the legally constituted au-
thorities without reference to the
fact that the wrongdoer was a Ger
man, rather than an allied citizen.
For instance, certain German
prisoner broke at night into the
house of a farmer. on whose estate
he was set to work, and murdered
the farmer and his wife in cold blood
with billhook. For this double MUIR
der the said prisoner was sentenced
to death on June IL. 1918. by a regu-
larly constituted court-marital I'm
der the Bern convention. however. the
execution of the sentence is sus-
pended until peace is signed. Justice
would certainly not be satisfied If. as
consequence of the treaty, this
murderer was reprieved.
For these reasons the allied and
associated powers cannot agree to
alter the provisions Of the draft treaty
in respect of prisoners of war who
have been guilty of crimes or penal
offenses.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-05-23
As to Alterations Asked,

I'm regard to the second question.
the German peace delegation makes
no specific suggestions as to the allie
Walton which they would propose for
the prisoners Of war and interned
civilians between the date of the
signing of peace and their repatria-
ton. The allied and associated pow
ers are not aware of what alienation
it is possible to make. seeing that
they have scrupulously endeavored to
observe both the laws of war and the
dictates of humanity in the treatment
which they have given to prisoners
of war, and that. as provided in the
last section of article 21S, IL is es-
sential that prisoners of war and in
termed civilians should remain sub
ject to discipline and control pending
their repatriation, in the interests of
all concerned.
THE German peace delegation may
rest assured that ii is the intention of
the allied and associated govern
ments to treat their prisoners Of war
during the period between the sign
ing of peace and their repatriation
with full consideration of their feel
ings and needs.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-05-23
Concerning Property and Graves.

The restitution of personal prop
erty to prisoners Of war constitutes a
legal right which the allied and as
ISOLATED powers have every intention
Of respecting. AS regards informa-
ton about the missing, the allied and
associated powers have always en-
deavored to supply the German gov
eminent with all information in their
possession on this subject, and they
will certainly continue to do so after
peace Is signed.
Concerning the care es Ge.<~-s,
they would point out that articles k,k
and 226 would appear to assure to the
German people that the graves of
their fellow citizens shall be both
respected and properly maintained
and that SO far as is practicable under
clause 225 the bodies Of their SOL
diers and sailors may be transferred
to their own country.
I'm regard to the German request
for complete reciprocity. the repre-
sentatives of the allied and associated
powers have to state that they felt
it necessary to include article 222, in
view of the treatment which their
own nationals have received while in
termed in Germany during the war.
AS there was no parallel between the
treatment which was accorded to
prisoners of war by the German gov
eminent, on the one side. and the
allied and associated powers on the
other. no claim for reciprocity in this
respect can arise.

HYDROMETER SAVES
YOUR BATTERY

Do not abuse your Battery and en-
danger pleasant motor trips by failing
to use your hydrometer. Each time
you manipulate this specific gravity
measurer you lessen its initial cost
and prolong the usefulness of your
battery
"To properly test the specific gray
ity of a battery CELL" says +. j. Cur
It's, local distributor of USL Batteries
at ISL West street, remove the vent,
insert the rubber tube at the bottom
of the syringe hydrometer thru the
vent well down into the electrolyte.
Squeeze the rubber bulb firmly, then
remove pressure from the bulb Elec-
trolyte will rise into the glass barrel.
If you desire an extremely accurate
reading, lift the instrument 10 con-
venient height and hold it vertically so
you can see the hydrometer floating
free within the glass barrel of the
syringe. Ordinarily it will suffice TO
read the hydrometer with the syringe
in the we'll and then you can easily see
the figures reached by the surafce Of
the electrolyte.
after reading is taken, be certain
TO restore the electrolyte to the cell
from which it was removed to
another-so that the between-cells
balance of acid is preserved. Insert
the rubber tube into the vent well,
squeeze the bulb so as to expel all the
liquid from the syringe and do not re-
lease the pressure from the bulb until
you have withdrawn the tube from the
we'll. This will preclude stealing acid
unknowningly from one cell and do
mating it to another. Then proceed
with the same operation on the next
cell and so on until all the cells have
been separately tested. Be sure that
no spilled acid remains on the top OF
the battery. Remember-freqent n.y.
drometion gives battery contentment
and hydrometers don't wear out"
