EXPLORER WILL HEAD REPATRIATION BOARD OF NATIONS LEAGUE
200, ,OO0 German and Austrian Pris- oners Still in Russia Must Be Re- moved Before Winter to
 Save Lives
By Associated Press

Washington, May 5.-Dr. Fridtiof Nan sen, the Norwegian explorer, probably will head the organization to be set up by the League of Nations for the purpose of repartriating 100000 German. Austrian and other war prisoners, still held in Rus sia. Reports to be submitted to the League Council at Rome this month say that unless these men are removed from the prison camps in Siberia before next winter, few are likely to survive. They have been in captivity five years.
 pr. Nansen was mentioned during dis cussions at Paris last year of steps to- ward sending food relief to the captives. Word has reached Washington that he al- ready has been asked if he would be will ling to serve as the agent of the league in attempting the repatriation.
 The question of aiding the war prison- CTS in Russia was referred to the league lby the Supreme Economic Council last February on the heory that under ar ticle 25 of the league covenant, mem bers already pledged themselves to take interest in the mitigation of suffering throughout the world.' Some Jugo-Slav and Czecho-Slovak troops are among the nrisoners and the 100000 estimate is based only on these held in prison camps near Lake Baikal, those who have become amalgamate with the native population being stricken from the list.
