Berlin, Aug. 12.-A party of young Americans, all Rhodes scholars has arrived here from Oxford Uni versity to assist in the Y. M. c. A. relief work in connection with the re- patriation of Russian prisoners of war.
 They will be assigned to various prison camps throughout Germany where 175,000 Russians are awaiting ships to take them home. About 25,000 already have been sent from Stettin to Narva but there are so few ships available it be months. before the last of them can be embarked Meantime the Russians are suffering severe privations.

 We certainly are getting along quite nicely without the trolley and if we go ahead and keep our jitney service we are simply the leaders in becoming a tro1leyless city by evolution.

 when we had no jitneys we took a lot of pleasure in kicking because of strap-hanging, poor ventilation and a few other things which we are finding , fault with the jitney about now.
 The jitney is new thing, much quicker, just as safe in the hands of a good driver and in a sh2rt time we will see big improvement in the ser vice if we are willing to give them a fair deal.

 Five years confinement in prison camps has reduced the Russians to a pitiable condition. Many are ill, some insane, and all undernourished improperly clothed and dispirited From the German government each receives a small monthly allow ance which is insufficient to provide even the necessaries of life.
 Officers at the Wuelzburg camp re- ceive monthly 135 marks, which is about $3.10. For the one meage1 daily meal they get at the camp 5 marks is deducted. Out of what is left they must try to buy clothes and other essentials. Such thing, fo, example, as dental attent1or is wholly beyond their means.
