The question of what to do with
these refugees is looming up as a
grave problem that Is likely to tax
the resources of Germany as moth

seems destined to aggravate their
plight, in addition to which there
are the distressing food conditions

The government will intern all
the Poles who cross into Germany
in accordance with it's neutrality
rules. Accommodation for these
unwelcome guests may be found
but the Germans do not promise to
feed them. having all they can do
to feed their own under-nourished

London, August Ii am going to
write about the boys of different
nations and the camp. We arrived
at the camp Wednesday and being
on leave we stayed around and
helped cart bags around for otn-
GERS. As we were carrying things
around Dutch Scouts came into
camp. They seemed to be very jol-
ly because they were singing at the
top of their lungs and having
jolly time.
The English have a fine horn band
and believe me for a small band
they have il over all boys bands.
They play what we call music.
There is also a bugle and druri
English provinces. Our band is one
of the best in camp but we win
have to go some to beat the Eng
lish band.
All the scouts seem very happy
and content with everything. We
scouts have a harder time under
standing the English than the Irish
and Scotch or even the Dutch, what
little English they know. The Eng
lish territorials seem to speak more
on the order of Americans, though
all in this camp speak English, but
l went up to a fellow and said
something and some way he maze
me to understand that he did not
understand. I don't know where he
is from. He seemed bewildered be-
cause 1 thought he spoke Engmsr,
he just smiled.
We can always tell, an English
Boy Scout because they all play
cricket and soccer. the Scotch be-
cause of their kilties. South Afri-
cans because of their small feather
in their hats, Irish and Welsh by
reading the cloth on their shouI-
ders which has their home city
printed there. Dutch because of
their dark green shirts and cordu-
roy trousers. They don't wear
wooden shoes.
You can also make out the Amer
lean because they are always play
ing tricks on one another. Most of
the other scouts, not Americans
that is good many of them. sa-
lutte other scouts and we Americans
say how do you do?"
