period OF negotiations between French

government desired to meet the wishes
OF the American nation but entertained
serious doubts as to the advisabllity OF
removing the american dead from the

labor and transportation difficulties in
volying the passing of the bodies over
the railways and highways at time
when the French population was IN the
first stage Of its recovery from the

meut feared that the granting OF such
permission to America would bring on
clamorous agitation from other ma
tions for similar permission aud that
this would hamper the rehabilitation
Of French industrial conditions.
American officers, however, have Wig
orously urged that the number OF
Americans in the zone of operations
was relatively small: that the trad
tional policy Of the United States was
TO return its dead from foreign soil and
that the American government could do
no less than heed the pleas OF those
