TO GET BERGDOLL
Secretary Of War Also Says
Release Of Neuf and Iim-
mer Is Sought.

WASHINGTON, March -l.--''We are go
ing 10 get Bergdoli II ii Is possible TO
get him." Secretary Weeks declared to-
day In discussing the case OF the Phil
adelphia draft evader now in Germany
II don't believe we will recognize any
statute of limitation in his case II one
should exist
Secretary Weeks would not say what
steps would be taken to get Bergdoll
out OF Germany. He refused to discuss
the possibility or his extradition by
Great Britain for viola ton or British
passport laws. but did say that he as
sunned that IL the state OF war between
tie United States and Germany were
declared at an end extradtion of the
draft evadcr would be possible.
Secretary Weeks announced formally
that Brieader-Gen. Allen had made
overtures to the German Government,
looking to the pardoning OF Carl Neur
and Franz Zimmcr Americans sentences
to prison terms at Eber bach, Germany.
for attempting 10 arrest BergdoIi on
German soil. The secretary said Gen.
Allen was optimistic that the two men
soon would be released
The German Government, ii was said
had been anxious to meet Gen. Aliens
wishes that the men be released before
their trial, but 1t did not feel Justified
in attempting TO interfere with the f,nc-
ions OF the courts at Baden. Gen. Allen
has reported to the War Department
that Neuf and thinner are well cared
for and comfortable in the prison where
they are held.
IT was said that the State Depa rtnent
had made no request Of the British Gov
ernment that il assist in bringing Berg
doll to justice. Bergdoll escaped into
Germany by obtaining a passport In
Canada, and ali investigation by the
British authorities Is said to have dis
closed that the passport was issued upon
the guarantee OF two apparently reputa-
BILE persons. whom, it afterward devel-
oped. were Americans. These men are
now understood to be in the United
States
Under the British law falsiflcstiou or
q passport is a felony. punishable b. inn
prisonment, and in diplomatic circles the
opinion was advanced that the British
Government could demand that the Ger
man Government surrender Bergdoll for
trial. but doubt was expressed whether
he could be returned to the United
States BY the British authorities
