Government Expected to Start Investigation to
Determine Fate of Many Who Deserted
Husbands and Drifted to Cities.

WASHINGTON. May 2 Copy
right. - Advices from Portland,
Me-, that drive" has been under
taken there to relieve distress among
the German wives Of American SOL
diers recently returned from their
watch on the Rhine have focused
attention here on one of the outstand-
ing problems of the American Army.
An investigation probably will be
ordered in the near future to learn
just what has become of the foreign
wives of soldiers since their return
to this country; to determine into
what walks of life the women have
been led; how many have wilfully de-
serted their husbands; how many
have been driven to desperation in an
attempt to live on a private soldiers
meagre pay, and what is the con-
dition among those, with children,
who have attempted to keep their new
"homes" together.
The Government will not spare Itself
in such an investigation, for such an
inquiry, whether conducted by the
War Department or by Congress. is
certain to lead to the question as to
where Government responsibility for
the soldiers wives ended. The army
permitted the soldiers to marry abroad
especially those stationed in Ger
many. The army provided transporta-
ton to America for the wives. Should
the army also have provided adequate
quarters for these wives after landing
them on American soil?
In most instances, 1t is said, this
was done. This was particularly true
Of the returning soldiers who landed
in New York. Evidently no provision
was made, however, for the wives who
arrived by transport direct at Port
land, Me. 1t is estimated in the re-
ports reaching here that between
sixty-five and seventy German wives
are living on charity in Portland, with
other contingents expected from the
Army of Occupation in a short time.
No estimate has been made of the
number of German wives who have
been brought, or are being brought,
back to this country by the Amer-
can "doughboys." 1t is said that
more than 1000 French wives were
| brought back by the men of the ex-
peditionary forces. Aside from fur
nishing transportation for this num-
Der of women, and a few children,

have belonged to the regular estab-
hshment of the army. men with a
year or more to serve with the col
ors after their return from the
Rhine. Furthermore, most of the
German wives are bringing children
with them.
Saddest of all has been the disillu-
sionment of the German wives as to
their prospects in life since they
reached America. In Germany, at the
present rate of exchange, the $40 d
month of a doughboy was fortune
At the time when German marks
reached 800 to the dollar $50 a month
amounted to the normal equivalent of
moro than $4,000 a month, or about
SIS, 900 a year The money did not
actually amount to that much. for the
purchasing power of the mark rapidly
declined. At its worst. however, the
doughboy's salary in marks amounted
to far more than a fraulein OF the
Rhineland ever dreamed OF posses5-
ing.
Wives have found that they could
work as cooks in New York and earn
from $50 to $50 a month, or twice as
much as their husbands. This has
not made for domestic happiness.
Wives with children have not been
able to go out so freely, and conse-
quently have suffered the greater
physical privation.
Gen. Robert Lee Bullard, in COM
mand at Governors Island, has done
everything possible to provide for the
German wives landing in New YORK
Harbor. Approximately 200 apart
ments were prepared for them at Fort
Slocum, but the wives were not con
tent with life there. They came to
see America and wanted to see 1t first,
so they rapidly drifted into New York
City.
At Camp Dix, N. j., there are now
6S5 German and French wives living
with their soldier husbands in Govern
ment barracks. But Camp Dix Is TO
be abandoned. The soldiers are to be
scattered to various posts. The army
cannot pay for the transportation OF
any wife married TO a man below the
grade of First Sergeant. The private
soldiers have no money for this trans
portation. either.
During the last several months Gen.
Allen has forbidden soldiers below the
rank of Sergeant to marry in Ger
many. Prior to the issuance of this
order marriage was unrestricted. Pri-
vate soldiers stationed in the United
States are not permitted to marry.
One solution of the whole problem
may lie in the Immediate discharge
of all married men who desire it,

the assailant of his mother drew a
crowd that the courtroom could not
accommodate.

had been given the freedom of their
home and frequently had been SUP
piled by them with clothing and
money. 49,
Mrs. Veith will testify that Doyle
knew that her son gave her money at
stated periods. She admitted him un-
suspectingly when he called in the alb
sence of her son on April s. He
asked her for $25 which her son had
given her the night before. When
she refused to give. 1t to him he
knocked her down, kicked her into un-
consciousness and stole. the money
from her person. She will ex-

that when his mother told him OF
Doyle's assault he went crazy. Hang.

his mothers home was a revolver that
had belonged to his grandfather. He
grabbed the weapon, rushed from the
house with it, obtained a supply oi

to-day before Referee Gleason in the
resumed hearings of the Stillman di-
vorce case, stated that an application
had been made to the tribe for the ad-
mission to 1t OF Mrs. Anne Urquharft
stillman and Fred Beauvais. the In-y
dian guide who. Mr.. Stillman claims.
Is the father of Baby Guy Stillman.
Delille testified that he did not know .
who made the application, but 1t was
useless In Mrs. Stillman's behalf. as
she was of white blood. Beauvais's
father had belonged. he said, to the
Bear Clan of the tribe. but that Fred,
the son, had lost standing in the clan
because his mother had white blood.
The Bear Clan. he went on, was
subdivided into the White Bears and
the Black Bears, and Mr.. Stillman's
attorneys said they would endeavor
to show the relationship between one
OF these subdivisions and the telegram
Mrs. Stillman Is alleged to have sent
to Beauvais. announcing the arrival
of the little black bear" This tale
gram, 1t Is claimed, was sent at the,
time of the birth Of Baby Guy
Stillman.
Delille was asked whether q tribal,
marriage ceremony uniting Mrs. STILL
man and BeauvaIs had been per-
formed and the witness said none
such had taken place.
Considerable time was taken up by
Mr.. Stillman's attorneys in seeking
to have stricken out testimony given
before the commission which went to,
Canada to examine witnesses in Mrs.
Stillman's behalf. Some of this was I,
so disposed of by mutual consent
Referee Gleason announced, however.
that he would permit to stand all,
testimony as to the bribery of wit z
nesses.
When the hearings were resumed
neither Mr.. Stillman nor Mrs. Anne
Urquhart Stillman was present and
1t was not known whether either
would appear.
The first witness called to-day was
Octave Neault, a Canadian contractor
and builder Of Grande Piles. He is the
father Of Mrs. j. A. Lafontaine, a wit
ness for Stillman, who testified as TO
the Intimacy of Mrs. Stillman and
Ferdinand Beauvais, the Indian
guide, while they occupied quarters
In her home in Grand Piles In Junr.5
1919. Neault had done repairs on the-
Stillman house at Grand Anse. Cau-
ada, in June and July. 1919. according
to his testimony.
In New York last spring two work.
men named Pages, father and sony.
testified that from scaffoldings and
ladders they had seen Beauvals aand
Mrs. Stillman in the latter's boulder
In the Grande Anse house. But when
the commission went to Montreal for
testimony in behalf of Mrs. Stillman,
witnesses swore that In June and
July, 1919, there were no scaffolds o.
ladders about the Stillman residences ,
Mr. Stillman's witnesses of to- day were
| ready to state that such appliances
were in position about the house al
