Del’]’nder the able management of Miss Elsie A. Stommel, principal clerk of the Cemeterial Division, and Mrs. Genevieve Ruth of the Overseas Branch, investi- gations of records of war mothers and widows are being made as rapidly as possible. As there are approximately 30,000 bodies in the cemeteries of Eu- rope, including six in France, one in England and one in Belgium, an enor- |* mous correspondence will be necessary before a report can be made to Congress with definite information regarding ex- penses and other details for the pil- grimage, Terms of Bill Outlined. The bill, which has been passed by the Seventieth Congress, provides that every widow who has not remarried since her husband’s death and every mother of a deccased member of mili- tary or naval forces buried in Europe will be permitted to make a visit to the grave of her son or husband at the expense of the United States. It mow jis expected that three annual pilgrim- ages will be made, beginning with the year 1930, in order to accommodate all Telatives who wish to make the visit. An invitation will be sent by the United States to each person entitled to the pi as soon as authori- ties have granted approval. Fourteen thousand records now are ready for investigation. Some of the mothers or widows who will receive an invitation to visit the cemeteries of Europe are women who probably never have been away from their own community. Invitations' will be sent to all parts of the United States and to persons of many races and nationalities, as in many cases men who died while with dhe American Army in Europe were sons of allens Tesiding in the United States. “Mother” Term Interpreted. The term “mother” is given very liberal interpretation by the congres: sional bill. It states the term ‘mother” means “mother, stepmother, mother through adoption or any woman who stood in loco parentis to the deceased member of the military or naval forces for the year prior to the commence- ment of his service in such forces.” ‘The pilgrimage is to be made on first- class steamers with first-class accom- modations from the beginning to the end of the journey. All expenses from the time the Pilgrim leaves home to the time she returns will be borne by the United States. Two weeks will be allowed from the time of disembark- ation in Europe 4o the time of re-em- barkation for the United States. A visit of one day will be allowed for New York City. Appropriations for the pilgrimage have not as yet been made, but are ex- pected as £oon as a full report has been made to Cungress, not later than De- cember of this year. ““KING OF SOUTHWEST” HELD IN RUM CASE Three Arrestzd in Two Raids; One Pint of Evidence Is Sole Find in One Place.
