TEDIOUS TASK OF RETURNING HEROES Bodies of American Soldiers in France All Being Returned Paris, March 1r.—The work of re- turning to the United States the bodies of American soldiers who died in France was completed today with L final shipment of 1,500 bodies from Brest for New York. This brings the total number of American bodies re- turned to 45,023, Difficult Problem. i The simple announcement of the completion of the task marks the close of one of the most trying and difficult problems ever placed before the American army. The American Graves Registration Service, the spe- cial branch of the army organized for the purpose, began work in February, 1920. Agents of that service will now go to England and assemble 97 Ameri- can bodies destined for siipment to America. These were American sol- liers who died in widely-scattered parts of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England® Five hundred other bodics of Americans whose relatives have de- cided to leave them in England, will ibe concentrated in a beautiful little permanent cemetery at Brookwood Surrey, England, the British govern- ment having given the site. This work will be completed by July all 57 An extensive scheme of beautifica- tion has been developed by a special IMine Arts Commission for the four cemeteries in France which are to be the permanent resting places of near- ly 30,000 Americans who fell in the world war. Original plans called for the expenditure of nearly $3,000,000 but in the interest of government sconomy this sum has been reduced to 1bout $1,000,000. Work will begin immediately after this appropriation is made by con- gress. Colonel H. F. Rethers, who has been in eharge of the Graves Regis- tration work, probably will direct the work. The four IVields of Honor are Sures- nes cemetery, near Paris; Bony, near t. Quentin; Belleau Wood, near hateau-Thierry, and the Argonne or Romagne cemetery, near Romagne- sous-Montfaucen. For the latter a scheme has heen worked out which will make it very much like Arlington cemetery. Fach nemetery is to have a rest house and chapel for visitors and every grave will be marked with a uniform head- stone. French Decorate One of the most touching features of the four cemeteries has been the way in which French people have made them their own. Sunday never zoes by without scores of French peo- ple visiting them and placing flowers on the graves. This manifestation of friendship and appreciation caused many relatives to leave the bodies in France. The beautifying of the Fields of Honor will take two years but a great deal of preliminary work has already been done and the cemeteries in their present state are impressive, When the Graves Roegistration Serv- ice began its work, the bodies were in more than 500 cemeteries scattered in every part of France, Alsace-lorraine and Germany. Several thousand men were employed under-the direction of American army officers. Concentration of bodies in the four Fields of Honor has been completed. The Graves Registration Service will maintain a permanent office in Parws the convenience of American visitors.
