He must be humanely treated, so it is prescribed, and when he is ques- tioned by his captors he must give his true name and the rank he holds in the army which has been defeated and of which he was once a, part. Contrary to general-belief, he is not stripped of ev-erythlng and thrown into a, dungeon and fed on a crust‘ of bread and a mug of stale wait/er. ‘ His captors do not deprive him of his personal possessions. except weapons. horses and military pa.â€" pers. Furthermore, they must give work has beef ext-mordmury International Law. ‘. The international laws of warfare, embodied in The Hague conven- tions. the Geneva convention and the Declaration of London, contain provisions that provide expressly what manner of treatment shall“ be accorded prisoners of hostile na- trionss who are taken in battle. If these pronISbODS of international Law are lived up to, the lot, of the prisoner of war is not so hard as many people have been bed to beâ€" lieve. ’Dherre have been interâ€" spersed in the war news from biased sources insinuations that the sol- diewrs of this or that nation have ruthlessly violacbed the provisions of the inter-national laws governing warfare and the Kaiser has been alc~ cused of treating The Hague con~ vention asso much waste paper. The news from abroad has not re vealed any unfairness to the many thousands oi soldiers who are pri~ sonens of war, so it must. be asâ€" sumed hhad; with respect to them, at least, the laws are being observed. That such is the case may be as sumed also from the feet that the nation which captures its enemy’s soldiers and makes prisoners of them is [held entirely responsible for whatever happens and Shoulders wt once a. responsibility that is comâ€" m-en‘sura-te with one number of pri- soners _who are taken and detained. that is done with these prisoners, how they are handled and treated and whether high officials ar Qumâ€" inshed more sewea‘ely than meg: priâ€" mates are quest-ions frveque‘nmlygaskâ€" ed by readems of the war newssland seldom answered, for the pmcedrure followed in such matters is but little known. One Recently the German War De- partment s‘elnt‘ broadcast a statement that 30,000 Russians had been taken prisoners by the Gemnan soldiers aft-er heavy battles in East Prus- sia, particularly around Ontelsburg, Hoh-e-nsbe‘in and Tannemburg. The statement mentioned the fact that among the prisoners were many Rg'svs-ivan officers o-fAhig‘h rank. Confinement Is Only Provided as Indispensable Means of Safety. The prisoner of war has been a eon‘srpicuous‘figure in the news that has come from the seething caJd'mn of Europe within ‘9, Lastfew weeks. If the reports {that assed the censor be true, many thousands of prison-; ens have been taken from the con- ‘bendinyg armies by their adversaries. For them the average Canadian. reading the war news in the comfort of his security from the great conâ€" flict, has felt perhaps a, grain of sornow and wondered vaguely the horrors raha/o befelll them after ca-pâ€" ture.

The government that holds pri- soners of war is chargeable with their mainmenanc‘e and must pro vide them with food, clothing and shelter as good as that provided for ii’os own troops. The officers of the icaptors are required to keep records of alil the prisoners under their charge, and if relief societies, which have been extensively formed by the women of Europe and many American women as well], wish to minister to their needs and com- forts. the oflicers in command must afford them every possible facility.

The Prisoner of War may be interned in a town or a tort or even a. camp, according to the convenience of his captors, but the enemy may not confine him, exâ€" cept, the law says, as an indispen- sable measure of safety, and then only as long as the circumstances make it necessary. Of course, the law gives the commanding officer considerable leeway, in such mat.- ters, for he is left to determine when the indispensable occasion arises. At other times when the prisoner is at liberty, he is subject ‘to all the rules and regulations of the army of the government that captured him, and if he refuses to obey the rules or acts in an insu~ bordinate manner toward the ofli- cers in comm-and he may be punish~ ed and disciplined according to his offense.

All these moneys must be ulâ€" timately refund-ed by their own governments to their captors after the war is over, peace is declared, and the intricate problems of inâ€" demnicies come up for solution. A prisoner of war may even be paroled by his captors, and this is done sometimes when he is disabled or there are circumstances that prompt his enemies to let him go to these who are near and dear to him. When parole is granted to a prisoner he makes a solemn pledge and promise that, he will live up to the terms under which he is redeans- ed, and even his own nation may not ask him to perform a. service that is i‘noeueistexnrt with that pledge.
