Ambulance Pensions

In the early days of the World War, while President Wilson patiently exchanged notes with German diplomats, hundreds of Americans, many of them university men, shipped to France. There they entered ambulance field services with the French Army, served so valiantly that large numbers came back with the Croix de Guerre. Last week, Major W. C. Koenig, of the military staff of the U. S. Embassy at Paris, announced that the U. S. will soon take care of its own -- the men who served with the French Army are to be made eligible for Government pensions.
