When the mistake ■was discovered It took some months to locate him in this country but he has been brought to account and is now repaying the money in monthly instalments. Considerable Loss Experienced Considerable loss has been experi- | enced in the immediate exchange of i American and German money. Un til the time of the war a German mark was valued at 24 cents of Amer ican money. To facilitate exchange, the relief agents gave it the value of a quarter of a dollar, so that the CASTOR IA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years FRIDAY-EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 10, 1915. .us music student in Berlin re vived but 4,000 marks instead of 4,150 which ordinarily wolud have been the equivalent for the SI,OOO. In later transactions, the mark mate rially decreased in value and is still depreciating so that now it is only worth about 19 cents. The handling of funds for private individuals, which continued from Au gust of last year until May 6, 1915, added heavily to the work of the Treasury, yet these funds represented a_ much smaller sum than that which Uncle Sam took out of his own pocket to lend to those brought to un- I expected need. Each of these direct loans was made ; ; upon a promissory note signed by the | borrower but with no other guaran tee than his own personal honor. Many of these notes have been met promptly. Others are being paid in instalments suited to the means of the borrower. A few persons have shown a dis position to evade their obligation ~but John Burke, United States Treasurer, takes great pleasure In the fact that honesty seems an Inborn trait in most American citizens. Small Security Asked Of the $2,500,000 provided by Con gress it !s not yet known how much was distributed. It has been placed in the hands of consular agents all over Europe. Whenever a loan is made to an American he is required to sign a promissory note and give his American address. No other security is asked. It is not a strict way of doing business but Uncle Sam wanted t his folks to come home. v The consular officers forward the ' notes to Washington. So tar about $600,000 in these notes has reached the capital. On those notes $270,000 has been paid. Much more than half } of them remain unpaid a year after { the emergency arose. For a long 3 time the Treasury was receiving 1 money on them at the rate of SSOO a J day. Now it is coming in only at 1 the rate of SIOO a day, having mate- 1 rlally slowed up. ( Three difficulties are most In the 1 way of the collection of this money. < Many of its recipients cannot be]' ] found. Many others state that, at the > time of receiving the money, it was 1 not their understanding that it was > to be returned. Many are In financial 1 straits and unable to pay. The payment of these loans in some instances involves considerable hard ship. Many of the stranded tourists ' were teachers and other small salaried people who had saved money for years for the purpose of making the 1 European trip which had been plan- | ned as economically as possible. In ] most instances round trip tickets had | been purchased, but it was rarely pos sible to use them in getting back | home. So the expenses caused by the I war often amounted to almost if not i quite as much as the sum provided l i for the entire trip. Yet the Indebted- I I ness is being paid off slowly but j i surely, sometimes in instalments as ■ small as a single dollar. None of the ! notes will be cancelled except upon' their payment and the government 1 will steadily proceed in its attempts 1 to collect them. 1 All Brought to Account < Some individuals have shown a 1 disposition to evade payment of the j loans, but they are likely to be dealt , HA SKIN Letter —Gal Two—Sept 9 .. with summarily. Several persons who , gave fictitious addresses in Europe t have been located through special in- : vestigatlons. As each note was re ceived from Europe a communication was sent to its maker giving notifica tion of the fact that it was in posses sion of the United States Treasury. In many Instances prompt replies were received proposing a method of pay ment. Several borrowers remitted their loans to the Treasury before their notes had been received from Europe. When the address given upon the note was found to be incorrect, the co-operation of the Post Office De partment has been asked and hun dreds have been straightened out. I Mistakes in many cases were unlnten ! tlonal. A few persons who evidently | had intended to evade payment, upon ] being located, were induced to ar j range terms of settlement. Borrowers Unheard From Despite Treasurer Burke's supreme ! optimism, there is still a large per ! centage of borrowers who have made no effort toward repaying the loans from the government. The Attorney f General has been asked to make pre liminary examination preparatory to legal proceedings. No suit yet has been brought and the United States Government will not distress any de linquent who acknowledges his obli gation but those who are able to pay will be compelled to do so. The clerical work in connection with these notes is tremendous. Some times Beveral notes were given by the same individual. For instance, a note might be given In Berlin for funds suf ficient to meet certain obligations and take the tourist to Paris. A second might be given there and perhaps a third in London to pay for the pass age to America. There necessarily is considerable delay in securing these notes from the office 3 abroad as in many instances the consuls are with out sufficient clerical assistance and the account of an individual cannot be closed until all his notes are pre sented. The details of this great emergency loan business, involving the handling of over $6,000,000 In comparatively small sums, include many Incidents of both humor and pathos. Few of these will ever be made public. Per sons not entitled to receive aid fre quently presented themselves with fic titious claims. The utmost vigilance was required to prevent fraud. At the same time the generous spirit which provided the funds aided its distribution so that prompt relief was rendered to urgent need even in cases of possible doubt. Even though the government should loss a considerable part of its advances, the loss would < be considered insignificant in propor- ! tion to the value of the service ren- ] dered, and the avoidance of possible ' complications that might have arisen i with large numbers of stranded Amer- < leans in the war zone. , SPECIAL SERVICES IX PROGRESS Sfecial to The Telegraph Lisburn.
