For the first time in over one hundred years the American public has large numbers of foreign prisoners of war in its midst. While German naval prisoners were held in the United States during the last World War they numbered only a few thousand men, as compared with the total today of over three hundred thousand Germans with additional numbers still pouring into our ports. The task of housing and feeding these prisoners, of providing for their other needs as well as of guarding them and putting them to work at productive labor, has been the responsibility of the War Department. With few precedents and practically no experience to fall back upon, it has done and is doing an enormous job with results that, as a whole, are a credit to the good name of the United States
