A. E. F, BOYS DRIFT BACK TO PARIS AND SLIDE TO THE DOGS
(Guy Hlckok in the Brooklyn Eagle) Two thousand ex-A. E. F. men are adrift In Paris. Most of them are uttcriv inbless. A few have mere bread
and hutter Jobs Juet enough to keep
thorn alive.
Mnre cain their living by question
able means following the races, tout-
ins dance halls and worse places ana
a number, a horrifying number, are
living in absolute degradation in the Apache quarters of Paris, as thieves, nilrpR of feminine crooks and
in nther auite unmentionable pursuits
Officers of the Paris post of the American Legion declare nothing less
than a regiment of military police can clean this situation up. The French police appear to be powerless before the superior vigor and initiative of the former Yanks. The Paris post of the American Legion, numbering only 900. can do nothing against these 2,000. The situation grows worse from day to day. Part of War Tragedy. These men left-overs are part of the tragedy of the war; they are the lotus eating sediment of the American army. Some of them stayed when the army went home. Others went home with it, and have drifted are still drifting back. Many are deserters, new deserters from the Rhine are joining them. They cannot break the invisible ties that bind them to the beautiful city, "where it is always afternoon with not nine to do."
During the war or after the armistice most of the A. E. F. got a taste
of Paris: on some never to be for
eotten three-day leave, or while here
on special duty.
The uniform was an Introduction to
anv circle. The highest paid army In
Europe, the Yanks had everything their own way. They were cocks of the walk, kings of the world. Every khaki-colored 6uit held a hero and a
world of "Drettv ladles" bowed in
homace.
Now the uniforms are gone the affpctlons of the "pretty ladles" have
shifted.
It is one of the most Dathetlc. most
dangerous little colonies in the world,
this hungry crowd of young Americans caught like sediment In a corner of the kitchen sink, waiting, fearful, for the plug to be drawn; waiting for the moment when they will be swept Into the drain with the waste of life. Colony is Growing. The most alarming fact about this little colony of left-overs, with nothing to do and nobody to care, is that it is growing growing in size and growing more desperate. A constant drift backward, via steerage mostly, brings new faces
men who somehow haven t. been able to catch on at homp or who have found ' the ways of home too prosaic after the fictitious freedom of the war. They come, many of them unable to explain the reason of their coming dumbly, blindly as the humming bee scents its way back to the flower that once before gave perfume and honey. But the perfume and the honey have gone. The men grope fumblingly for the life they knew before that was big and easy, -where everything went and nobody cared. Some expect jobs. Others have no assets but a headful of get-rich-quick schemes with which to frisk the simple Frenchman of his francs. But the thing they came to find isn't
here. The liberty, the license, the loose- j ness is left, but the something that , during and immediately after the war j
lifted it out of its pit of foulness nas gone, never to come back. One Paris newspaper asks editorially: "What, will Paris do with them if they stay and what will they do with Paris?' Last Step in the Drama. The question answers itself too frenuently. Funds get lower and lower. There are urgent cablegrams home to
mother or father sometimes unanswered after the first time.
Then somebody's motor car disap
pears.
It never works any more, aii mo
police of France are watcmng ior stolen motor cars driven by youths who speak French with an accent.
Then prison ana tne ena 01 iuiub
eating. .
It might be worth wnne. dui ior mo fact that they never really found the lotus the second time.
