The usages of :lvlllzed nations resrapilinc c.intivos inform In a general way to theso prln- apies and rules. All members of an enemy nation are ?nemle8, though all are not treated dike. The general rule obtains that "no use of force agalnt an enemy Is lawful unless it Is necessary to aiXom ?lish the purposes of war," and the practical application of It, refined :hrough couturies, has led to exempt ing many classes from capture. The custom of nations exempts from capture the persons of the sovereign iud hts family, ohVers of the civil gov ?rnment woien and children, farmers, mechanics, artisans, laborers. science and letters, and generally all those engaged In ordinary civil pur suits, unless actually taken in arms. Count Bismarck even maintained in 1870 that the crews of merchant ves sels could not be made prisoners. The Geneva or Red Cross convention ?xempted hospital and ambulance at tendants and chaplains attached to hos pitals and ambulances from capture as prisoners. By early custom soldiers. whn tnir. en in war, were killed. They may be killed to-day In case of absolute neces sity for example, If prisoners Impede the movements of an army necessary to Its preservation. Later, captives were made slaves. After that the custom of holding them for ransom came Into vogue. During the seventeenth century ex changes of prisoners became frequent, but exchanging prisoners is not obliga tory if the captors prefer to hold for ransom or to leave their own com rades In the enemy's hands. Prisoners are frequently allowed to return to their own country on promise aot to engage again in hostilities against the captors. Perhaps the world will some day ac suowledge the nobility of the spy, but :t is doubtful if contending forces will ?ver cease to hang or shoot him when tie Is taken and convicted.
