By Newton C Parke
With the American Army in France,
Dec. 21. (I. N. S.) The seductive wiles
of beautiful women spies Is made the
' subject of a special warning In a cir
cular card issued to every officer and
-soldier In France -by an adjutant gen
eral at-the command of General Per
shing., Specific Instructions are given
regarding what not to write and say In
' public.
- Under the heading; In large type,
"Don't Talk Too Much !" appears ,the
-following :
' "Never forget we are at war with an
f enemy that is always listening. Always
look with suspicion on strangers. Never
tell anything of a confidential nature to
' women, as women are the most suc
cessful of all spies."
Uniform Sot Always' Safeguard
, This word of caution was issued be
- cause It has been the experience of every
j nation at war that women and girls
find It easier to obtain access to mlll-
tary secrets because the average soldier,
while regarding Questioners with suspi
cion, falls to comprehend the extent to
"which the enemy Is using attractive
; girls.
i The warning continues : i '
"Be suspicious of anyone who : asks
' questions of a military nature or appears
, unduly Interested In military matters,
i even though he may appear to be an
American officer. Don't offer unsolic
ited Information. Tou have no right to
tell anyone where any unit is nor what
- military Information comes Into .your
possession unless It Is your official duty
" to do so. Any strange man, woman or
child, or even a man tn the uniform of
: the American or allied armies may be a
. epy-
i "Don't tell him anything you wouldn't
t be willing for the enemy to hear. For
similar reasons never enter Into corre-
spondence with strangers. It Is one of
the many schemes used by enemy agents
f to gather information.
Be Confident of Snece
i" "On the street or in public places re-
member walls have ears.
i : "Don't express your opinion on mlli
t tary matters nor the general situation.
: Be loyal to your government and your
I superiors. Trust them ,to conduct the
war while you attend to your own par
ticular part in It.
t "Avoid giving any Impression of pes
..; sim ism in eitner your conversation or
attitude. In all ways be confident of
; the success of our armies and .our
f ause. i
I The cards were issued not only for the
I fpurpose of laying "jdown regulations but
1 also to explain to the boys exactly -why
It Is necessary to restrict their writings
ana conversation. The foreword says
"Remember, the enemy has agents al
; ways alert to gather Information. Details
t apparently unimportant may be com
s blned with other details gathered by the
enemy and become information of great
importance to him. Don't forget that
'news travels so quickly under modern
r .conditions that bits of Information you
write home may be In the hands of the
enemy a short time afterwards."
I ; Then follows a list of "Don'ts" In
f writing letters and postcards barring
. references to localities, movement and
- condition of troops, losses and effects of
feostile fire.
it Printed Letters Frowned On
"Don't allow friends at home to pub
i llsh your letters in newspapers. Don't
put too much faith in the discretion of
the people- you write to. They may be
very patriotic, yet quite unable to rec
ognize an enemy agent or what informa
5 tlon may be of value to the enemy.
Above all don't attempt to 'formulate any
" system ot Cipher or code or shorthand
or any other means of concealing the
; true meaning of your letters. It Is the
I surest road td -courtmartlal and severe
punishment.'
Then follows a section informing the
soldiers- what they may write and to
whom. Instructing .that no communica
tion shall be had whatsoever with enemy
prisoners of war.
' Another paragraph instructs the men
to carry -no notebooks, maps or paper
containing military information as they
may be stolen by enemy pickpockets or
captured. The last paragraph la headed ;
"It you, are captured," and directs. the
men as follows: '
, "Don'r remember any more than you
can help. Try particularly to. forget or
ganizations and the place wherein they
are stationed. Every bit of military in-
