This applies not L to Swiss who have not declared (ir intention to become citizens of c United States (first papers,) but w to those who have actually de- ued their intention to become citi- tsoi the United States. The Legation has endeavored d will continue its efforts, to have (acknowledgment of the principle txeraption by the United States ke.the form of a general order to [military authorities. Up to the unit time, the Government of the died States has not issued such serai instructions, but has merely tmpted those Swiss whose cases k been presented by the Legation, is, therefore, possible for the Lega- 1 to intervene only in behalf of K Swiss _ who have addressed ise »selves cither directly to it, or ■ough a consulate. Although a number of these cases ary considerable, and is increas- [daily, there is reason to believe, sever, that a number of Swiss hens, due to lack of knowledge of 1 legal situation, have obeyed the ltrs of the aulhohrities of the Unit- States without protest, and with- I claiming exemption because they kved these orders to be unalter- bi all cases where a Swiss citizen ibeen called to service in the Unit- States Army and through ignor- «of the existing condition has not fa claim for exemption, it is the j of the Legation to take inl ine steps for his release. The Le- wn has no reason to intervene in tali of those persons who, being j aware of their rights and duties Swiss, have their own free will re- nded to the call to the colors , or 0propose to do so. Nevertheless, 1 in these cases, the Legation be lts it to be its duty to draw the at- tion of such persons to the fact I they are still liable either to be tdupon to return to Switzerland military service or to pay military Has the law may stipulate. 1 order that no valuable time may lost pcndi.ig the issuance by the 'ed States Government of the gen instructions mentioned above, Legation must seek some means rhich it can befriend such fellow trymen, as yet unknown to it, may have been conscripted st their will. The present circu- as, therefore, been addressed by iwiss Legation to the Consulates, rious Swiss Societies, and to in- ual persons, with the request its contents be given the widest city possible in Swiss circles. It W be brought to the attention ralarly of those Swiss citizens are already in training camps, or are expecting a call in the near t, and who have not yet appcal- this Legation.

(a) When a man is called for phy sical examination he must immediat ely claim exetnpton on the ground of his Swiss nationality, using a special blank which is supplied by the compe tent Local Board. His Swiss national ity must be proven by due and suffi cient evidence. If the claim is not al lowed he shall immediately apply to the nearest Consulate, sending his proof of nationality and giving the data listed under 1 (a). The Consulate will forward these facts to the Lega tion. Immediately upon receipt of the or der to report for service (red card) the Legation must be advised again, if possible by telegraph, given the date of report, the name of the camp and the military unit to which assign ed. In case these latter facts are not yet known, they are to be reported as soon as possible. (b) Swiss citizens who are already in training camps and whose call to the colors has not been brought to the attention of the Legation, shall immediately address the letter and transmit the documents and facts Us ed under I (a). It is advisable in any event, to in form the Legation as soon as possible wherever dfficulties arise out of any restrictions imposed upon Swiss citi zens in connection with military ser vice in the United States, and duly to report developments. The Legation expects from all Swiss who are in camps and who have claimed exemption a weekly re port of the progress of their cases, and, finally, the notice of their dis charge from further service, Hans Sulzer, Minister of Switzerland.
