Reports of marriages tween American, soldiers and German-girlhave been received at headquarters from various parts of the occupied aiea during the past few days, but as yet no 'charges have been filed against any df the men. It is believed most of the marriages were due to misunderstandings regarding thfe antifraternization regulations. A week before the treaty was signed several of the chaplains, through "a misunderstanding. informed the soldiers that marriages were permissible as soon as the Germans accepted the., peacri terms. Officers say that a nutn-- l ber of marriages took place before this belief was corrected by a special c rdei from headquarters calling the attention of officers and men to the fact that until the United States ratified the treaty Germany and America technically were at war, and the regulation prohibiting fraternization was still in force.
