less" Germans

Another move 10 keep the waterfront
free of enemy aliens will be made this
morning. when placards warning all
Germans 10 keep off will be posted on
docks and piers in this city and Long
Island points. Before the week ends
similar notices will be posted along
the Hudson River and probably along
the Connecticut shore.
Tho notice to be displayed reads as
follows:
NOTICE TO ENEMY ALIENSl
ALL ENEMY ALIENS MUST KEEP
OFF ALL DOCKS. WHARVES AND
PIERS IN THE SOUTHERN DIS
TRICT or NEW YORK.
THEY MUST NOT BE EMPLOYED
IN ANY MARITIME OCCUPATION
ON THE WHARVES ADJACENT TO
THE WATERS OF THE SOUTHERN
DISTRICT OF NEW YORK.
ANY ENEMY ALIEN FOUND on
ANY DOCK, PIER OR WHARF, OR
EMPLOYED IN ANY MARITIME
OCCUPATION WILL BIZ IMME-
DIATELY ARRESTED.
1T is THE DUTY OF ALL GOOD
CITIZENS TO REPORT ANY VIO-
LATION OF THE FOREGOING
RULES.
THOMAS d. MCCARTHY,
United States Marshal for the
Southern District of New York.
The posting Of these notices, it was
hinted yesterday, is the first real move
toward making the zones so long nom
inally barred to subjects of the Kaiser
actual closed districts.
Ferries Not Closed
No rule has yet issued closing the
big skyscraper office buildings along
the harbor front 20 alien enemies, and
no move is contemplated, for the pres
ent at least, which will close to them
the ferries. This, it is realized, Is n
weakness, inasmuch as one using the
Staten Island boats has every oppor-
tunity to see much that is going on,
while a reasonably close observer,
armed with pair OF opera glasses,
could get a splendid line on the daily
movement of ships of one class or an
other in and out Of the harbor.
How soon this state of affairs will
be attacked, no one in authority would
say Yesterday Those who have been
closest in touch with the enemy alien
situation expressed the belief that
however much Washington officials
may now be in favor of allowing these
gaps in the line of national defence
to remain open, eventually they would

Washington Bars
Secret Service
From Spy Hunt

[From Il Special Correspondent Of The InOuneI
Washington, July 1O.-Ever since the
United States entered the war, Inc
Tribune has learned, the Secret Ser
vice. the most efficient man-hunting or
qanization in the United States, mas
been barred from the pursuit Of Ger
man spies or from any watch over the
activities of the Kaiser's agents III the
United States.
The spv hunt-what there has Deen
of it-has been conducted by the new
or. less experienced and almost utterly
unco0rdinated detective and inquiry
bureaus connected with the depart
ments Of State. Justice, War and the
Navy. Even now, when it is proposed
that these shall be Joined into one
really efficient body, the influences
which have been tieing the hands OF
tho Secret Service have succeeded IN
eliminating that organization from the
proposed combination. =.
All this is-or was-entirely legal, II
ANYBODY cared to enforce the law IL
had not been enforced during the pre-
var neriod. The Secret Service had
won more than one important skirmisn \
with the German spies, thougn, OF
course, the exact nature or these can ,
not be told. II is, however. permitted
10 recall that President Wilson con-
graduated the service on having inter-
cepted the notorious Zimmerman note
which offered Mexico the Southwestern
states as reward for joining Germany
oroirst tho limited states.
But a law. passed during one or the
fights between Colonel Roosevelt and
Congress. when he was accused or
using Secret Service men to find out
whether Congressmen we're dealing
with corrupt business interests, limit
cd the activities of the service 70 chas-
ing counterfeiters and protecting the
nerson of the President. So, when
about three months ago some official
demanded that the law be enforced 70
the letter. Chief Flynn and his men
were taken off the job they were doing
so well.
An immediate move was mad TO have
the law amended, however. and TINS
was done. The President was empow-
cred 20 order the Secret Srvlce to un-
dertake work outside its usual actlvi-
ties. But no use has, to date, been
made Of that power.
The duty Of the Secret Service was
most definitely pointed out by Attor-
ucy General Gregory himself IN a cir
cuiar letter sent to United States At
torneys i'm the last week Of June. The
letters avowed purpose was TO define
the duties of various Federal depart
ments. The duty Of the Secret Ser
vice. he pointed out, was concerned
with the detection and arrest of coun-
tnrfeiters.

Pleads for the Facts

az ask the members to do all in their
power to counteract the very insidious
enemy propaganda which seeks to start
causes Of friction between the Allies
and to bring about a peace which would
really mean n German victory.
"The best way to fight enemy propa-
ganda is to spread the knowledge Of
the facts of the war. It is easy to
twist motives. It is easy 10 impute
sinister intentions. 1t is fatally easy
TO dig up long buried animosities.
"Spread the facts. Some of the facts
Of what Britain has done ( have skele-
tonized already. There are plenty Of
other facts which | have not the time
to detail. Give publicity to the facts
in every way possible to you"
Lord Northcliffe, who founded and is
president Of the Overseas Club, said
that Of its 10000 members scattered
throughout the world 10000 had gone
to the front. The club, which has sew
enty-eight branches in the United
States, has expended Sl,200000 for
Smokes" for soldiers, has raised $780,
600 to buy 100 fighting aircraft, has
established hospital beds in Egypt and
has provided comforts for the Belgian
soldiers. Its headquarters in London
would be opened to American soldiers,

fore Lord Roberts did this Lord North
