President Wilson Will Issue
Proclamation Enforc-
ing Such Order.
ONLY WAY TO
LOCATE GERMANS
Those Not Registered Will
Probably Be Rounded
Up and Prosecuted.
By ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington, Nov. 13.-President
Wilson is expected to issue a procla-
nation soon requiring every alien
enemy within the United States to
register, as a step toward ridding
the country Of spies and sabotage.
The government has virtually decid-
ed that this procedure is the only way
open for sitting from the million
Germans in the United States the few
who are believed to be causing fires
in munition plants and warehouses
and prompting propaganda injurious
to American prosecution Of the war
Under the proposed restriction
plan, Germans would be given a
specified time, probably several
weeks, in which to report their names,
occupations, and family or business
connections to postmasters or some
other government agency. Those
not registered then would be rounded
up and prosecuted, and officials be-
lieve that the failure Of some to en-
roll would give valuable clues to the
identity Of suspicious persons WHOSE
conduct and interests might be care
fully scrutinized.
Some officials recommend that ev-
cry alien enemy 50 registered be re-
quired to report periodically IN order
that watch might be maintained over
their movements. Under present con
ditions, Germans may move from one
locality to another in the United
States without hindrance, providing
they do not enter the barred zones
about munition plants and govern.
ment establishments.
Only Germans could be compelled
to register by presidential proclama-
tion, since Austrians, Turks and Bull
garians are not classed as enemies
under the espionage law. Congress
might extend the restrictions to those
nationalities. however.
