President Issues Proclamation.

Washington, Nov. 1a.-President
Wilson today by proclamation put up
the bars in front of every alien enemy
within the confines of the United
States. Attorney General Gregory I'M
mediately began to work out strict
methods by which the department OF
justice will carry out the presidential
order.
New drastic prohibitions are speci-
fed. Alien enemies must not ap-
proach within 100 yards OF any com
mercial water front, railroad termi-
nails. warehouses or elevators: must
not be found on navigable waters OF
this country; must not fly in any aerial
craft: must keep out OF the District
of Columbia and the Panama canal
zone. This latter requirement forces
them to register under the regula-
tons now being compiled by Attor-
ney-General Gregory.
The attorney general has consulted
the war department about the use OF
troops for guarding the restricted
zones. 1t is believed this measure will
be resorted to in many cases.
Local police Will be required 10
round up all alien enemies and com
pei them to register and to enforce
the regular reporting OF all those now
registered.
