Gate to White House Are Locked = Department Doors Closed to
 Strangers.
PUBLIC MEN DELAYED
Wilson's Secret Escort Is Doubled and Rigid Precautions Are
 Taken.

WASHINGTON, Feb. F. - (By maiO.-This city has taken no more of wartime aspect since the sev- erance of diplomatic relations with Germany than prevailed in the Ma tIonal capital at any time during the Spanish War. This is true from the White House down through the de. partments, and into the Capitol, There is no undue or unusual mill. tary display. It is rather in the pre-. cautionary measures taken to protect public men and public buildings,
 The White House grounds were closed within a few hours after the President announced to Congress thu! passports had been handed to Am. bassador von Bernstorfr and AmOa5, sador Gerard had been recalled.
 The public has been barred not only from the White House and the White House offices, but from the White House grounds. The big gates out front remain closed and locked barring all vehicles, and even the gates at the pathways leading tc the White House remain barred aEo locked, so that pedestrians also are kept at more than a safe distance from the Presidents home and of flee,

 Public Men Are Delayed
 So rigid is the rule at the White House that public men having aD. pomtments with the President eX- porlence great difficulty in gaining access to the White House grounds, and early in the vigil Senator Sim mons, of North Carolina, chairman of tho appropriations committee, was forced to pace up and down in Q biting wind for l5 minutes while heI was being identified, and that not withstanding he called at the White House on the Presidents invitation
 At no time during the Spanish War was the great State, War and Navy Department building closed toI the public; today it is barred to all save those bearing passes, and each one of the several thousand employ. ees has to carry an Identification card and pass in order to reach his or her destination each morning and during the lunch hour. Here, again, Senators and Representatives are barred along with the general pub lie.
 Newspaper correspondents having daily business in the big building have been forced to obtain passes.
 Watchmen Are Increased
 The other government departments are less rigidly guarded thus far, al- though in practically every public building in Washington many of the entrances have been closed, and the number of watchmen on duty at the open doors has been increased. This is true of the Capitol building, as well as at the departments, and in rone of these buildings can a strang' CT boaylng a package of any kind gain admission. He must first de- posit his package with the watchman. When President Wilson appears in public these days he is followed Iby double the number of secret 9er- vice men who formerly attended him. ard unusual precautions are taken % guard h,'n against cranks This move was made by the secret service, which is entrusted with the task of protecting the President at any and all times. By reason Of these changed conditions the Presi- dent is much more confined now than before the break with Germany, and is necessarily unable to enjoy | all the liberties that were safely his in the days before the break.

THE REAL SPIRIT.

There was a real exhibition of the ego
gct-cm" spirit at the meeting of the Com
mcrcal club Monday evening. Not in long
time have SO many men of the city attended
a meeting of the club and considered the
problems that face the community.
DO something. That was the spirit of the
meeting. Instead of building air castles the
men present urged the necessity of laying
the foundation of progress here by working
for the upbulding of some permanent in
duStry connected with the agricultural in
tcrcsts already represented.
There is sound philosophy in the move
mcnt to improve conditions by helping to
make this better market for the ranchcrs
and to look first to the welfare of the ranch
ers who are here now, letting their prospcri-
~ be the magnet which will draw the addi-
tional settlers who will make possible the
growth of greater Ontario.
Tomalic possible the accomplishment of Il
few things for the Improvement of the city
by the club emphasis was made on the ne
ccSSity for more members. This is the first
essential. \ start was made at the meeting
and the sixty contributing members was in
creased 10 50. gain Uf one third in one
evening. There is NO reason why the mem
bcrship should not be- POO, and it will bc if
the plans outlined for the work to bc under
taken by the club matcrializc.
In their determination to increase the So
cia activities the board is recognizing as
the proposition that no organ
ization can long hold membership which
receives no tangible return for the dues
spent. Merely loyalty to the city and an
interest in its growth is not n magnet for a
number, but loyalty combined with
II measure of pleasure will bring to the club
many members who otherwise would not
be attracted. And once they join the club
their interest in other than social activities
can more rcadil be secured.
