FORMER ATTACHES OF EMBAs- SY AND CONSULATES ARE
 NOT DESIRED.
TIGHTEN THE SPY NETS
State Department Notifies Many Ger man Officials That Their Presence in America Is Undesirable and Re-
 quest Them to Leave U. s.

Washington.-All Germans, former. ly connected either with the embassy or any one of the many consulates in America, have been requested to leave the United States.
 Notification that their presence in America is undesirable has been sent to them by the State Department. They were not told that they were suspected of being spies, but the iff-- ference of their loyalty to the kaiser might make it difficult for them to remain in this country without at tempting to send information of mil itary character to their government. was made clear
 Among the first to go will be Hein- rich Schaafhausen, formerly attach ed to the German embassy, but left behind by Count yon Bernstorff, and since attached to the department of German interests of the Swiss leg2 tion. In addition to Schaafhausen.. there is long train of clerks and seryants-at least they have served in such capacities in this country although the government has no means of knowing definitely what the exact status of most of them is with the German government. There is ground for belief that some of them are persons of more importance to the German intelligence system.
 Dr. George Barthleme, the author of the much discussed dispatch to the Cologne Gazette at the time dip lomatic relations were severed, still is in Washington, but is required to report to certain government officials in person twice a week. Although the bulk of the German and Austrian embassy staffs departed with their ambassadors, two of Germany's allies still have their representative here.
 There are many indications that the government is taking steps to tighten the spy net and make even more difficult the going of military in- formation to Germany.
 When the government agreed to all low the transfer of many former German employees to the Swiss lega- ton and consulates there was no state of war between tie United States and Germany. But the declar- ation of war and the knowledge that Germany maintains an efficient. spy system here have changed the gov ernment's attitude.

Washington-Thed drafted armies of t.the least inequality and personal hardship"
 President Wilson, In issuing regua- tions for the working of the draft, urged upon every member of every draft board Impartial and fearless per formance of the delicate and difficult duties intrusted," in order that ''our armies at the front may be composed of men free from sense of injustice in their mode of selection
 To Fix Date for Board Meetings.
 In the near future a date will be set by Brig. Gen. Crowder, provost mar shal-general, for the meeting and or ganization of the boards. At the same time 1t Is expected that the selection regulations will be promulgated so that the process may be put under way without delay. The present intention is to call the men selected to the col lors about September 1.
 All Forces on Equal Footing.
 President Wilson's statement fol- lows:
 '.The regulations which I am today causing to be promulgated, pursuant to the direction of the selective service law, cover the remaining steps of the plan for calling into the service of the United States qualified men from those who have registered; those se- dected as the result of this process to constitute, with the regular army, the National guard and the navy, the fight Ing forces of the nation, all of which forces are under the terms of the law placed in a position of equal right, dignity and responsibility with the members of all other military forces.
 "The regulations have been drawn with a view to the needs and circum- stances of the whole country and pro- vide system which it is expected will work with the least inequality and per sonal hardship. Any system of select ing men of military service, whether voluntary or involuntary in it's opera ton, necessarily selects some men to bear the burden of danger and sacri- fee for the whole nation. The system here provided places all men of mili- tary age upon an even plane, and then by a selection which neither favors the one nor penaliZes the other, calls upon the requisite number for service.
 Urges Boards to Act lmpartialIy.
 "The successful operation of this law and of these regulations depends necessarily upon the loyalty, patriotism and justice of the members of the boards to whom its operation is com .mitted, and I admonish every member of every local board and of every dis trict board of review that their duty to their country requires an impartial and fearless performance of the deli cate and difficult duties intrusted to them. They should remember as to each individual case presented to them that they are called upon to adjudicate the most sacred rights of the individ- ,ual and to preserve untarnished the honor of the nation.
 "Our armies at the front will be strengthened and sustained if they be composed of men free from any sense of injustice in the mode of selection and they will be inspired to loftier eff forts in behalf of country In which the citizens called upon to perform
