HOW AMERICANS IN
 GERMANY ARE TO BE TREATED
Not as Enemy Foreigners, But Merely
 as Non- n-Neutrais

Berlin. Saturday. April 2s. Via Lon- don. April 29. 1:10 D. m.-Although the police circular ordering Americans to report daily to the police stations and to remain indoors between 10 D. m- and a. m. sets forth that Amer jeans are to be treated henceforth as enemy foreigners, officials of the foreign office say this is true only in modified form. At the foreign office 1t is still said Germany has not recog- nized the American declaration of the existence of a state of war and that therefore Americans are not enemy foreigners, but merely non-neutrals. They point out the fact that the po- lice rules with reference to Americans are less strict than those applied to the English. French and Russians. who are not interned. They are re- quired to report twice daily to the po- lice Moreover. the police have been directed to waive the rules wherever possible. In the meantime all Ameri- cans are -reauired to observe them-
