PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2.-Prepara- tions for the enforce;neut of neu- trality regulations were made here today by the collector of the port in cooperation with officials at the navy yard. The torpedo boat de stroyer Jouett was stationed inside the Delaware breakwater tonight with orders to examine all ships and let none pass without clearance papers.
 Four steamers. two British, and two Swedish, bearing capacity cargoes. sailed from here today for ports in the forbidden area outlined by Ger many. Six others obtained clearance papers.
 At the navy yard there was unusual activity about the warehouses of the Atlantic reserve fleet throughout the day.
 The guard of marines in and about the navy yards was greatly augmented and no person will be permitted to visit the warships without special permission. The marine detachment on duty at the village of interned of ficers and sailors of the German aux iliary cruisers Kronprinz Wilhelm. and Prinz Eitel Frederick. was dou- bled, and their rifles were loaded with ball cartridges.

Fate of Americans in Teu- tonic Countries Uncertain. Spain May Represent the United States There.
tBy Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Co-
 operation by many neutral pow CTS with the United States in
 whatever action is taken is fore
 cast here as distinct possibility.
 The whole neutral diplomatic
 terest hardly unsurpassed during
 the war, as the double question is
 involved, not only of what the
 United States is going to do, but
 what action their own govern
 ments will take. Admittedly the
 action Of part at least of the neu-
 trsis will be most decisively in-
 fluenced by that of the United
 States and no attempt is made to
 conceal the eagerness with which
 the American decision is awaited.
 All Affected. No other proposition of the war has so completely affected all neutrals alike, it is pointed out The German note was addressed to all of them and its effects will operate apparently without any distinction of nationality The European neutrals are struck in their vitals; the South American neu- trals, as shown by their first press comment, are hardly less affected through the cutting off of their for eign trade.
 latins With Us
 Press comment from South America has indicated that part of the pub lie opinion there favors identical ac- ton with that of the United States.
 Spain May Act for U. S. The Spanish ambassador, Mir. Riano, called at the state department today. largely for information and also. it is understood. with the thought that Spain might be asked to take over the affairs of the United States and of the countries which the United States represents in case of an actual break. He is known, however. not to have been approached on that sub ject as yet Just what would happen to American interests in the belliger- ent countries in the event of a break is not known
 The actual accomplishments of the German campaign are being watched with the deepest interest and now that a second day has passed. of ficials are inclined to believe the cam paign may be more spectacular than fatal. In this connection the state meht of Rear Admiral Lacaze. French minister of marine, that only one-half of one per cent of all the shipping en- tering French ports nthe last eleven months had been sunk is regarded of timely interest
 Public opinion as reported from abroad is being keenly watched and qualification is expressed that the al lies press is fully cognizant of the difficulties here and is showing a con fident restraint

CATHOLIC PARTY EXPECTS
MUCH OF POPE'S EFFORT

Copenhagen. Aug. 22.-After Chan
eellor Michaels had informed the main
committee OF the reichstag Tuesday
that Germany would not reply to the
papal note until she had consulted her
allies, socialist speakers who followed
him said they welcomed the pope's ac-
tion as they would welcome any step
capable of bringing peace. and all the
more because it was expected to bear
results. The liberals declared them
selFes IN agreement with the chan
cellor's sympathetic Interpretation of
the pope's action. The centerists lined
themselves with the chancellor's re-
marks and said the pope's proposal
marks extraordinarily valuable prog
ress towards peace which was so
ardently desired by all nations. They
hoped the act of his holiness would
meet with full success

Copenhagen, Aug. 22.-The

liable information that the pope's
peace note is in absolute harmony
with the aims of the monarchy.
Austria-Hungary, according to the
paper is willing TO evacuate oc-
cupied territories and renounce
claim to indemnities once the
pope's ideas OF disarmament, in
ternational arbitration and free
dom of the seas are gained, but
all the consequences deducible
from the pope's proposals must be
understood to be included thereon,
namely, the disappearance of
British naval bases at Gibraltar,
Malta and the Suez canal and the
Italian abandonment of Verona.

To Change Provisions.

1t is suggested that some provision
may be made whereby all the sons of
one family will not be taken. az well
as new definition of the status of
married men. President Wilson's re-
cent letter to Senator Weeks is taken
to indicate that a more liberal policy
may be found desirable. At present
actual dependency must be established
to obtain exemption. The condition of
marriage, in itself. is not considered.
Another problem is the status of
aliens.
Still another is the case of men who
nave passed beyond draft age since
being called and of those who have
become of draft age in the meantime.
