Separated From That
for Men.

Owing to rush of war orders placed
with local firms and the subsequent de-
mand for workers from these firms, the
United States employment service for
the District of Columbia is about to be
divorced" again.
Within the week. it is expected, the
women and girls division of the serv-
ice will move from the first floor of the
new Labor Department building, where
it shares Offices with the mems di-
vision, to offices more centrally located.
The exact location of the new offices
is still undecided. pending negotiations,
but it is understood that the offices
will be admirably located for the con-
venience of scores of women and girls
who are availing themselves of the
services offered by the women and
girls division.
Removal of the women's section will
leave the mems division, headed by E.
NJ. Kline, in entire possession of the
quarters at the Labor Department.
Both divisions of the local employment
service have been extended to take care
of applicants for jobs from Alexandria,
Fairfax, Loudoun. Prince William, STAFF

NEW RULES ISSUED
BY CENSOR CREEL
Newspapers in Future Are Not
to Mention Arrivals
of Troops.
STATEMENT IS 'SC0LDING'

New press regulations making mate
rial changes in the voluntary censor
ship rules under which American
newspapers have been operating were
promulgated last night by the COM
mittee on public information.
The new regulations contain the first
general request that there be no pub
lished mention of the arrival of Ameri-
can troops at European ports. replac-
ing in that respect an express author
ization in the old rules for use of any
cable dispatches passed by the Eu-
ropean censors.
Other sections of the old regulations
are made more severe by specific stipu-
lationS in place of the more general
language employed in the rules in force
until now Information which the gov
eminent considers might reveal mill
tary movements or policies is de-
scribed in great detail.

observed in all matters of:

or boat movements of troops. Such in
formation is at all times and under all
circumstances dangerous and should be
scrupulously avoided.

directly to disclose the. number or

To Avert misunderstanding"

In the statement announcing the new
regulations. George Creel. chairman, of
the committee. says that repeated and
serious violations of the voluntary CEN
sorship have been attempted to be ex-
cused on the score of misunderstand-
ing and that a "restatement is made
with the idea that hereafter there shall
be no room for doubt as to the COM
mittee's desires.
The instances in which the most seri-
Que charges of viola ton have been
made. however, have not resulted from
misunderstanding of the committees
rules. but from following them i'm
plicitly. These instances have involved
publication of dispatches passed by the
European censors announcing the ar
rival of American military units in
Europe. On this subject the commit
tees only standing rule, contained in
the general list promulgated May %
and never replaced or revoked, was as
follows:
"All messages received from abroad
by cable or wireless are censored at
the point Of dispatch or receipt and
are free for publication unless some
especial circumstance arouses the sus-
piciOn of the editor
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-07-31
Approved by Mr.. Burleson.

Secretary Baker and Mr.. Creel were
seen together at the formers Office by
representative of the Associated
Press In reply to a question as to
whether he subscribed to the language
in the paragraph discussing alleged vio-
lations. Mr.. Baker said he had approved
the whole statement. although he had
not written it. Mr.. Creel said that Sec
rotary Daniels, who could not be reach
ed last night. also had approved the
statement before it was issued.
Mr.. Baker authorized the statement
that he had in mind, in relation to the
strong language employed by Mr..
Creel, no specific newspaper or press
association. In the harsh language
used. he insisted, the purpose had been
to do what many press representatives
asked to be done, to "scold" Offenders.
The Secretary said he had received
report from the war college, showing
nine separate items published in Ameri-
can papers of recent date. which the Of
ficers at the college regarded as fur
nishing valuable information to the
enemy.
Mr.. Creel said he agreed in what the
Secrtary had said. He declared that the
purpose of the paragraph referred to
was general, not directed at any specific
case or cases. In that view, Mr.. Creel
added, he felt certain that he spoke for
Secretary Daniels also.
The whole purpose of the new regu-
lation, both Mr.. Baker and Mr.. Creel
insisted, was to make impossible any
future misunderstanding Of what was
desired.

specified above should not be published.
Criticism Of Newspapers.

Criticism Of Newspapers.
Repeated and serious violations Of the
voluntary censorship have been attempted
to be excused on the score Of misunder-
standing or lack of positive Information.
Pains have been taken to mako this re-
statement OF necessary secrecies so com
plete and explicit as to leave no room Tor
honest ignorance or dishonorable evasion.
Neither do the requests go forth with any
time limit. Their application covers the
period Of the war. At no point do they
touch opinion or criticism. being con-
cerned entirely with the protection OF the
lives of Americas defenders and the sue
cess of military plans.
''These requests go to the press with
out larger authority than the necessities
of the war making branches. Their en-
forcement is matter for the press itself.
To the overwhelming proportion OF the
newspapers. who have given unselfish pa
triotic adherence to the voluntary agree
ment, the government extends its graft
tude and high appreciation.
