ing.
T To all OWNERS and operators of each

ted States marshal and Unjust have

Strict Regulations
The regulations stipulate that the
cost Of the three photographs must be
borne by the holder of the pass or his
employer without any rule that binds
the employer to furnish the photo
graphs.
OF the three, passes, the United
states marshal retains one which is
filed in his Office, another is returned
to the employer, and the other is kept
by the bearer. Strict regulations are
imposed upon the rehabilitation in
spectOrs" relating to trusting to mem
DRY instead of insisting upon seeing
the pass
A further regulation Of the new in
structiOns is to the effect that the hold
or of the pass shall be entitled to en-
ter only the particular wharf, pier
dock, or other waterfront facility men
toned in his pass. The regulations 90
on to stipulate that "the description
in the waterfront pass Of the wharf
pier, dock or other waterfront facility
for which such pass is issued must be
accurate and definite, in order that its
use may be limited to the particular
premises therein described"
The new rules are an elaboration and
supplementary explanation of Regula
ton Thirteen of the proclamation Of
the President issued November 10. This
established barred zone about the
waterfront facilities covered by in.
structiOns which were enforceable by
the United States marshal. It is es
pecially noted in the instructions TO

States marshal shall have discretion
in the ease of all persons for whom
shall passes be issued TO German alien
enemies.
