Looking forward to peace condi'

number of recommendations for re,
form Of judicial processes Although
he referred to the difficulty of push
ing antitrust prosecutions during the
war since the government itself has
been in the business Of suppressing
competition, he made no suggestions
for new antitrust legation which Con-
gress is expected to undertake soon
War activities claimed the princi,

referring to the growth OF the De-
partment's secret service to six times
its size in 1916, and the efficient or
ganization OF the American Protective

Mr.. Gregory said:

the lapse of time, to disclose fully tht

the war.

that the secret services "have give1

Discussing the enforcement OF anti

said:
when natural laws OF trade break
down, as they have done during tbs

government action with respect to
prices and methods OF distribution
may become essential in order to pre-
vent private control Of markets. for
when natural laws OF trade can no
longer be depended upon to refhlats
markets, the only choice is between
artificial control imposed by private
interests and artificial control I'M
posed by public agencies. In these
circumstances, therefore, such direct

Washington, Dec. 5.-The story OF
how enemy agents have been caught,
disloyalty suppressed. draft slackers
apprehended, dangerous Germans In
termed. explosions and other sabotage
prevented, and enemy secrets ferrett-
ed out for use against their armies
abroad was given to the public today
in Attorney General T. W. Gregory's
annual report. Through a great corps
of Department of Justice civil officers
secret agents and citizen volunteers
this big Job of policing has been &C
complished, said the attorney general
with a minimum disturbance to the
normal life of communities, and with
constant effort to avoid encronching
on freedom of speech, action and po-
litical criticism.
Referring to enforcement OF the es'
pionage act, Mr.. Gregory said:
"This department throughout the
war has proceeded upon the general
principle that the constitutional right
Of free speech, free assembly, and Pc
tition exist in war time as in peace
time. and that the right OF discussion
of governmental policy and the right
of political agitation are the most fun
damental rights in democracy.
At the same time, the attorney gen.
eral explained, the Department had
tried to deal severely with propagan
da having for a deliberate purpose the
disintegration of the countrys war
strength.
"One OF the distinct achievements OF
the American people" he said, has
heen the maintenance Of order, the
comparative failure Of enemy activi
ties and, speaking broadly, the gener
al self-control and self-restraint
exhibited throughout the country in
critical situations"
The Attorney General disclosed tha
only 5000 enemy aliens have been ar
rested on presidential warrants ant
examined with a view to internmen
and that "a considerable number" o
these have been placed in internmen
camps administered by the army Th'
balance were paroled, Most enemies
interned were German men, and Their

London, Dec. 5.--Lord Morris, in
advocating the establishment of a port
of call for Atlantic liners on the West
coast of Ireland, told a parliamentary
committee 1t would facilitate trade
between Ireland and Canada by way
of New Foundland, as under existing
conditions this trade had to pass
through Liverpool or Glasgow, which
necessitated delay. He also urged the
movement on the ground that 1t would
affect passenger traffic, since passen'
gers invariably preferred the shortest
possible sea route

also has been more lenient thai, those
of England and France, the Attorney
General stated, and the efficacy Of the
methods and principles are evidenced
by the good order generally main
tanned.
Systematic disloyal propaganda
became failure during the first year
OF the war" he said. Shortly after
our entry into the war this propagan-
da, supported chiefly by those :nflu-
ences and organizations which had op'
posed the declaration OF war, mani
tested itself in distinct opposition to
the adoption, and operation of the Sc
lective service act, but this type Of
propaganda was almost Immediately
suppressed and destroyed. It was fol.
lowed by manifestations Of propagan
da of an economic and social char
acter, clearly supported in the main,
by sympath1zers with the enemy pow
ers. This general type OF propaganda
reached Its height In the autumn Of
1917, but gained no great headway
and was declining by Jan. 1, 1918.
Various other types Of propaganda
have appeared sporadically but none
of them have gained any substantial
footing, and 1t may be fairly said that
prior to July /, 1918, the effort of Ger
man sympathizers in the field Of dis
loyal propaganda had almost com
pletely failed"
The Department has been ham
pered In suppressing propaganda. sait
the Attorney General, by "self-ap
pointed committees or associations o
citizens who, ignorant OF or dissatis
fed with the scope of the federal laws
or Jurisdiction, have sought to sup
plement them by extra-legal messureI
OF intimidation and punishment" An
other hampering influence was th
dissemination OF hundreds OF unbound
cd reports relating to use OF polsol
gas by enemy agents, ground glass Il
food, and damage to Red Cross sup
plies.
Referring to difficulties with mem
bers of the J. W. W, "pseudo-social
lists" and similar bodies, the Attorne
General said
at has beer the policy Of this De
rartment that no person should b
prosecuted or informed solely BY rea
