turn Xmas Day.

Aliens, barred from the District
under the order requiring enemy
aiiens to leave cities and districts
where war work was being carried
on, VIII be permitted to return to
the city tomorrow, according to a
wireless order of the President re-
celVed yesterday by the Depart
ment of Justice.
The Presidents act will mean that
nearly 700 persons Of German and
Austrian nationality, former resi-
dents of the District, may return
home on Christmas Day.
Rtter receiving the Presidents
radiogram yesterday the Depart
ment OF Justice issued the follow
ing statement:
ON the recommendation OF the
Attorney General, the President has
directed that on and after Christ
mas Day the Attorney General dis
continue enforcement of all regu-
lations affecting the conduct of male
and female German alien enemies.
except those restrictions which ap-
ply to entry into and departure from
the country and those affecting the
power of interment.
This means that on Christmas Day
the permit and pass systems effective
against these aliens will be abolished
all over the country and that all pro-
htbited areas and restricted zones will
go out of existence, All registration
regulations will likewise cease, and it
VIII no longer be necessary for Ger
man alien enemies TO obtain permits
Tor change of residence. In short,
they will be freed of all restrictions
affecting places OF residence and of
employment.
While many of these forced to leave
under the exclusive act were loyal
Americans, who in all probability will
return Immediately, there were a
number of persons who are not ex-
pected to return and whose residence
IN the city was regarded with sus-
picion by the authorities. Particularly
was this true in the case of a number
OF walters in down town hotels, men
OF education of intelligence far above
the average. II is generally believed
these men were German agents.

Do NOT DEPRIVE
WORKMEN OF BEER
IS COLBY'S PLEA
Member of the Shipping Board
Declares Closing BreWerieS
Would Decrease Efficiency
of ShipyardS,

Washington. June l9.-prnside1t
Wilson Is understood TO have declined
today to interpose active opposition
for the present at least, to the Jones
amendment to the, 81 ,000, 900 emerg-
ency agricultural appropriation bill
providing for absolute prohibition
during the war.
The president Is said TO have taken
the position that, while he would have
preferred precipitation of the pro
hibition question by separate legisla-
ton, he would not at this time inter-
fere in the matter at least so long
as it does not hold up final enact
ment of the emergency agricultural
bill or other necessary legislation.
Should IL interfepre with such legis-
lation, 1t is understood, the president
might step In and ask that the amend
ment be eliminated.
Senator Smith Of South Carolina
acting chairman of the senate agri-
culture committee, the president, and
Rainbridge Colby, representing Chair
man Hurley of the shipping board,
conferred on the question today.
Mr.. Colby told the committee that
10 take beer away from shipyard en-
ployes would reduce their efficiency
and result in a reduction of new ship
tonnage of about 25 per cent.
In spite of this opposition. prohi-
bition leaders expressed confidence
that the amendment would be favora
bly, reported to the senate. The COM
mittee will meet again tomorrow and
acting Chairman Smith hopes to
reach a vote before the end of the
day.
