Dismissing reports that the veteran
fighting craft from European waters
might anchor in the harbor Christmas
day, reforming the following morn
ing for the naval parade, the vice adj
mirals assistants declared that in no
case would these ships make their
appearance in the upper harbor be-
fore they had passed the presidential

more likely. they said that the home

RESTRICTIONS ON
ENEMY ALIENS To
LIFT CHRISTMAS


Washington, Dec. 23,--Al restric-
tons on German enemy aliens ex-
cept those applying to entry into and
departure from the United States and
those affecting the power of intern
ment, were ordered removed today by
Attorney General Gregory, effective
Christmas day.
This action was taken on cabled in
structions from President Wilson. and
will affect about 500,6 German men
and women.
II was explained that the depart
ment of justice would continue to ex-
ercise the power of internment of
dangerous German enemy aliens and
that the order would not affect such
aliens already informed.
John Lord O'Brien, special assistant
tc the attorney general, explaining
why Austrians were not mentioned in
the order, said that the only regu-
lations ever applied TO them were
those with reference to entry and de-
parture and internment. The effect
of today's action is to place Germans
and Austrans on the same footing.
Approximately 100000 Germans
would be relieved from the necessity
of carrying permits for entry into re-
strcted areas, while the prohibited
areas from which they were excluded
absolutely. would again be open to
them. These were the District of CO.
lumhia. the Panama canal zone. and
all water fronts.
Internment is continuing. Mr..
O'Brian said, ten Germans having
been informed on Saturday and six
more today. 1t was learned unoffic-
tally at the department of justice that

The Zabern affair was stated by
Lieutenant Won Baron Forstner who
ridiculed the Alsatians. During an
outbreak several weeks later, the
lieutenant cut down lame shoemak-

ed indignation in the reichstag and
the offending lieutenant and other
officers were tried by court martial
They were acquitted but the indigna-
ton of the Alsatians brought about
the resignation of Governor General

Majority Wants Republic.
German Austria has almost unani-
mously decided upon republic. The
new government emphaticaly de-
clares that return to monarchidl
rule would be extremely distasteful
to the majority of the people There
fore il trusts that monarchical
form of government will not be pre-
scribed fortthe country at the peace
conference.
This special pleading to let the Ger
man Austrians determine for them
selves what they wish is due to rumors
that have reached Vienna to- the eff
feet that the entente powers are con-
sdering the reinstatement of the
Hapsburg rule as a counterpoise to
possible Hohenzollern influence.
Official circles here profess them
selves unable to conceive what pos
sble interest the entente and Amer
lea could have in seeking such re-
storation.
Apart from the steady progress
which republican views made during
the war and the equally extraordinary
Wanc of dynastic popularity, the peo-
pie of German Austria saw that the
upkeep Of the emperor and his estab-
lishment with no less than sixty nine
archdukes and archduchesses, const-
tuted a grave burden even for the
former empire, with nearly GO, 100000
people,
Cannot Afford Monarchy.
1t would now be utterly impossible
to maintain such a monarchy. with a
population adjustments, cannot eX-
coed 100000. This view is shared
by the people of the outlying crown
lands, such as the Tyrol and Salzburg,
which was formerly devoted to the
dynasty
Official circles admit that the pres
ent Coalition government is the out
come of necessity and may not prove
permanent, owing to the conflict of
classes, which is continually growing
sharper. Nevertheless the govern
ment Is convinced that Austrian labor
is not prone to Rolshevisn
The outcome will depend on the
results of efforts to obtain sufficient
food and coal to avert an imminent
catastrophe. II IS of prime import
ance to alleviate the misery OF the
masses. In measures for relief the
government counts on the goFa Of
fices of the entente.
Contrary to reports that have been
spread in neutral countries, demoDil-
ization of the late Austrian army was
accomplished with remarkable rapid
ity and without social disorder.
