Johnson's bill closes the immigra-

who formerly lived in this country
and have been OF now are serving in
the allied armies.
It alsoNOrders the registration Of
all aliens in the United States, and
provides that they must report reEu-
larry to Federal officials. The Secre-
tary OF Labor Is charged with the en-
foreement OF the deportations, and his
decision in any case Is to be fnaI.
Aliens must carry their registration
cards at all times, and show then on
demand TO all officials. They must
report semi-annually to the Commits
sioner General OF immigration, and
any change in residence must be re-
ported
johnson believes the system will
be a great aid to Justiet and Secret
Service agents in keeping q close tab
on the activities of all the aliens with
anarchistie tendencies.
Unless some action of this kind Is
taken now, we are likely to be con-
fronted with a situation that will be

that 1t will admit a large number OF

immigration, we probably will have

be a problem Of great readjustment
ALREADY our cities are crowded to-
the limit and unless we provide for

FLEET ASSEMBLIES
NEAR ANNAPOLIS

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, June IA naval
spectacle never equaled in local wa
tiers will be a unique feature for the
remainder OF June week at the Acad-
envy. The arrival Of a greater por-
ton Of the Atlantic feet, under Ad-
mtral Mayo, WAS announced this
morning by the firing Of q salute Of
seventeen guns from the Academy.
These great ships, joining the six
smaller battleships, under Rear Ad-
miral Britain, already here, formed
a column stretching many miles
down the Chesapeake.
The feet is made up of fifteen
dreadnaughts. headed by the Penn
sylvania, Admiral Mayo's flagship:
six smaller .battleships, an even dozen
Of destroyers, nine submarines and a
number OF auxiliary and smaller
craft including some seaplanes. 1t
is q naval spectacle Of the kind
which. few visitors here have seen,
and it is equally novel to the mid
shipmen now at the Academy.
The salute was the only ceremony
connected with the arrival Of the
feet. Admiral Mayo sent in word
promptly that Rear Admiral Scales,
superintendent of the Naval Acad-
envy, would not be expected to pay
the formal call, as he was so busy
with his duties at the Academy at
this time.

TEACHERS PROTEST
DELAY IN SALARIES

Teachers representing practically
every high school and grade school In
Washington are meeting this after
noon to protest against the with
holding of their salaries for the
month Of May.
The meeting is being held at the
Mckinley Manual Training School.
Resolutions demanding an investi-
cation to place the responsibility for
the failure of the teachers to receive
their salaries, will be presented At
the meeting.
Indignation among the teachers is
widespread, and their opinion OF the
persons responsible for the careless
ness" is being expressed at the meet
ing in terms far from mild.
VIII Get Pay Today.
Alonzo Tweedale, District Auditor,
stated this morning that the teachers
would receive their pay today.
He said that the checks were made
out last night and sent to the Disburs-
ing Officer this morning.
When the checks are presented, so
per cent of'the longevity pay will be
deducted The shortage in funds dis
covered just before the pay checks
were to be made cot, forced the Au
dintor to deduct $4,000 from the
teachers payroll.
Yesterday the auditor presented a
request to Congress for an appro-
priation of $4,000 to cover the de-
Meet in Protest.
The meeting OF the teachers this
afternoon, however, is being held
only to protest against the persons
the delay, and to ask that
all efforts be made to prevent similar
in the future.
One OF the chief grievances Of the
teachers is that the clerks directly
for the muddle, received
their pay checks just the same, while
the teachers were obliged to wait.

Philadelphia OF Detective Guy Bur-
lingame, who was given authority
to visit that and other cities in an
attempt to clear up the Washington
end OF the red" outrages which
struck terror Monday night in a half
dozen cities. 1t is the belief of De-
partment OF Justice agents, headed
by Detective Flynn, that the outrage
in Washington was only one lend"
Of the scheme of anarchist terrorism
and they are determined to strike
at the very root of the evil by locat-
ing the headquarters of the crimi-
mails. which are believed to be either
in Philadelphia or at least in Penn
sylvaDia, or in Paterson, N. ].

either, and Government agents are
at work today trying to connect the
outrages Of Monday night with the
activities of that organization.
William P. Emo, director of the
Home Defense League in Washing
ton, issued the following statement:
''The bomb outrage of Monday night
indicates that every Home Defense
guard and be on the lookout at all
times.
"All persons acting suspiciously
should be Immediately reported to
police headquarters.
"All statements and literature that
are in any way un-American should
be forwarded to police headquarters,

Slain Two Hats


train Will be examined today by Chief
Grants men
Explain Tive Hats.
The mystery of the two hats the
derby, which was torn to shreds, and
the soft. dark gray hat, which was
found intact, was explained by the
police today. 1t is their opinion that
the man wore the soft hat on the
train. and that when he landed in
Washington he doffed it, putting on
the derby, which he was wearing at
the time Of his death by his own
weapon Of destruction.
The police have abandoned the
clue they got yesterday that two
men had been seen at the corner of
Twenty-hrst and r streets shortly be-
fore the explosion. They now believe
that the crime was perpetrated by
one man only.
Another clue, that furnished by
Soldier Policeman Murray, of the
Tenth precinct, is engaging the at
tention Of some Of the detectives to-
day. Murray told Inspector Grant
that he had seen a man whom he de-
scribed Of medium height and stout
walking along Massachusetts, avenue
T.
The man, he said, carried a black
handbag similar to the one in which
the bomb thrower carried the infer
nal machine.
Beck Bought IN Italy.
The English-Italian dictionary,
which was found among the debris
after the explosion, had been pur-
chased in Milan. Italy, the police said
today.
Another clew which may aid in the
Identification OF the anarchist is the
nnoing OF the numbers of the two re-
volvers found in the wreckaee. One.
q Colt automatic, which was broken
70 bits. bore the number 276442, while
the number Of the Smith wesson
which was found intact is 265232
The best judgment of the police to-
day was that the man was approx
mately feet inches tall, weighed
about 160 pounds, wore his black
bushy hair long. and wore a dark
Euit'with green pIn-stripe. He wore
q 1914 collar and ~ hat.
One OF the first precautions taken
by the local police and Department Of
Justice agents was to place heavy
guards around all Government build |
lngs and the residences of Govern
ment officials. The White House and
the Capitol were particularly we'll
guarded The order went through to-
asy prohibiting anyone to enter the !
Capitol building carrying a package
OF any KIND, and the police formerlv
assigned to the White House who had |
seen temporarily assigned to other
quues were ordered back to the i
Presidents home.

GOVT. IGNORANT OF
n. Y. TREATY COPIES
Continued from First Page

CONTINUED from First Page.)
The department has no authority, 1t
was stated, to give the treaty even
to Congress. Officials said that
aside from the political aspect of the
peace situation, publication probably
would not be authorized until the
treaty. is in such form that no i'm
portant corrections are expected.
There are many copies OF sections
Of the treaty dealing with finance, in
this country. It was stated. There
has been little secrecy about these
sections and others regarded as COM
pleted. The alien enemy property

tions OF the treaty, and il is thought
probable these sections also may be
in private hands.
1.-THE text OF the peace treaty as
subRaitted to Germany will certainly
be read in the Senate and into the
Congressional Record within the next
forty-eight hours. II the State Depart
ment persists in its refusal to furnish
the Senate with q copy OF It"
Says Wal street Has Copies.
This prediction was made today by
Senator Borah, Progressive Repub-
lican, of Idahoe who also declared
that he possessed indisputable evi-
dence that authentic copies Of the
peace treaty were in the possession |
Of big business and financial interests |
In New York city which he defied ,
the State Department to disprove.
II saw the peace treaty in New
York city; I had It in my hands; 1 |
had ample opportunity to examine |
1t; I know exactly what 1t contains;
I know exactly how many printed /
pages it is composed of, how many 1
words approximately it is composed |
Of" was the equally emphatic dec
laration OF Senator Lodge, Repub-
lican, of Massachusetts. chairman Of |
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
nittee, and leader of the Senate ma
iority.
Opposition SOlidIaed.
Discovery that copies Of the peace
treaty had reached powerful interests
in New York city. while the Senate
was still denied an opportunity to
peruse it, coupled with the statement
of Acting SECRETARY of State Polk thar
probably certain financial agreements
in the peace treaty had
reached certain New York financial
men through their Paris representa-
ives, had served to solidify the oppo-
;ition in the Senate to the proposed
league OF nations. II was stated by
both Republican and Democratic SEN
ltors who are avowed antileaguers.
"If New York financial interests
we're granted the privilege OF -examin-
ng certain financial agreements,
which the Acting Secretary Of State
admitted was probbale+ privilege
lot granted the Senate-surely the
Senate is entitled, to examine what

peace treaty may contain" Senator
3orah said.

It was also stated by Senator Borah

hone from that city to Washington

 "As employers we should do every thing we can; we should be willing to make a personal sacrifice, not merely a sacrifice of money, but time and energy to make clear not only to our workers but to the pub lie, that we desire as progressive Americans, to better laboring condi- tions and the community" he said.
 Preceding the dinner, the associa- tion held a business meeting at which officers reports were read, and the reelection of the present officers took place.
