ordinator.
He said in Los Angeles last night
that 1t. Gen. John L.. De Witt,
Western defense commander, was
preparing detailed descriptions of
the additional military areas and
said they should be ready for desig-
nation Saturday.
I'VE do not plan any mass evacu-
alton. The deadline will be set
with a view to allow them time to
move voluntarily. When the dead
line is reached we will take out all
4 aliens and any American-born jap
anese we think necessary"
5000 Moved From 46 Areas.
The announcement followed close
ly the evacuation of some 5000
enemy aliens from 46 prohibited
areas. F. B. I. agents we're check
ing to make sure the evacuation
order had been followed. Other
thousands of enemy aliens in still
other sections were living under a

ments at night.

BiddIe Paroles so Pet.
OF Enemy Aliens Seized

Attorney General Biddle has Or
dered parole or release for approx
mately 90 per cent of enemy aliens
now under arrest whose cases have
been heard by enemy alien boards.
Through February 10, Attorney
General Biddle had acted on total
of 1904 individual such cases heard
by local boards, and reviewed by the
alien enemy control unit of the JUS
tice Department. OF this number,
448 were ordered interned for the
duration of the war, 421 were placed
on parole and 215 were released out
right. To date, 1877 alien enemies
have actually been delivered to the
Army for internment. Others will
be turned over by the department
as rapidly as plans for their safe
keeping are completed, officials said.
OF 448 aliens ordered interned, 255
are Germans, 156 japanese and 81
Italians. The paroled group in
cludes 274 Germans, 102 japanese
and As Italians.
The Justice Department also an
nounced that the F. B. l., through
yesterday, had apprehended 5,152
enemy aliens. This total includes
$3.50 japanese, 1882 Germans and
1863 Italians.
Enemy aliens not considered dan
gerous enough to be interned are
paroled, the Justice Department
said
The procedure usually followed is
to require them to report at regular
intervals to a sponsor-a reputable
United States citizen who knows
the alien personally and will vouch
for his good behavior-and to the
nearest parole officer of the Immi-
grafton and Naturalization Service" !"
it was said. ANY infraction of spe-
cial parole requirements, or of the
regulations governing alien enemies
generally, may result in immediate
internment for the duration of the
war"
