GOVERNMENT IS PLEASED
WITH BEHAVIOR GERMANS
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 26.—
Gratifying reports have been made to
the department of justice on the be
! havior of Germans and German
Americans following the declaration
of a state of war between the two
nations. While about 100 special ar
rests have been ordered and others
expected, Attorney General Gregory
said last night that so far the situa
tion is very encouraging.
The attorney general and Assistant
General Warren, in charge of plot in
vestigations, discussed with President
Wilson late yesterday afternoon the
activities of Germans in the United
States and in Central and South
America.
As a result of this request that
government employes in all parts of
the country watch carefully for the
activities of German agents, many re
ports are being isvestigated.
Although some reports have indi
dicated that German spies are em
ployes of the government service so
far there have been no arrests. De
partment of justice officials would
not say tonight whether any were ex
pected.
Many protests have been made
against the provision of President
Wilson’s war proclamation forbidding
“enemy aliens” from living or tres
passing within one-half mile of gov
ernment arsonals, navy yards or other
government property having to do
with national defense.
Permits may be issued for some
exceptions to the general rule.
To strengthen the position of the
government in hunting down and
prosecuting spies the espionage bill
which failed of passage at the last
session of congress will be pushed to
early enactment.
ENTIRE FAMILY TO
FIGHT FOR COUNTRY
RUSHVILLE, Ind., April 28.—
Since A. L. Stewart, city engineer, has
offered his services as a civil engineer
Mrs. Stewart, formerly a telegraph
operator, has written to Daniel Wil
lard, chairman of the transportation
and communication committee of the
council of defense, that she will serve
in the capacity of telegrapher if she is
needed. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart’s only
child, Simeon Stewart, who is a stu
dent at Purdue university, expects to
enlist when a company is formed
there. Mrs. Stewart wrote the follow
ing letter to Senator Watson, asking
his assistance:
“Dear Mr. Watson: Lon shall go if
accepted. I feel as though I might be
as useful to my country in my capaci
ty as he is in his. Consequently I
have written Daniel Willard, chair
man of the transportation and com
munication , national council of de
fense, offering my services because of
my ability and experience as a teleg
rapher.
“I was not a bit backward, either,
in telling him of a few other ways in
which I might render service in this
crisis.
“I want to go with the first and
stay until the last Prussian has his
dues—what can you do for me?”
