From the time. he opened his office at 8 o'clock until 11:30 all Clerk Logan could tell his German visitors was that he was expecting the United States marshal at any moment. Shortly before noon, a young lady him that she representing Storen walked into Logan's office and informed and had come to register the employes of the General Electric plant. -She begun her. work in the company's offee on Broadway at 1 o'clock.

As hardly any of Germans seeking information at the postoffice were employed by the General Electric; Clerk Logan could give them little satisfaction, even after, the arrival of the deputy marshal. All he could tell them was that he would have to wait for further instructions and that they should come back or call tomorrow. So at present, the registration of the "alien enemies" in Fort. Wayne is very much up in the air, the only definite fact being that the registration must be completed by Saturday night. Prohibited Zones.

As far. as it can be ascertained the prohibited zones, in which no German who is not: a fully naturalized citizen of the United States, can live, work or go, in Fort Wayne, are those areas within half a mile of the General Electric company's plants, the S. F. Bowser company, the Wayne Oil Tank the Western Gas Construction ana an other plants producing war munitions. The half mile zone around the federal building is not restricted district, the deputy marshal said.

Who Must Register. Citizens of Germany only are considered alien enemies. Subjects of Austria, Turkey and other countries are not considered as alien enemies, 08 war has been declared only on Germany. Permits are required only of men and of boys over fourteen years of age. Where a German subject wishes to be employed or continue in employment, his employer must accompany him to sign his application paper.

Where a German subject wishes to engage in business or merely reeide in a forbidden area in Port Wayne he must be accompanied by responsible American citizen who must sign his appli-1 cation. Officers of a corporation below the position of superintendent are not permitted to sign application blanks as employers. Permits will be issued for cities of where else. The application Indiana only and are. not good angel forwarded to Washington and the permit will be issued after the application is approved.

Summary arrest and detention of all alien enemies found within the restricted limits will follow after Saturday night, June '9: Norway's abundant deposits of titanium ore are to be utilized for the man-! ufacture of dyes and pigments a recently formed company.

Some persons in high places were touched, once upon a time, with curiosity.

"It would be fun to what sort of a living the world can make with one band tied behind its back!" they remarked and so saying started the debacle involving half the nations. But their curiosity wasn't satisfied. "Let's see if the world can make any sort of a living with. both hands tied behind its back they' proposed, and drew the rest of the nations into the debacle. Hostilities were prolonged during a number of years, but in consideration of what they settled in the event they were well worth while.

-Exchange. authorities and detectives. It is turned believed that the millionaire has over the ransom money over to the abductors and they are waiting for the excitement to die down before restoring the child. The inactivity of the police and detectives on the case, who have been held in leash because of the reticence of the Keet family, has caused much speculation. Keet gives as his reason for refusing to aid authorities that he wants "to play.

square" with the abductors and that he fears his child will be mutilated or killed if the police press the kidnappers too closely. "Unless the information divulged by Keet to the authorities or the grand jury shows conclusively reasons that running to. earth any clews he has would regult in harm to the baby, he will be forced to tell all he knows," one official said. Judge. Johnson, who has been active in the search, hinted that there were reasons to believe the baby had been to recovered and that his family, living up demands of the abductors, are keeping the matter secret for a specified length of time.

In the Ypres sector the heavy bombardment of German positions continued, but there was no Infantry lighting.

Military experts here believed Haig was testing out various spots in the German line, making ready for a resumption of his drive.

"No," the Prussian concluded, it's too late; you can't harm us much. now." The plain truth is that Germany is prepared to fight a telling defensive war indefinitely--provided she is able to keep her hungry population in line.

The Prussian officer and prisoners generally agree to this, basing their hopes principally on the U- boats, a separate peace with Russia and the "sliggish, half hearted American public." Talks with German prisoners 'and documents captured in British advance do not encourage the belier that there will be a German revolution, at least not The junkers still control Germany and is rampant .28 ever. And the German high command, despite terrific losses in men, is depending on machine guns and barbed wire to compensate for the thinning ranks in Germany's line. So "the only antidote is to fight: If 'the Germans are to be beaten 'in the field, then the fight will necessarily be long.
