NEED PERMITS
FOR CHANGING
OF RESIDENCE
The latest instructions to be re
ceived by the marshal's office from the
attorney general relating to the status
of a German female alien, who is
registered with the registrar of any
district, states that a permit is neces
sary before such registrant will be
permitted to make a change of resi
dence.
The registrant in making a change
of residence to another place in the
same district is required to immedi
ately report such change to the regis
tration officer. Should a change to
another district he desired a permit
must be obtained from either the reg
istrar or his assistant. A change of
residence in violation of the regula
tions subjects an alien enemy, among
other penalties to arrest and deten
tion for the period of the war.
The registration officer is the post
master of the town in which the regis
trant lives and to him should the ap
plication be made for the permit or
the notification of a change of resi
dence being made.
Should a female alien enemy desire
to leave the country or section in

Lory for another state or country, per
mission must he secured from the
United States attorney, his assistant
i>r the clerk of the office of such at
Lorney. A registrant leaving the coun
try without the nee ssur> permit is

provided for. It would he well for
all who come under his classification

SAILORS CARE
FOR WOUNDED
CZECHOSLAVS
VLADIVOSTOK, Oct. 11.—Wounded
Czechs and Slovaks, victims of the
fighting north of Xikolsk. were tin*
special charges of the officers and
men of an American warship prior to
tin* arrival of the American Red Cross
contingent from Tokio. They were
attended by the ship's dot tor. fed by
the ships steward .and waited upon
day and night by tin- big-hearted sail
ors.
When the need became apparent
Admiral Knight ordered a near-by
warehouse emptied of its contents and
there he improvised a hospital. Sev
eral of th** more serious cases had to
he* removed to a marine hospital for
special treatment. They begged to
return to their cots in the warehouse
and the ministrations of the "Jackies."
The efforts of the latter to outdo one
another in showing kindness to the
wounded men was touching. They
gave up their beds and pillows to
thorn
When the C/ooh:. nrriw .l tin y wore
uuturnlly in ;t tiltli>' uml r:'g_'<‘d .fate.
Tho sailors provided them with sheets
in which to wrap themselves while
they 11he ailetsl wash d tne.r
tattered garments. The ship's offi
cers were deeply moved by the de
votion of the men, and listened good
naturedly to obviously manufactured
pretexts put forward by the sailors to
go ashore and look after their
charges
