SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30— Orders for all enemy aliens to leave | water-front areas by PFebruary 21] came as another “cross of war” to | | wharf, where activity has been brought to a virtual standstill by Army and Navy restrictioris. Mass movement of thousands of enemy aliens out of vital defense areas is being ordered by the Justice Department on recommendation of the Army and Navy. The first such order, issued last night, forbids German, Japanese; and Italians to remain in waterfront | areas of Los Angeles and San Fran- | cisco after February 24. Several thousand aliens will be affected. Relatively fewer aliens live in 27 other sectors covered in orders being issued today, effective February 15. Other areas are to be designated from time to time. A total of 1100000 Germans, Japanese and Italians are resident in the United States and must apply next month for certificates of identi- fication. They will be required to answer questionnaires designed to show whether they might act; against United States’ interests through inclination or because of family ties. Germans, Japanese and Italians in the eight States of the West-| ern command—California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Montana, Utah, Arizona and Idaho—must ap-| ply for certificates of identification next Monday. Those residing else- | where in the United States must| apply between February 9 and Feb- | ruary 28. | They will receive small booklets, | similar to passports, which will bear their picture, a fingerprint, signa- ture and description. These must | be carried at all times. | The certificates will be distrib-| uted by mail and must be delivered by postal carrier to the alien in person. Roosevelt Asked fo Make ; Defense Areas Dry President Roosevelt has been asked | as commander ih chief of the armed forces to extend the ban on alcoholic liquor applied to Honolulu and vicinity to all areas of war and defense production. The request was made in a resolu- | tion by the National Temperance and Prohibition Council which has concluded sessions at the Methodist Building. | The council, representing 26 lead- | ing church boards and national temperance organizations, com- mended the Government for its promp: action in banning liquor after the Pearl Harbor attack. Declaring that “the American people are willing to make any sac- rifices.” the council asserted. how- ever, that they are “unwilling to recognize alcoholic beverages as es- gentials in winning” the war. The conservation of manhood is vital.” The council also appealed to the Federal Communications Commis- sion and the National Broadcasters’ Association to ban radio advertising | of alcoholic beverages, ccmmended‘ newspapers and magazines that re-| Ject liquor advertising, dechredi social use of liguors a menace to/ national life and opposed the em- | ployment of women where alcoholic | beverages are sold and the sale of such beverages in grocery stores. !

Couple M"ay” Face 1 Philippine Starvation | The heroic exploits of Gen. | Douglas MacArthur’s fighters on the | Batan Peninsula of Luzon have | eerved to obscure the plight of two | Washingtonians and several other Americans on the Philippine island of Culion. It is, however, a critical one Culion is the home of 6.000 lepers and several hundred physicians who are now reported facing starvation since the Japanese invasion has cut off contact with the outside world The Washingtonians are Dr. and Mrs. John Harold Hanks, the former, a professor of bacteriology at George Washington University. They left for the leper colony in July, 1939. Dr. Hanks' task as an associate of the Leonard Wood Memorial Foundation, was to cultivate and study the minute micro-organism which causes leprosy. “Maybe it's another rumor, who knows?" said Nino, as he patted the THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Fishing Colony Views Aliens’ Expulsion as ‘Cross of War’ gleaming white belly of a big crab and pushed it into the boiling water. “Where they want us to go?

It has been his job for more years than he can remember, putting the live crabs into the salted water after it reaches the boiling point, cooking them for 20 minutes, and then selling them to tourists and San Franciscans.
