WASHINGTON. Oct. 26.
Millions of dollars In Herman Bold and
property In Philadelphia and other Penn
sylvania cities are to be tnken over for
tie period tf the war by the United States
iw4 Invested In Liberty Bond The tier
WUV money will be uecd to purchase muni
tions of war to be used agains; Cletmany.
A. Mitchell Palmer, who, as custodian
f alien property, has made plans to em
Hoy this money atcalnst tlerinany. said
today that he does not know the total
amount that cin be selred In Philadelphia
r In the State at large.
When asked whether tlure would not
he millions taken out of iho single city of
Philadelphia, he replied-
That Is a reasonable etlmnle. There
la no doubt that the tlerman property
Which the Government Is luthorlzed to
take will run Into the hundreds of mil
lions uf dollars
"Allhough I have made no effort olilclally
to ascertain the total amount, the offers
ro'.untarlly made to turn over hundreds of
thousands nf dollars show that the total
will be great.
"In runn.iiB ov-r the hundreds of letters
that come In I find that the amounts hlch
It Is proposed to turn oer to me run from
right cents to VJU:000 The concern offer
ing to turn over 9nn 000 was virtually
unknown and therefor i It Is safe to assume
that tho big cumihinles known to be owned
by German Interests wllj have much lamer
sums that can be utilized by tin Jolted

banks of that c.ty, which the Government
will selie. w re dedal ed by Mr. Pnlmr
to be reasonable Of course, the German
money In Philadelphia will be much more
than that and mnny of the German-owned
enterprise th re hae been making big In

For three year' it has been virtually im

them over to th United Htaes. This Is due
to the f ict that they have to pay high rates
of Interest on the German money which
they have been unable to deliver to Its
owners.
Reports from Philadelphia. Pittsburgh
and other Pennsylvania cities Indicate thnt
many citizens of foreign countries with
which the United States Is as war, but who
are living In America, are withdrawing their
savings from United States banks. They
have the erroneous Impression that a I prop
erty owned by aliens 's to he seized.
It Is not the Intention to take the prop
erty of any German. Auttrlan or Turk 'ho
la living In, the United States now. Dnly
the property of citizens ot those countries
who are living nbnind Is to be seized. None
of the proprtv nf fore'gn-born per'ons who
are now residing In the United States will
be conscripted unless the President by proc
lamation should declare all of them to be
enemy alien.
Not only will Gfinan-owned g"!d be
seized In Philadelphia and elsewhere
throughout the United States, but German
roods will be taken. Vnt war supplies Hre
reported In t"-ml"nl warehouses, there
waiting shipment to Ge-roa-iy.
Copper, bms, zinc and other metals

were bought by Geimnny long ago when
it was thought the-e could be carried to the
Teutonic allies, will be seized.
Because sixty days' time Is glen cor
porations, hanks and trust companies to
report the amount of Ce'mnn property they
have on hand It Is not believed likely that
Mr. Palmer can use many millions of Ger
man gold In purchislng bond of the present
Liberty Loan leue It Is considered alto
gether probable, however, that the next lonn
can be floated entirely from the proceeds I
M German) nrnperty conrcrlpted In the
United States.
PALMI-'R OUT-IXKS POLICY
"1 have not made nny attempt to nicer
tain the total amount ol German money
Uiat can be used In this way." said Mr. Pal
mer today, "and 1 have had a chance only
to skim through the hundreds of letters that
have come In voluntarily, but there are
bunderda of offers to turn ovr hundreds of
thousands, of dollars of German property.
"Within a short time I will require from
every corporation In the United States any
Oerman stock holdings nnd the money owed
to any residents ot Germany, German cor
poratlons or those of Germany's allies."
Mr. Palmer Indicated that from aucn
'Cities aa Philadelphia, Ctiveland. Cincin
nati, St. Louis and Milwaukee, where?' there
are big German populations, millions erf d:l
Urs would be derived.

COPS GET USUAL FARCE
ELECTION DAY ORDER
Must Keep Out of Politics on
Pain of "Instant Dismissal,"
Robinson Tells Them
The age-old farce wns lepeated at City
Hall today. Members of the police force
were told they must keep out of politics,
especially on election day. November G.
Superintendent of Police Hoblnson told
the police nbout It. Of couise. he did not
mention the Fifth Ward, or Its history, or
saj a word nbout primary election nay but
ho did say thnt any policeman found guilt
of "butting" Into politics would be ln
(tiintly dismissed icgardlng of position 01
Influence.
In police, political und other circles the
superintendent's order failed to arouse anj
great comment
In the printed Instructions relative to
police duty on election day, the Superinten
dent has had pilnted In bold-face type:
"All members of this bureau are again
cautioned against participating In political
activities of any nature whatsoever, and
any one found gulltv of a violation of this
order or of the State laws relative to par
ticipation In political activities will be im
mediately dismissed from the service Irre
spective of position or Inlluenecc."
Opinion has been expressed ns to whether
or not this warning nnd order will be
obeyed as "explicitly" as others designed to
keep the police from political broils.
Tile order says that at least one patrol
man must be on dut at each polling p. ace
fiom f. a. in until closing time.
