Sick World! HP I HeDDner Gazette Times. Hennn er. Cirexmn -n Washington, D. C, Dec. 18. Over night the national capital has chang ed its habits. War is the answer. The streets are speckled with men in un iform and American flags are flut tering in the breeze. Until last week the thousands of army and navy of ficers summoned here to work on national defense, wore civilian clo thes for it was not considered good taste to display uniforms when a na tion was at peace. Now every re serve officer (dozens from Oregon and Washington) are in uniform of the various services. Armed soldiers guard the streets, on either side of the White House, the treasury, the bureau of printing and engraving (it makes the paper money and pos tage stamps), and other buildings are closed to the public. On the top of the commerce department build ing where Jesse H. Jones is secre-. tary, two anti-aircraft guns the only ones in the capital have been mounted and are pointing over the White House a block away. Shiver ing soldiers stand watch over the weapons. Senate off ic 3 building and the two house office buildings are given a blackout every night at 8 o'clock and only one entrance is available to congressmen and senators. The capitol building is guarded by arm ed patrols in capitol plaza. The floodlights have been turned off the capitol dome. There is no light in Lincoln memorial, but the guards are there. All street lights have been turned half down, but the theaters and stores, decorated with Christmas lights, continue to blaze. No one can enter the White House, the treasury, the war department or any other government building with out a pass. All employes are pro vided with identification cards bear ing their picture, but more than these tags are required to break through the cordon of watchers. To enter the senate gallery, visitors must assemble on the second floor, where they are interrogated and dis play " special card issued by the congressman, then, after leaving brief cases, cameras and packages outside, they are led in groups to the gallery. In the corridors of the capitol lurk G-men giving everyone the once over. , At the president's press confer ence and at those of Secretary of State Cordell Hull no reporter who represents a Japanese, German, French or Italian newspaper is per mitted. The Japanese and the others have either been arrested or their identification cards taken up. All others must give assurance that they are not serving papers of the Axis. The president does not chafe and banter with the press since the Pearl Harbor tragedy; he is very serious, speaks slowly and softly, as secret service men stand in the crowd of correspondents and view with sus picion any reporter whose pipe bul ges in his pocket. The president admonished: Do not listen to nor spread rumors. The chief occupation in Washington is doing just that and, right or wrong, the people have a firm belief that they know all the details of the Pearl Harbor affair. A visitor can drop off a plane at 4 o'clock and by 5 o'clock he has heard the rumors and is willing to tell them; always the rumors are the same so many NOT WITH THESE WHISKERS-!'

Arrangements for blackouts have fizzled. Only $10,000 was available for civilian defense until a couple of days ago, when one million was ap propriated. There was no air raid alarm until a 12-year old siren was borrowed from a nearby fire depart ment (volunteer). This refused to work, its mild squeak being drown ed by auto horns when a test was made. There are only three air raid shelters in the district ; two are underground garages in the govern ment buildings; the third an under ground hole where gas tests were made in 1917, and there is a pop ulation of one million. Office of civilian defense, where Fiorella LaGuardia is director and Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt is first as sistant, has been a part time job, with volunteers. Neither LaGuard ia nor Mrs. Roosevelt remains at headquarters; they have other en gagements LaGuardia has to run the affairs of the city of New York. Their numerous aides, part-times, i are society women and debutantes whose principal problem has been trying to decide what kind of a uniform they should wear. There are many social workers in the ranks. The Parent-Teachers asso ciation decided that school children should have identification tags in case they were bombed; Despite the warning of army officers that the safest place in an air raid is indoors, the schools have been practicing fire drills to send the children into the streets when and if an air raid warn ing is given. Among government workers are thousands who are hys terical and in a constant state of jit ters. On "the hill" war is the only talk indulged in by legislators, and members from the Pacific coast are receiving mailbags full of letters asking unanswerable questions. Gov ernment workers no longer have a snap; they must work long hours and bureau chiefs are making their help work overtime and on Sun days, too. STUDENT TOTALS DOWN Oregon State College Final reg istration figures for the fall term here show exactly 400 fewer students enrolled than in the fall term a year ago, the figures being 4359 compar ed with 4759, a drop of 8 per cent. Of the total enrollment, 3880 came from Oregon counties, every one of which was represented by from six to 1112 students each. Twenty-seven other states were represented by 426 students, while 3 more came from two territories and six foreign countries. Fall term examinations ended December 19, with winter term registration scheduled for Monday, January 5.
