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

battleships, so many cruisers, so
many airplanes destroyed, and this
has the effect of making people pull
in their belts and be more determ
ined than ever to knock the little
brown sons of heaven off the map.
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.
