PLEA TO EM DRAFT MAY BAR ALIENAS CITIZEN Interesting Case Up for Decision at Frisco —May Go to High Court, By A. H. FREDERICK NEA Service Writer. SAX FRANCISCO, June 4 —Shall an alien’s claim for exemption from military service, back in war days, forever bar him from American citizenship? The San Francisco Federal district court of appeals is trying to decide the question now. But the final an- ~ swer, no doubt, will have to come from the United States Supreme Court. For three naturalization cases, on appeal here, are furnishing the tests which will determine the policy to be followed in the future by 2,500 different citizenship courts throughout the country. Most far-reaching of the three is the case of Lasse Siem, a Norwegian subject, admitted to citieznship by Federal Judge Bourquin of Butte, Mont. Held Highest Duty In this instance, the court held that a “neutral alien’’ performed his highest duty both to his native country and to the United States by remaining neutral. “A declarant not given citizenship protection by this country, nor yet an ex-subject of his native country,” said Judge Bourquin, “is answerable to the latter for his conduct. “He consistently can remain neutral when his country remains neutral.” Government counsel took an appeal. And the American Legion, actively interested in all three cases, assailed Judge Bourquin’s ruling. The other actions came up before Superior Judge Mogan here. Judge Mogan specifically declares he does not agree ,with the Bourquin decision. He holds, however, the exemption to explanation by oral testimony. The first of the cases he considered was that of a German, Jaul G. Lucas. “I did not a.gree with the Government that Lucas could not show his qualifications for becoming a citizen,” comments the San Francisco jurist. “The selective service act provided enemy aliens must be exempted and placed in class 5-E. And Lucas' ques‘*tionnaire proves this was done. Should Not Be Penalized
“But I do not believe it was intended that a man, thus obeying the law, later should be penalized for j so doing. “I allowed evidence of Lucas’ good j faith, of his attempt to enlist in the medical corps, of his purchase of worth of Liberty Bonds and similar evidence which convinced me of his right to citizenship.” The case of Giacomo Buschiazzo, an Italian, involved a similar qucs-3 tion of whether oral testimony could be introduced after the questionnaire had shown exemption had been claimed. “The evidence convinced me Buschiazzo had not understood what he was doing when he claimed exemption, and that he would make a good citizen. So I decided he should be permitted to become one.” “We are trying what is in a man’s heart,” says Alvin Gerlack, chairman of the legion committee watching the conduct of the cases. And M. R. Bevington, naturalization examiner, who is conducting them for the Government, contends an “alien should not be allowed to impeach his questionnaire now that the war is over.” Long Trip Conductor —I’ve been on this train seven years.

‘JAZZ’ORCHESTRA LEADER RESENTS FRENCH ATTITUDE Ban, Reported in Force, Insult to America, Vincent Lopez Says. hy Times Special NEW YORK, June 4.—Vincent Lo pez, the “jazz” orchestra leader, said today that, if cable dispatches were correct in saying that American musicians were being forced to leave France merely because they played “jazz” music, it was an insult to the United States. "If this is official action by the Erench government, it Is a slap at America,” said Mr. Lopez. "It seems hardly possible that such could be the case. It might be possible that certain American musicians have been asked to leave because of objectionable conduct.
Popular Abroad “The popularity of 'jazz' music abroad is great, and it is winning appreciation, not as freak stuff, but as true American music. It certainly can’t be stopped by attacking individual musicians.” Mr. Lopez asserted that the recent development of “jazz” music entitled it to be considered a serioius form of art, jiot a matter to be dealt with by the gendarmes. “I have been for a long time making a study both of the word ‘jazz’ and of the kind of music which it represents,” he said. How \Je Got the Word "Jazz” “The origin of the colloquial word jazz is shrouded in mystery. story of its beginning that is most frequently told and most generally believed among musicians has to do with a corruption of the name ‘Charles.’ In Vicksburg, Miss., during the period when rag-time was at the height of its popularity and ‘blues’ were gaining favor, there was a colored drummer of rather unique ability named ‘Charles Washington.’ As is a very common custom in certain parts of the South he was called ‘Craz.’ ‘Chaz.’ “ ‘Jazz,” I believe, developed from that and was applied to the type of music ‘Chaz’ was noted for.” TWO HELD IN THEFTS Detectives Charge Entering Loan Office and Tool House. Marr Williams, 36, colored, of 548 Minerva St., is held on charge of entering the Kentucky Loan office, 3t,4 Indiana Ave., May 24 and taking revolvers, clothing, jewelry and other articles. Haskell Cook, 24, Mooresville, Ind., is said by detectives to have entered a tool house at Fifty-Fourth St., and Broadway, May 30 and to have taken tools belonging to Clinton Lewis, Atlanta, Ind., valued at SIOO.

Material needed: Two pieces, 2 inches by 12 inches by S feet. Two pieces, 2 inches by 12 inches by 4 feet. Two pieces, 2 inches by 10 inches by 4 feet. One pound No. 16 common nails. (Approximate cost, $3.10.) One load (one yard) clean sand. (Approximate cost, $3.) The shelf provides a seat as well as a “counter” on which to turn out molds and from which to “sell” cakes, pies, etc. A dozen blocks the size of bricks <8 inches long), cut from a 2 by 4inch board, are a valuable addition, being useful for walls and roofs of , buildings, fences, bridges, etc. Small garden tools or a large spoon should be a part of the equipment. Dampen the sand occasionally and keep out bottles or other articles of glass. In choosing the location for the sand box, seek for any natural shade. Too, a canvas canopy can be built over the box at a small additional expense. An old Army "pup” tent is just the right size for a shelter of this kind.

JUDGE REFUSES PIANIST DIVORCE Short Courtship Reason for Denial. Because Earle Transue, 34. a choir singer, insisted on telling stories which embarrassed her, Mrs. Frances Transue, pianist, 22, of 2154 N Delaware St., told Superior Judge Sidney S. Miller she paired a divorce. Also because he has departed for parts unknown in Pennsylvania. "How long had you known Transue when you were married?” asked Judge Miller. “A month and a half,” she replied. “I didn't think it necessary to get recommendations because I met him in church, where I was playing.” “Well, I don’t see much ground for divorce here,” said the judge. “Your honor, ho let her go hungry at times, and made her suffer mentally,” suggested Attorney Herschell Moats. “Any one who will get married on such short notice might expect to suffer,” replied Judge Miller. “Divorce denied.” CEMETERY STORY TO BEWRITTEN Improvements Are Planned for Crown Hill.

tions pertaining to radio, asked by radio enthusiasts In every State In the Union, Hawaii, the Virgin Islands, Cuba. Porto Rico, Mexico, Canada, England, Spain. Czecho-Slo-vakia and Germany. All combined, the multitude of questions blend into one. 'What is radio?' “Keeping in mind what all of these people want to learn, I wrote this book as the answer to the universal question. It is intended to add to your pleasure of listening in.” One of the most valuable features of this book is the “Radio Dictionary,” which defines the various technical terms that one humps into when he becomes a radio fan. Questions Answered Dunlap talks to the reader and makes it possible for him to better understand the radio as a machine and as a scientific invention as well aR an instrument of entertainment.
Among the many questions answered include: ‘.‘How vacuum tubes operate?;” “Which way to point the antenna?;” “How to Install a set?;” “What type of coils to use?;” "How to locate trouble in your set?” and many others. This book of nearly 260 pages brings one a little closer to the mysteries of the radio. As far as my experience extends in this line dterature, Dunlap’s manual api- ears to be the leader In this line of inquiry. Was Interested in the chapter dealing with “How Words Enter the Ether.” That has always been a mystery to me and Dunlap has helped me to get better acquainted with the process. *‘T(j the surprise of many, the microphone treats all sound alike,” Dunlap states. “It reproduces with entire fidelity all sounds from the cry of a baby to the feeble voice of an old man. The individual characteristics are always preserved, even more so than over the ordinary telephone. Just the tick of a watch, a sigh, a cough, or deep breath, before a microphone in New York, is sufficient to set the ether in vibration across the continent.” It seems to me that this manual is complete, written in language that all may understand and, above all, is authentic. Just the book for radio fans. A normal world cotton crop is 22,000,000 bales.
