A QUESTION OF CITIZENSHIP.
a Porto Rieap admitted to Practice
in the Supreme Court.


On motion of Solicitor General Richards
Yesterday in the United States Supreme
Court F'redrico Degetau, resident Com
missioner of Porto Rico in the United
States. was admitted to practice Today
attention was called to the fact that un-
der the law no one not a citizen of the
United States can be admitted to prac-
itce before the Supreme Court.
The law of Congress under which the
Commissioner of Porto Rico holds his Of
fee specifically states that the Commis-
sioner must be 4 native of Porto Rico.
The action OF The Supreme Court yester-
day virtually afdrms the decision of Mr..
Proctor. President of the Civil Service
Commission. who recently ruled that
Porto Rfcans were citizens of the United
States. and were, therefore. eligible TO
take the examination for admission into
the Government service. Under the rules
of the Commission. as approved by the
President, no one not a citizen of the
United States Is eligible to take the civil
service examination.
Only a few years ago a prominent Ca
madam lawyer sought admission to prac-
tice before the Supreme Court but he was
denied the privilege on the ground that
he was not a citizen OF the United States
