BERLIN, December 4.-The entry of
American-born wives into the German
diplomatic corps is forbidden from now
on, under a ruling Of Imperial Chancellor

matte service that the decision of an Off
cial of the German diplomatic corps serv-
ing abroad to marry a foreigner will here
after be regarded as an expression Of his

September 3, Burrows body, with five
crushed in, was found in a neighbor's $

in reply to Representative Victor Berger.

Mr.. Akin Of New York
Mr. Akin, on learning of his name at
the bottom of the list, said:
II am glad to hear l have one defender
in the House, even though it did come
from the tall end of the list. The last

the suggestion from Uncle Joe that We be
tied together. hung over wire and be
allowed to fight it out like a couple of
Kilkenny cats. l never heard of any de-
tense from my colleague Oscar in regard
to that statement.
IF / had been in the habit of laying
up as close to Jim Mann as Mr.. Berger
does l would perhaps be in sympathy
with some of his socialistic ideas.''
