Millionaire John Hussong Declared
an Undesirable Citizen


SAN DIEGO, Cal, January 27.-John
Hussong, a millionaire, and for twenty
years a resident of Lower California, has
been declared an undesirable citizen"
and excluded from the United States. I'M
migration Inspector Henry Weddle re-
ceived official notice from Washington
yesterday that his ruling to that effect
had been sustained.
The ruling was made two weeks ago,
when Hussong came from Ensenada to
see his children, who are in school here.
He contested the ruling.
1t was explained at the Department of
Commerce and Labor today that evidence
had been submitted which showed that
Hussong, who is understood to be nat
uralized citizen of Mexico. was concerned
In running an undesirable resort in Lower
California and Ensenada, and because of
that and the character of his associates
he is not regarded by the department as
a desirable person to enter the United
States.
