BECOMES CITIZEN
OF UNITED STATES
Or. Aked Renounces Ale
glance TO King George.
TELLS why He TOOK STEP
Declares in Statement That He Had
Been Born Into World With Ha-
tired of Monarchy and Every
thing That Goes With 1t.

SanFrancisco, Cal.-Dr. Charles F.
Aked, pastor of the First Congre-
gational church, has renounced his al
legiance to King George of England
and the monarchial form of govern
ment and became full-hedged citizen
of the United States.
DR.. Aked was granted his final citi-
zenship papers by Judge Van Nos
trand, following an examination in
which he showed himself to be ex-
tremely well versed in national, state
and municipal laws. Following the
court action, DR.. Aked issued state
ment in which he declared that he
had always been republican; had
been born with hatred of monarchy
and to have been classed as Sub
ject" of any king had been extremely
unpleasant to him from his earliest
childhood.
Always Hated Monarchy.
DR.. Aked says that he came to
America and became a citizen of this
country because the word American
means liberty. Dr. Aked says it
would give him great pleasure 10 be
able to administer good kick to that
class of cheap cynic," who is inclined
TO sneer at the statue of liberty from
incoming vessels and he would not
care to be found dead in a ditch be-
side such people. DR.. Aked in his
statement says:
1T is easy for me to- state the first
and most imperious reason for desir-
ing to become an American citizen.
Yet | have very little belief that /
can make it as clear to any living
human being as it is to me. / am
sure that my friends in England could
never understand it.
Says America Means Liberty.
Briefly, it is this: am and al.
ways have been a republican. / seem
to have been born into the world with
hatred of monarchy and everything
that goes with it-a republican born
on the wrong side of the water. All
the homage paid to kings and queens
all the trappings of courst, the very
language employed, have been from
the earliest boyhood that l can remem
ber intolerable to me. The fact that
one is subject of King George or
King Edward or King Anybody else
is unpleasant to me- And king wor
ship in all countries and all ages dis
gusts me.
81 think l have it in my soul to be
a hero-worshipper. l am satisfied
that if man worship not his hero
whom he has seen, he cannot wor
ship God, whom he has not seen. II
is not because / cannot bow down in
spirit and glory in rendering homage
to better man than myself that
hate the flunkeyism of kings anG
| courts as | do. 1t is because this
homsSe is paid to person not fol
his personality, but because of hi:
position and that position attained by
the mere accident of birth.
Il love America because America
means liberty"

URGE AMENDMENT
TO CON NST|TUT|ON
Senators Favor Giving Wo-
men Right to Vote.
Recommend to Upper Branch of Con-
gress Passage of Chamberlain
Resolution Granting Ballot
to the Fair Sex.

Washington, ID. C.-The senate
recommended to the senate passage
of the Chamberlain resolution for en-
actment of n constitutional amend
ment, granting the ballot to women.
Senator Ashurst of Arizona presented
the report.
A vigorous appeal for votes for
women was made in the report of the
committee, as written by Senator
Ashurst The majority declared eX-
tension of the franchise to women is
justified by every test which stu
dents of government set down for the
enfranchisement of any class of citi-
zens.
These tests, the committee holds,
are: Their willingness to vote: will
ingness to study questions voted upon
and the character and fitness of can
didates; the likelihood that they will
vote against dishonest persons and
dishonest measures; will refuse to be
bribed directly or indirectly; that they
will place country above party; will
recognize the result of elections as
the will of the people and therefore
the law; will continue to fight for a
righteous although defeated cause so
long as there is reasonable hope of
success; that women are able to write
and read and are taxpayers.
I'VE do not feel called up to dis
cuss-even if debatable-the question
as to equality of the two sexes from
an intellectual standpoint" the COM
mittee declared.
