LAW WITH TEETH
TO BE ENFORCED
Penalty of Five Years in Jail and
Heavy Fine Faces Many
Who SWOre Falsely.

Wholesale naturalization frauds. the
result Of the enforcement of the labor
law prohibiting the employment OF
aliens on public works have been un-
covered by Chief Inspector c. o..
Cowley, Of the Department Of Com
merce and Labor. Up to the close
yesterday thirty cases had been pre-
scented to Assistant United States
Attorney Edwin NJ. Stanton for Prose
cution, with indications that many
more are to follow.
In no case so far developed are
politicians involved. In each case the
desire 20 work on the subway and not
20 vote was the impelling reason, and
in each case the offence consists Of
persons making false ahidavits in the
state and United States courts as to
the length Of time they have known
the applicant for papers.
The need Of citizenship papers be
came acute in the foreign colonies
when the labor unions forced the sub.
way contractors TO live up TO the law
forbidding the employment OF aliens
on such work. Immediately $4,000
men were affected. Many Of these had
been in the country long enough to
get papers. others had neglected TO
complete operations begun long ago.
As q result there was a rush for
naturalization, particularly when the
amended law permitted those who had
taken out what is commonly known as
first papers," that is to say, indicated
their intention Of becoming citizens,
TO be so employed
This created a demand for witnesses.
The frequency with which certain
names appeared on papers in state and
federal courts caused several men to
be barred as witnesses in additional
cases, though in most instances not
enough could be proved against them
to warrant arrest. The elimination Of
these professional witnesses made it
NECESSARY for others TO be procured.
Partenders and others on the east
eide then became prominent in the
work. For small consideration they
introduced men who would swear TO
having hhCWf tne applicant I'VE years.
These were coached to tell Of meeting
the candidate at a dance or picnic and

The penalty FOR false swearing in
such cases may be five years in the

UNSECURED DEBT TAX
Counsel for Bankers Assn
Criticises Proposed Law.

4 statement issued yesterday By
Robert r. Reed counsel for the Invest
ment Bankers Association, relative to
the proposed annual tax on secured or
funded debt, points out that the as
ISOLATION does not oppose the annual
tax on funded debt, but the arbitrary
selection Of unsecured debts and debts
not secured by New York real estate
as a special object Of taxation, while
the same kind of debt happening to
carry such security remains practically
exempt.
We urge says the associations
counsel that the proposed annual tax
take the form Of compulsory tax
against all funded debt, with d per
missiye provision for the payment Of
such tax I'm advance at discount for
limited number of years. so that the
exemption tax, so-called, will be appor-
toned to the period Of the debt and
that neither a hundred-year bond nor
an indefinitely extended mortgage debt
should be permanently exempted.
