Protests Against
Drafting Mexicans
Into National Army

Washington, Oct. 1.-The Mexican

regular practice Of the exemption
boards, the state department has had
the men released,
In other cases, however, the cases
are complicated because Of the differ

countries. Mexico holds that a man
born abroad of Mexican parentage is
a Mexican unless he voluntarily for
feits his citizenship. The United
States holds that a person born here
