SEEK TO CHECK
RUSH FOR
NATURALIZATION

Tnat kureT ns are floekiRg to feder-
al, court to declare their intention of
becoming American. citizens under
the impression that, once they have
paid their dollar and secured their
first papers, they are fully naturaized,
is the Information which has reached
federal Clerks George R.. Clark an
William l.. Rosa. j..
With this information at hand. the
clerks are eXerting every effort to
set matters Alright and to impress on
the Koreans that they must wait at
least two years before filing their
final petitions and that, even then,
their chances for becoming citizens
are seriously slim.
Clark has placed the matter of 'heir
,isIbiiity squarely before the Kore-
ans. He has explained to them that
lis office cannot refuse their declara-
tions of intention, and has told them
plainly that, under the present laws.
they can never become naturalized
citizens for the reason that they are
neither free white persons" nor per
sons of African descent or nativity.
There is no getting away from the
fact that the Koreans are MongoEans
and in the same class with Japanese
and Chinese with regard to naturali-
zation, says Clark But we cannot
IeIuse to accept their declarations OF
Intention
So far as is known there has never
been local ruling affecting the status
of Koreans as to their eligibility for
naturalization. Chinese are barred
from becoming citizens and Former
Judge c. F. Clemens recently ruled
against the entrance of Japanese
aliens.
Federal Judge Horace W. Vaughan
today expressed the opinion that KO-
reans haven't chance in the world
of becoming naturalized citizens. he
points out that the naturalization law
is very plain as to who shall be ad-
mitted. Should Korean file his final
petition. he adds, il would be mat
ter fer the court to decide
One Korean, who filed his declara-
ton of intention this morning, said
he wanted to join the United States
army. AS soon as his declaration was
issued he went cut in search of the
proper authorities, declaring he would
apply for enlistment Other Koreans
want to join the navy. and others the

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Feb. 10
Two thousand cane field laborers went
on strike on this island yesterday, de-
Danding a reduction of hours of work
tc eight day and an increase of pay
to 81 day. 1t is predicted that a
general strike of all cane field labor
ers in Porto Rico will ensue. ...-z
FoIty-eight sugar centralS Of the
island are now making sugar and
sugar men estimate that the weekly
production of sugar is approximately
$4,000 tons, and that this rate of pro-
duction will be continued until June.
II is expected that the total produc-
for the season will be between 500, 900
and 525,000 short tons. liz. ...
Weather conditions since the begin
ming of cane cutting have been very
favorable for both sugar making and
field work, although at present in sew
eral sections of the island there is
very great need of rain.
A general strike of agricultural la
borers is predicted by Santigao In
glesias, president of the free fedora
ton of labor, unless the laborers are
given a minimum wage of 81 a day
and eight hours work. These are the
same demands made last year and the
workers then returned to work only
after increases had been granted.
