country and his citizenship. Minotto
claims to be an Italian.
II DR.. Prentiss decides against
Minotto, and is upheld by the COM
missioner of immigration. the count
may be. interned. If they decide he
is an Italian he may be sent to Italy
for military purposes.
The department of labor has out
lined it's case against Minotto in a
statement in which attention is call
ed to his German birth, his connec-
ton with German banking houses,
his association with Germans abroad,
especially in South America, where
he is said to have beome intimate
with Count Won Luxburg, the German
ambassador to Argentina, whose
intrigues recently threatened the neu-
trality Of Sweden.
Minotto, through his attorney, has
made categorical denial Of all the
government charges.
