Police Arrest 1O1 as
Registration Slackers
All-Day Hunt Lands Netful
of Foreign-Born
Strikers

Policemen of the Elizabeth, Clinton,
Mercer and Fifth streets stations put
in a busy Sunday hunting men who
had failed to register for military ser
vice. They covered the territory be-
tween City Hall Park and Fourteenth
Street and caught l01 men. They will
be arraigned to-ray before a United
States Commissioner.
Most of the prisoners were foreign
born. The raid began before dawn and
lasted far into the evening. Seventy
two men were taken to the Fifth Street
station, overcrowding it to such an
extent that several had to be sent
elsewhere.
The government pays a reward OF
$50 for every draft shirker captured.
When the police are the captors half
of the reward goes to the pension fund
of the department. The prisoners
themselves earn the money to pay the
rewards by enforced labor.

ing, as Czarnecki's counsel was, but
that hardly changes the fact that under
the 5Sth article of war absence with
out leave, coupled with intention, spells
desertiOn and death.
The president of the court may be
fair and reasonable in his rulings, as
Major Campion was, but that doesn't
alter the fact that he is first of all
soldier to whom military discipline
is prime law.
Czarnecki knew that he might be
shot as the result of the deliberations
of that June afternoon. That was
enough to make any man look far away
at the blue sky of Mineola, beyond the
guardhouse and the barracks.
Hadn't Told His Wife
Only once did the sallow face or the
sober blue eyes show any change.
When his frightened young wife was
called into court as witness, Gar
necki's face grew white. When in an
swer to a question as to the reason
for his continued absence from camp
she said simply: Gle said he hated to
leave me-" he looked up at her for the
first time.

seen him during the honeymoon stated
that he had boasted that he was

the members of her family all swore
that his intention to return to camr

Two Billions Due
This Week From
Federal Taxpayers

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The biggest
tory of the nation will occur this week.
More than two billion dollars in in
come and excess profits taxes from in
dividuals and corporations is due next
Saturday night in addition to the
half billion which already has been
paid in this year. Total receipts from
these sources are expected to be about
32,775, 100000.
More than 100000 separate pay
ments of income taxes are to be made
and in addition hundreds of thousands
of excess profits tax payments. Ap-
proximately three-fourths of the total
about one-fourth from individuals.
Millions Of persons will pay income
taxes for the first time.
AS an indication of the huge task i'm
posed on the internal revenue machin-
cry Of the government, with its sixty
four collection districts, it is recalled
that last year only 100000 income tax
payments were made under a former
law and $S09,000,000 was received on
incomes.
Many corporations and big business
interests face the necessity Of selling
securities or other assets to meet tax
payments this week, according to re-
ports to the Treasury, and officials are
watching carefully the effect on the
money and security markets.
A method of instalment payments in
advance was arranged under the law,
hut comparatively few corporations
took advantage of it. Under another
plan, however. the Treasury in the
lasc six months has sold a great
amount of certificates of indcbt-
edness acceptable in payment OF
taxes. and these virtually amount to
advance payments. The certificates are
not redeemable until June 25, but the
Treasury has urged corporations and
banks to turn them in this week tc
avoid disturbing the distribution o1

Minors i'm Service
To Start Move for
Full Citizenship
Boys at Camp Dix Want
Honor Before Going
Abroad

CAMP DIX, N. j., June 9.-American
boys under twenty-one years of age
who have volunteered for service in
special military units training at Camp
Dix hope for the satisfaction of going
to Europe as full fiedged citizens Of
sional ruling permitted aliens serving
with the Stars and Stripes to win i'm
mediate citizenship, without regard to
the time they have been residents of
America, has apparently been largely
responsible for starting the agitation
for the conferring of full citizenship
upon American-born soldiers who are
minors.
There are, of course. no minors in
the National Army, but there nave been
many and will be many more in spe-
cial organizations made up of volun-
teers who will train here. There are
also thousands in other camps.
Instead of making an appeal to Con-
gress, which would involve much red
tape, as their petitions would have to
go through the regular military chan
nels, minors here are asking relatives
and friends in civilian life to bring
this issue to the attention of their Rep
resentatives and United States Sem
ators. In this way they hope to get
action on the subject before Congress
adjourns.
A score of nationalities are repre-
sented among the 1000 aliens who have
been granted their final papers as
American citizens here during the last
fortnight. The pride with which these
soldiers regard their new honor was
shown to-day when, in score of in
stances newly naturalized men held
family parties in the barracks in cele
bration Of their new won citizenship

kindergarten at the Bethlehem House

them by Mr.. H. Boland, the father

most pleasure and happiness, the
donor of the treat or the children
who made up the company o. pic
nickers.
The wagon to carry them to the
park was crowded with the young
sters and their chaperones, and the
large lunch box and ice cream freezer
were tucked carefully under the seat.
From ten in the morning until late
IN the afternoon, the children played
games and frolicke1>to their hearts
content, and the supply Of good things
to eat seemed unlimited. Fifteen
