Murderer Asks That He
Be Not PardOned for Crime

Paris, June 22.-Camille van der
Marden was sentenced to death by
the Assizes of Seine ct Aise some
three weeks ago. He had murdered
an elderly woman to rob her of few
francs. There were no extenuating
circumstances and in sentencing him
the judge said that he was a monster
who did not deserve to live.
Some days ago his attorney asked
him to sign plea for clemency which
would be presented to President Poin-
care, asking that sentence of death
be commuted to life Imprisonment.
Van der Marden refused to put his
name at the bottom of the document,
saying: "The judge said didn't de-
serve to live His lawyer, however,
presented the plea for clemency over
the refusal of his client.
President Poincare received the fol-
lowing letter: please do not pardon
me. don't want to be pardoned. The
judge said / wasn't fit to live" 1t is
signed Van der Marden.
Van der Marden will be executed.

too often the rule that native-born citi-
zens pay little attention to the desires
and needs of the immigrant, and the
consequence is that he frequently be-
comes much disappointed with his ca
reer in America.
To remedy this whole situation is
the aim of the Commissioner of Nat

the. Department of Labor. To show
Americans their responsibility to the
foreign born, and to show immigrants
how they can become not only Ameri-

is the aim of the information service
planned for the various cities.
Posters, moving pictures, the press
in fact every avenue through which
the immigrant can be approached, will
be utilized to reach him. He will be
taught, in his own language and in
English alike, that the United States
wants to help him; that he has only
to make his wants known to be as
sured of aid.
The information Offices will help
migrants in bringing their families to
America, in recovering money of
which they are robbed through fraud
and in other ways assisting to make
life in America pleasant and profit
able. Immigrants will be encouraged
to ask questions whenever they are
in doubt about their course of conduct
or when emergencies arise

Uncle Sam is now going to furnish

Primarily, these bureaus will be for
nephews and nieces by adoption for
they are intended as part of the
great scheme OF Americanization now
being worked out for the aliens living
in America, to. provide first aid for
in any Of the thousand and
one crises of life in strange land.
1t is unfortunately true that feel
ing has prevailed among certain clas-
ses in the past that immigrants exist
solely to be exploited and deceived.
The ignorance Of American customs
so general among those in foreign
quarters, their tendency to trust stran-
gers and the readiness of sharpers to
prey upon them, all combine to make
their lot anything but pleasant until
they have learned through long and
costly experience.
Some of the immigrants have rela-
t!ves in America and probably most
OF them have friends here; large num-
bers are aided by such organizations
as tn eHebrew Sheltering Aid Associa-
ton and others with the same aims
But with all that friends and charity
can do, the immigrant at times has a
hard time in America. and to save him
some of the more painful and expen-
sive experiences the United States
Government is establishing bureaus
throughout the country where the
worst of his troubles can be settled.
