NEWARK, N. J., May 13.-Thirty- five years after Frederick W. Wurster- barth, German born, obtained Ameri- can citizenship papers, they were can celled today by the federal court here. Wursterbarth. who, according to wit nesses, had refused to buy Liberty bonds, or contribute to the Red Cross or Knights of Columbus funds, was recently removed as postmaster at Lakeview, where he lives, because Of alleged pro-German sympathies.
 Tt seems" United States Judge Haight said today, that the conclusion is irresistible that, at the time he took the oath of renunciation, he did so with a mental reservation as to the country of his birth and retained to- ward that country an allegiance which the laws of this country required him to renounce."
 Judge Haight pointed out that the defendant had failed to deny in court the charges made against him or to explain any of the utterances attribu- ted to him by witnesses.

[RepubIiean A. P, Leased Wire1

SANTA FE, N. M,. May 13--Follow- ing three hours of argument, Judge Colin D. Nehlett in the federal court here today sustained three counts of the demurrer filed in behalf of former Major John F. Birkner of Lincoln, Neb., and ordered that the defendant go to trial early tomorrow morning on the fourth count, which charges that he made false statements tending to in- terfere with the operations and suc- cess of the military and naval forces of the United States. The argument
 entered about the necessity of the indictment including the work ''wii- fully" the defense arguing that with this word omitted the indictment would not hold. The government s representatives contended that the word "feloniously" was sufficient.
 Birkner was arrested at Camp Cody, N. M, some weeks ago for alleged se- ditious utterances. He was in the medical corps with the Nebraska troops.

TULSA, Okla, May 13. - ". E. Nichols, a practicing physician, and C. A. Marshall, dentist, both of Tulsa are under arrest here charged with furnishing drafted men with a drug that affected the eyes and created symptoms of tuberculosis that caused rejection of the patient when exam ined for military service.
 Both men are held on bonds of s10,000. Federal officials say they have evidence that satisfies them that the two men have extended their opera tions to all parts of the country. The charge for their service is said to have been from S75 to s100.
 Marshall is said to be pro German in his tendencies. A letter from Count von Bernstorff. the former German ambassador. thanking him for "his services" was found in his papers.

tating officials here which the Ottawa report served to bring to light. For one thing, American army officers for the most part are convinced that the American army will never reach it's highest efficiency under either the French of British army systems. The relations between the officers and men in each army are things peculiar to each army, They cannot be trans- posed from one to the other.
 In the opinion of many officers here, the time is fast approaching when American officers from the other side should be relied upon for the training of the American army, rather than veterans of trench warfare from the French and British service. Men who are most insistent on this point of view believe trench warfare has pro- duced nothing which justifies the abandonment of all other theories oi military operations for high specializa- ton in trench actions.
 More Than Man-Power
 If America is to contribute largely to the ultimate defeat of the German army, they hold she must contribute something more than man power; she must contribute to the working out ot new theory of operations which will bring victory as trench warfare has not done. For that reason they feel it would be a mistake to lose the dash and initiative of the American army in overwhelming for trench action.

Tucson, Ariz, Nay 22.-From va

skilled workers for the mining in

TO be present in sufficient numbers,
but experts, such as timber men and

now. The situation is being made
worse By the present call Of the gov
erument for expert machinists and
miners, needed for the work in
France. There Is a strong hope in
this and other copper districts along
the Southern Pacific in Arizona that
the government price for copper VIII
be advanced in June. Costs have
mounted so lately that the present
rate Of 231a cents is unremunerative,
except for select ores. Thus il hap
pens that a very much larger quanti'
ty Of copper could be secured If the
price per pound for the metal were
advanced In only . few places In
southwestern Arizona are the copper
deposits other than low grade. Many
mines would be made" and owners
would secure satisfactory returns for
