RESISTANCE FROM AMERICANS
BOYS SHOWN SPECIAL
ATTENTION At WILTON

Among the visitors to Wilton's big
Red Cross Auction sale and patriotic
demonstration Wednesday, were Lieu
tenant Hugh H. McCulloch of Camp
Sheridan, Illinois, and Seaman Roy
Indseth, who is on submarine chaser
ard has seen eight months service on
the other side. Both are Washburn
boys, the former being the son of the
Hon. James T. McCulloch, one of the
leading, attorneys of the Missouri
Slope. Lieutenant McCulloch received
his commission at Fort Smelling and
is now military instructor at the
Illinois camp. Seaman Indseth was
among the first of the Mclean county
boys. to enlist in the navy after war
was declared, and for eight months
has seen active service on the other
side, being stationed in the U-boat
zone on the other side. His boat has
the credit of sinking several submar-
ines and he is on a short furlough
with his family in Washburn. Both
young men made short talks at the
Grand theatre in the evening before
large crowd. Both addresses were
interesting and instructive and were
we'll received.-Wilton News.

ENEMY ALIENS MAY
BECOME U. S. CITIZENS
Judge Calls Attention I'd Specia
Provisions of New A.,

District Judge w. L. Nuessle. calls
attention to the fact that under re-
cent act of congress now in effect en-
envy aliens who declared their inten-
tion of becoming citizens not less than
two and not more than seven years
ago, or who were at that time entitled
to become citizen without declaring
intention, may proceed with their nat
uralization, provided ninety-days no.
tice is, given the commissioner or deps
uty commissioner Of Naturalization
and. providing further that the latter
does not file an objection. The new
act specifically provides that none of
its clauses shall be construed to in
terfere with or prevent the apprehen-
sion and removal, by law, of any alien
enemy at any time previous to the
actual naturalization Of such alien.
The new act does permit enemy aliens
who had declared their intentions and
who have given promise of becoming
good citizens to embrace the stars and
stripes as their flag. Formerly no sub
ject Of country with whom America
was at war could become a United
States citizen.

There are also lots Of "dears" here
