NO AMERICAN CRIME.

Investigation by the Associated Press quick
ly revealed that reports of an American crime
wave in Paris were morse than exaggerated
When so many of our soldiers are constant
ly passing through Paris it is always to be eX
pected that a few individuals may be guilty OF
disordery conduct OF other offenses. 1t happens
even in New York, and no one thinks OF charg-
ing the United States army with being made up
largely of murderers and other dangerous Grim
inals. Just as there, in Paris the American mlll
tary police are on duty throughout the city and
co operate with the local police authorities. They
are reasonably well informed about what is 60
ing on, and if deserters from the American ar
my were killing and robbing right and left they
,oud not be idle. But neither Brigadier Cen
eral Harts nor NJ Mouton, chief of police, APP
pear to be alarmed. Both testify to the good
conduct generally of the American soldiers. M
Mouton adds the interesting detail that Paris
Apaches have been using the American uniform
in the practice Of their industry
Thus the American crime wave in Paris sud-
denly subsidies and disappears. Probably 1t
would never have been heard of it Parlslans
were not beginning to tire of a steady diet OF

OPEN BRANCH
Immigration
OFFICE HERE:

A branch office of the immigration
service is to be opened at Brawley
soon, r. H. Taylor, of Washington,
d. c., is here now preparing prelimi-
naries. The denartment will have
charge of inspection and issuance of
passports. Who is to be in charge
of the local office or where it is to
be located, have not been decided.
A group of immigration officers
has been inspecting the Brawley dis
trict during the past few days, and
although the inspection is not as yet
complete, ten aliens were discovered,
according to C. S. Seki, of the de-
partment, without passports. The in
spectors are waiting for instructions
from Washington, SAYS Mr.. Seki, be-
fore returning the aliens to Japan.
An alien who remains undiscovered
in this country for three years is
allowed to remain here, he says, but
if caught before that time, aliehs
are obliged to return to the country
from which they came. The most
frequent method of entering this,
country is for the alien to walk over
the border.
Should the alien while in this
country purchase land and deed it to
his child, born in this country, and
then be caught and returned to Jap
an. the land would remain in the
possession of the child
