WIVES AND CHILDREN OF
POLES ARE ON WAY HERE
First Group of $4,000 Families to
Be Brought to Immigrants
by Hebrew Society.

NEW YORK. June IA transport
bringing 500 wives and children of
Polish immigrants in this country is
on the way from Danzig to an Ameri-
can port. according to information re-
cefved here by the Hebrew Shelter
ing and Immigrant Society. This is
the first group of total of $4,000
families to be brought to America to
be reunited with husbands and fathers
from whom they have been separated
by war for more than six years.
The Hebrew society has undertaken
to find the wives and children of Pol
ish immigrants who have been pre-
vented by the war from sending any
aid to their families. many of whom
have been driven out of their homes
in the war zone and have become
lost to their kind in this country.
This is not a project of new immi-
grafton" said John l.. Bernstein, the
societys president. Much harm has
been done by the statement that We
were inducing Jewish people of Po-
land to come over. That is not the
fact. We have absolutely no concern
with any intended immigrants except
the wives and children of men al
ready in this country. more than SO
per cent of whom are now American
citizens. The work is done with the
hearty consent and cooperation of
the bureau of immigration and the
State Department"

PrickIy Porky Gets a Fright.

Old Mother Nature. "At least that is
what people say of him, though i

ENNN Ntf' tF~ -
WASHINGTON. April 5. Maxine

sey, worlds heavyweight boxing cham
plon, Will not be allowed to testify
against Dempsey when his trial come.
W IN San Francisco in two weeks on

Guiding her, which is a privilege &C
corded TO the defendant under the Fed
eral court procedure, she msy be called
to the stand. bat otherwise she VIII not
figure in the trial OF the champion.
1hist information was given put here
to-day by Miss Annette Adams, United
States District Attorney for the north
ern district of Cslifornis. Miss Adams
and will be on hand April II when
Dempsey ard his manager. Jack Kearns,
are arraigned before the Federal court.
There are two counts in the indict-
ment against Dempsey, the first charg-
ing conspiracy with intent to evade the
Federal selective service law. The sec
ond count charges him with the viola
ton of the law itself. Kesrn> will be
tried on a charge of conspiracy.
unless Dempsey valves his right
and is willing for his former wife to
testify. she viii in all probability not
be called to the witness stand by the
government declared Miss Adams.
The case against Dempsey interests
us only in that it is 4 case of the viola
ton of a Federal law. We have other
defendants awaiting trial in San Fran
cisco on similar charges. The case
against the champion viii be handled in
exactly NJ same way that the other.
are tried. His Importance will not be
considered"
Asked if she thought her Office has a
clear case against the champion and
his manager, Miss Adams, who is the
first woman ever appointed United
States Attorney, said she preferred to
wait until the trial before commenting
on this feature. I've think we have a
clear case she replied, "but, of course.
that statement will have to await the
outcome of the trial for verifcation."
The statement of the District Attorney
indicates that all the preparations thai
were made to have Maxine Dempsey
testify at the trial and her avowcd pur-
pose of getting even" with the cham
pion have ONE to naught.
Federal officials here connected with
the Department of Justice said that
under the Federal procedure Maxine
would be barred from giving testimony
as the fact of her divorce would be CON
sidered as lending malice to her state
ments. Under the construction that
local officials put upon the Federal law,
even comments upon Maxine Dempsey's
connection with the case would be
barred.
