what the charge SnOulQ De, ana Govern
ment learns that Members think that the
rate is high. 1t was proposed by some
one who has a good knowledge: how
ever if Members care to amend the ordi-
nance they are at liberty to do so.
End Member for Christiansted Town
(C0negata) would like to know whether
the amount stated in the ordinance will
be III addition to the present charge?
Government Secretary (T5mmons) an
swered: To take the place of it.
End Member for Christiansted Town
(CdMegatG) remarked: Mr.. Chairman.
This would make the charges pretty
high for the people of C~hristiansted.
propose that Frederiksted have the same
charge existing in Christiansted.
Government Secretary (1GnmOMs) re.
marked: Mr.. Chairman. 1t is the
understanding of Government in fixing
this rate it would expedite the removal
of goods in storage. | have no know
ledge of the proper charge, if the charge
is too low it would not facilitate the re-
moval of goods in the warehouses.
LIST Member for Christiansted Town
(AbrGmson) remarked: Mr.. Chairman.
| for one would like to know where is
the warehouse in Frederiksted? For
over twenty or thirty years past the
AIuS S Wnar1 III HE6uSTlkSL0Q is uSoO as
a warehouse. 1t would be a good thing
ii Government would erect a proper
warehouse in Frederiksted. | I'M here
to represent tho people and it is my duty
to draw attention to such matters. The
warehouse at this end is fairly good, but
could be made larger; if the Government
would build proper warehouses a proper
charge could be made for goods remain
ing there. 1t is unfortunate that this
matter is brought up on the eve of His
Excellency's departure, or else he would
have looked in to the matter and he
would see that there is great need for a
warehouse in Frederiksted.
LIST Member for Ch~ristiansted Town
(CouIter): 10 | understand that the
Honorable Secretary to the Council has
proposed an amendment to the ordi-
nance?
End Member for Christiansted Town
(CGmegata): Yes, | have proposed an
amendment, and if | am permitted | can
write it out right here.
The Chairman remarked: The amend
ment can be brought in at End Discus

To HEAR ALIENS {
ON APRIL 18TH
700 German and Austrian
Subjects of This County to
Go Before Judge Daily.

NEWARK, March 24.-Seven
hundred German and Austrian sub
jects Of Middlesex county during the
week of April rs, will have an op-
portunity to appear before County
Judge Peter F. DAILY at New Bruns-
wick TO complete their applications
for citizenship, according to an an
nouncement made today by Naturali-
zation Examiner Timmes. who stat
ed that his chief, Mr.. Gordon. was
in conference yesterday with Judge
DAILY and arranged for the week 10
be set aside for this purpose.
Although a large number OF the
applicants will be admitted to citi-
zenship, 1t is certain that number
will not be allowed to become cit:-
zens of the country because OF ths
interest they showed in the enemy
countries during the war. These ap-
plicants which will not be allowed to
become citizens will be those who
were looked up during the war by
the secret service and reports turned
into WASHINGTON. These reports viii
stand against them.
1t is estimated that there are about
$500 German and Austrian aliens
in New Jersey, some of whom have
been in the country for the past thir-
ty or forty years without taking out
citizenship papers.
The proclamation reclassifying al.
lens so that they may become citi-
zens was signed by former Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson on March 3.
