Roche Feels 1t Is
His Duty to Resign
u. S. Citizenship
Declares Relatives Across
Seas Have Urged Him to
Assume Obligations Put
on Him by Fathers Death

Edmund Maurice Burke Roche, of 90
West Fifty-third Street. yesterday
termed his decision to surrender Amer
lean citizenship for the sake of the
British title of fourth Baron Fermoy as
'the acceptance of an obligation"
Mr.. Roche said that he had been
urged to this action by relatives, and
probably would go to ireland within
two months to prove his claim to the
title and to the possession of large
holdings in Wales and in County Cork,
Ireland.
"My cousins have been telling me
that as head Of their clan ought to
assume responsibilities of the place"
Mr.. Roche said yesterday: II think that
ireland, probably returning to the
United States for the winter months. |
do not expect TO go to the House of
Lords as an Irish peer, at least not
until am considerably older and have
made study of British politics.
"Of course, if Ireland ever should be
separated entirely from England, it
might jeopardi2e my position, but that
is not to be thought of, because Ireland
undoubtedly will have some sort Of
home rule and will be reconcled to
England, like the South after the Civil
War.
NATURALLY, I am fond Of America
and have tried to be good citizen, but
in going abroad it is my hope to be an
instrument in binding together the two
nations. believe that more and more
Americans will go to England and more
Of the English will come here. The
ties between the great English-speak-
ing peoples will not be broken"
Thirteen months in France as an in
fantry captain in the 18th Division, his
record in the war, should be proof
enough, Mr.. Roche felt, that he is leav-
ing the United States only because he
feels it to be his duty.
His twin brother, Francis Burke
Roche, was in the British Grand Fleet
in the North Sea,

drug situation, after breaking through
the crust" said Dr. Simon. ''rhe men
ace of narcotic drugs is growing all

steady since the ban WAS placed on

portions that will menace society"
Seven of the twenty-one men ar
rested yesterday were taken in q ra d
upon a house IN Mulberry Street within
