ALIENS BECOME j. S.
CITIZENS. BUREAU AIDS
100000 Immigrants Have Been
Naturalized Through Train
ing Glasses

WASHINGTON, March 24.-More
than 100000 aliens eligible for
American naturalization already have
been directed to citizenship training
classes established by local school
authorities throughout the United
States in cooperation with the Blu
reau of Naturalization Of the De-
partment of Labor. The classes are
conducted at night, and enable the
aliens not only to obtain free the
educational training necessary for
approval of their citizenship petit
tions, but also to get information
that will lead them to better jobs,
higher pay and improved living con-
ditions.
The Bureau has established a SER
vice through which candidates for
citizenship are invited to attend the
classes provided by local authorities
for their instruction, and their names
and addresses also are forwarded to
the public school officials. The num-
Der of foreign residents, thus
reached, it is said, is necessarily
limited to those who have declared
their intention to become citizens,
since the Labor Department lacks
the names and addresses of those
who have not filed petitions. 1t is
believed, nevertheless, that free in
struction facilities have been made
available to many others through
measures taken by local Americana
cation organizations, Boy Scouts,
Young Mems Christian Associations,
chapters of the Daughters of the
Revolution and other patriotic and
civic societies.
Cards giving the records of the
aliens attending the classes, bureau
officials declare, add to the value of
the work from a public viewpoint in
that they give a basis for complete
community surveys to determine
needs in Americanization work.
The bureau receives almost daily
letters from candidates for citizen
ship and Americanization wmkdrs
praising the service, and also gets a
number of reports on the work of
aliens taking advantage Of the cours-
es. Some Of these reports, it is
said, show the progress made by

VERA CRUZ REDS DEFY
MEXICAN GOVERNMENT
Lenine And PraoI Are Two OF
Most Revered Communist
Stage Nightly Parade

VERA CRUZ, Mexico, March "a.
(By Associated Press)-Premier
Lenine Of Soviet Russia and Heron
Proal, Guatemalan, are the two
protagonists Of bolshevism most
revered in this city, and acknowl-
edged hotbed of radicalism and red
activity in the republic of Mexico.
ProaI is an agitator who is now in
jail here awaiting trial charged with
melting riot and rebellion against
federal forces some six months ago.
He is hailed as a martyr, and from
his prison cell continues to direct
his extremist campaign, which in
cludes open revolt against govern.
ment as a minor proposition.
Radlcalism in its raw state may be
seen here every night when paraders
varying in number from 300 to 5000
march through the streets, singing
revolutionary songs, jeering at spec.
tators on the sidewalk, yelling for
Lenine, Trotsky and Proal, and. in
general defying either city or state
government to halt them, All traf-
fc is stopped and for at least an
nour each night downtown Veracruz
is turned over to the bolshevists.
The nightly parade is a snowy and
spectacular thing. For down the
street the marchers are heard COM
ing, band blaring, voices raised in
song. They round the corner and
one sees an expanse of flaming ban
ners-all OF them solid red and bear
ing legends of adherence to bolshe-
vism and extolling Lenine and
Proal. Men, women and children
Join in carrying the banners and at
regular intervals the music ceases
to permit the captains to lead their
cohorts in loud 'vivas" for things
radical.
BY day, the evidences Of bolshe-
vism are only slightly less marked.
A ride through Vera Cruz discloses
hundreds of houses bedecked with
red flags. The pictures of Lenine
and Proal in red frames and en-
circled flaming banners are often
found above the doors. Many en-
thusiasts have painted the entire
house in red. For the most part
these decorations indicate that the
inmates belong to the Tenants
Union" which several months ago de-
cided that no rents would be paid
in view Of the fact thai the landlords
refused to reduce them to a figure
acceptable to the union. 1t is said
that there are at least 5000 mem
bers of the union here who have
paid no rent for months. The ques-
ton has been checked up to Presi-
dent Obregon who has indicated
that he is not sympathetic with the
tenants

1000 feet long. From its base to

EFFORT TO KILL 53J55
SHIP BILL FAILS
PROPOSAL to Reconlnit Measure
in Senate-Would Have Killed .
Bill for Session

WASHINGTON, March IA pro-
posal to kill the administration ship
ping bill outright through recommit-
tai was rejected today in the SEN
ate.
An agreement was reached Mon
day afternoon to vote on the bill to-
day after another day of debate rang
ing more or less about the measure, it
had begun to appear that the task of
finally killing it has become almost
as difficult as that of passing it.
Much of the debate had as its theme
the flibuster of last week against
the measure and the means of dis
posing of it, now that its friends had
given up the fight in its behalf.
The agreement entered into pro-
vided for vote on the pending mo-
tion by Senator Robinson, Democrat,
Arkansas, to send the ship bill back
to the comerce comittee. The agree
ment was proposed by Senator Jones,
Republican, Washington, who as
chairman of the committee, has had
charge of the legislation. Regardless
Of today's atcion by the Senate in
killing the measure it will not be sub
stituted again by the Administration,
it was said today at the White House.
The Administration, it was said by
the White House spokesman, is re-
solved to do the best thing and every
thing possible without the aid of Con-
gress in assisting private owners to
operate the war-built tonnage and to
establish the American flag on the
principal trade routes. This policy,
which involves liquidation of the
Governments experiment in owner
ship of ocean shipping, it was said,
is being rapidly worked out and Will
be in operation long before Congress
convenes next December. 1t does not
involve abrogation of commercial
treaties under section "a of the Mer-
chant Marine Act of 1920, it was de-
clared. by the spokesman for the
President, who, however, declined to
give any of the details of the plan.
