Young Serbian, Seeking Admittance Into
United States, Must Wait Another Year
in Mexico to Get An immigration Number

Able to look across the line from
Mexico into the United States, yet un-
able to enter this country for another
year was the disappointing news re-
ceived by young Serbian at the Of
flee of American Vice Consul Charles
Amsden, in Aqua Prieta, Wednesday.
The young man came to Aqua Prieta
two years ago, hoping to enter the
United States at that time, but let
ter from the American consul general
at Belgrade informs Vice-Consul ANS
den that the man cannot be given a
quota nupmber to enter this country
for another year.
Vice-Consul Amsden explains that a
great many persons in foreign coun-
tries come to Mexico, Canada and Cuba,
believing that by so doing they will
escape the immigration quota restric-
tions of their own country, and be able
to enter under the non-quota standard
of the countries adjacent to the Uni
ted States
American consuls in European coun-
tries allot only 10 per cent of their inn.
migration quota to residents, with
the result that this non resident quota
is usually greatly overdrawn. In cases
such as that of the Serbian at Aqua
Prieta, the American CONSUL notifies
the American consul general at the
capital city of the applicants home
country, who in turn, assigns a num-
ber to the applicant. Owing to the
fact that the Serbian quota is already
overdrawn, the young man has no re-
course but to remain in Mexico for
another year.

TO GET
BALLOT DESPITE
THEIR ILLNESS

Douglas voters who are unable to
get to the polls at election time this
year because of illness will not lose
their chance to vote, according to Ser
geant A. b. Murchison, of the Douglas
police department, who has charge of
registration for this city. Announce
,ment of new amendment to the cleo
tion laws, permitting sick voters to
vote at their homes, was made We'd
nesday from the office of II. l.. Hutch
ison, county recorder for Cochise
county.
In the past, persons who were i'll
could not vote, although voters who
were absent could exercise their suf-
frage rights by applying for an alb
sentee's ballot. Under the new ruling,
voters confined to their beds through
illness may vote by applying for an
absentee's ballot, which application to
the county recorder must be accompan-
led by physicians certificate stating
that the voter is too i'll to go to the
polls Such applications must be made
at the county recorders office not
more than 80 days before the general
election.
Applications for absentee voters bal
lots for the primary election of Sep
tember can be made any time UP to the
day of the primaries. Under the new
ruling, it would be possible for dead
mans vote to count, provided it was
made on an absentee voters ballot and
properly filed at election, after the
voter had died. Sergeant Murchison
states that there is unusual interest in
the coming election and that much
heavier registration is expected.
