TUNNEY Tells
Of OPERATION
ON WIFE
Copyright. 1929. by Interna tionaI
News Service)

News Service)
BRIONI, Italy, May 14.-Gene
Tunney retired heavyweight cham.
pion OF the world, made a detailed
and authoritative statement to In.
ternational News Service today con.
cerning the recent operation per-
formed on his wife, the former
Polly der. multi.millionaire
heiress, of Greenwich. Conn.
The statement, the first word
Tunney himself has said regarding
the operation, completely confirms
the International News Service dis
patch from Brioni last Friday,
which revealed the narrow escape
Mrs. Tunney had from death.
Danger Passed
Tunney's statement was made
clan. 1t revealed that all danger
has now passed, and that Mrs.
Tunney Is expected to be able TO
or four days.
Mrs. Tunney first became III
three weeks ago." the former fighter
declared. "At first, the illness ap-
peared to be a mild case Of intes-
final fever resulting from indiges'
ton.
Her condition, however, became
worse.
"Dr. Otto Lenz, resort physician
on the Island of Brioni, who was
Immediately called in to treat Mrs.
Tunney, decided upon a consulta-
ton. He called in Professors Fritz
Meyer and A. w. Mayer, internal
disease specialists of Berlin, who
several days later diagnosed the
case as an abdominal abcess.
A Complete Success
Mrs. Tunney was Immediately re-
moved to a beautiful private villa
on the seashore, where on April
Is, Prof. Mayer performed the op-
Grafton with the assistance OF DR..
Meyer and DIR. Lenz.
1.-The operation was completely
successful. The appendix was not
removed.
MRS. Tunney is now taking light
nourishment and all danger has
passed. She is expected to leave
her bed for a short period probably
within three or four days"
In previous dispatches from
Brioni, International News Service
revealed that the surgeons found
an abcess near the appendix, but
decided not to remove the organ
owing to prevailing circumstances.
The operation was performed on a
kitchen table, as no better facilities
were available.

had received it, left her unpro itected.
 i The new law corrects, too, many cases in which witnesses have had to be brought from long distances to testify for applicants. The old law said that an aliens witnesses from another State could testify by deposition or by affidavit with out appearing in person, whereas a witness from the same State, knowing the applicant for at least a year preceding his application for citizenship, must testify in person. This anomaly resulted in hardship. The new law demands the personal appearance only of those witnesses who have known the applicant for the six months preceding his application and dur ing his residence in the county where he applies. All others may testify by deposition.
 As to Continuous Residence
 Continuous residence, so long a football in naturalization, is at last nailed down. Generally speak ing, an alien may leave this country for visits abroad, up to one year, and yet not be held to interrupt the five-year period con- tinuous residence demanded of him for citizenship. Previous to this, some courts ruled that nine months broke up the continuous

ship papers, formerly costing $4, will now cost $10. Tn other words, for the legally arrived alien citi-
 zenship will cost a total of $2O as contraSted with the $5 fee of
 before. If he cannot prove his
 legal entry, he must pay $20 for
 special certificate of arrival, in
 stead of $5 for the ordinary cer-
 tificate, and that brings the cost
 of his papers from $20 to $35.
 An individual derivative certificate costs $10. If papers are lost, duplicates cost $1O instead of 85 cents to $1.50 under the old law. For family of five to be Inaturalized, provided all of them can prove that they are legally here, the cost will be: Citizenship

ships and electing to remain here, gradually amassed a competence and settled down to become American "burgherS."
 The new law now changes that situation. It specifics that, on and after July 1, any alien who came to this country before June 3, 1921, and who cannot produce satisfactory evidence of arrival, may secure a certificate of regis try from the government by sub stantiating his claim. This cer- tificate will take the place of the certificate of arrival It will cost the alien $20, and will legalize his residence in this country Two wears after he secures his special certificate he may apply for citi- ZenShip.
 Derivative Certificates
 The law clears up also the cases of tens af thousands of derivative citizens of this country. For the first time the wives and children of citizens, who by relationship are citizens themselves, may Ob- tain a citizen certificate issued in their own names-at a cost of $10 Heretofore such a certificate could not be obtained at all, with the results that grievouS difficulties were suffered
 There was the case of foreign born woman who had obtained a divorce from her husband and who could not sail abroad to visit her mother because she could not prove her citizenship. Her sailing would probably have meant her returning as an alien, if at all. Yet she was a bona fide citizen by virtue of the fact that her hus- band whom she had married in 1921, had been naturalized during that same year. His refusal, after divorce proceedings had been in tituted, to acqaint her with the number of his citizen certificate or of the date or place where he

residence, while other courts held that two years were allowable One court permitted an absence of nine years to be accepted in the same term that another court refused to grant citizenship be- cause of the applicants absence of sig months. The alien was never sure; the judges personal attitude, and not the law, deter mined the issue. But now the law is inflexible: let the alien stay away a year or more, and regardless of the reason, he can- not be naturalized until he can again prove continuous residence of five years.
 While the new law overcomes many technicalities that were en- barrassing and discouraging to the alien, it imposes upon him greater cost in obtaining citizen ship. Whereas up to now, first papers have cost $1, they will after July 1, cost $5. Nor can these first papers be obtained un- less they are accompanied by proof of legal entry to this country, and such proof, called certificate of arrival will also cost $5. Second or final citizen

SIS citizenship certificate for three children, $45; total $8O All of this is payable at one time.
 The new law itself contains many important and helpful provisions other than those en- umerated. It represents con- structive bit of regulation that has long been awaited. It leaves room for more adjustments to new conditions, but corrects come of the most grievious faults out of the 1906 law.

ARTIST WINS COURT
SKIRMISH WITH WIFE
She Is Cited to Show Why She
Should Not Surrender Articles
He Says She Seized.

Justice Alfred A. Wheat Of the Dis
trict Supreme Court yesterday cited
Mrs. Winifred Negulesco, 2734 Woodley
place, to show cause why she should
not surrender to her husband, Jean
Negulesco, Rumanian artist, quantity
of paintings, curioS and antiques, said
to be worth $4,000, which she is al
legged to have taken out Of the custody
Of the Security Storage Co. in her hus-
bands absence from Washington. Among
the paintings is said to be a portrait
Of Queen Marie.
Mrs, Negulesco recently sued the
artist for q limited divorce, in which
she charged that shortly after their
marriage, at Nice, France, her husband
developed the traditional artistic tenn
permanent and treated her with great
unkindneSS and extreme cruelty" The
husband today denied the charges in
an answer filed through Attorneys Ford
and Grove.
At the same time the artist filed q
petition for the return of his property,
In which he informs the court that
August 10, last, he and his wife placed
in storage a large quantity of wearing
apparel and personal property while
he made trip through the Western
States to sell his paintings and sketches.
Because of lack of funds, he says, he
could not take the property with him.
Last month, in his absence, his wife
went to the storage company and re-
moved all the property there listed in
his name, he asserts.
Included in the articles, the artist
declares, are two foreign vases, one
said to be 1900 years old.
Negulesco charges his wife is pleas
ure-mad."
