 The court made it's decision jr denying Paul HockWell's suit to set possession of a house he bought six had expired, refused to vacatc, as- Sertinc that Frenchman could not be busted by a foreigner.
 Rockwell and his famous brother. I[iffen Rockwell who was killed in wartime when serving with the Lafayette Escadrillc. were in the first group of Americans volunteer inS to fight for France in the For cign Legion. Paul Rockwell also served as a bomber in the t'rcncG campaign against the Riffs.
 This was the fourth time the suit had been tried in six years, Rock well losing each time, but renewing his plea that Americans were guaranteed equal treatment with tn" French under the Franco American convention of 1855
 His latest suit, the first brought by an American before the newly instituted rent court, was filed after Premier Briand last July had issued q circular contending that the courts should recognize that and similar treaties with other coun- tries.
