IS Persons Take
Oath Of Citizenship
On Election Day
Bitterness Of Campaign
Ends After Votes Are
Cost, Wheat Says

The voteleSS District of Columbia
today saw As new citizens admitted
to American citizenship on election
day.
Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat of
District Court told them that
after the election, the people settle
down to their ordinary walks of life
and become whole-hearted Ameri-
cans. giving their true faith and
allegiance to the Government of the
United States"
Among the new citizens were II
British. 10 Italians, seven Germans
and six Russians To these, Chief
Justice Wheat said: Let us hope
that we will not be drawn into war,
but if we are, know that after you
have taken the oath which you take
today you will become loyal support
ers of our country"
Seventeen women, who had mar
ried foreigners and thus lost their
American citizenship were repatri-
ated, as was one man who had served
in the Canadian Army during the
World War.
Observing that today is election
day Throughout the United States,
although in the District of Colum-
bia we have no election" Chief
Justice Wheat said:
MY memory goes back many
years and it has been my observa-
ton that almost always at the end
of hotly contested political cam
paign there has developed a certain
amount of bitterness of feeling. But
1t has also been my observation that
whatever bitterness may have de-
veloped during the campaign, it is
over as soon as the election returns
have been counted"
The Chief Justice asserted that
there is no room in this country
for any one who thinks that his
obligation is confined to observance
of the laws of which he approves
and that he is. free to disregard
those of which he does not approve.

$1,000 soldiers. Maj Birdseye de-
clared that 60 types of buildings

structed for each of the 18 National

tenn of national defense" Maj. Birds

Il can say unhesitatingly that
adequacy in the preparation of ma
tional defense is the keynote sound
ed throughout the Army in this
hour of emergency. This principle
applies particularly to housing Sc
lective service inductees."

tion for labor and the colored race;
that unions be able to designate
