who were refused the coveted
citizenship certificate, Judge
Spier reserved friendly talk
before the bench, so that disap-
pointment turned to hope.
Persons who were privileged to
watch the proceedings expert
enced the thrill of seeing a Rus
sian farmer, an English laborer.
a German housewife, turn de-
jectedly from the trial examin-
er, and after listening to coun-
sci from the bench, walk from
the courtroom with heads high,
confident that the doors to citi-
zenship would remain open.
EASY CHANGE
The thought came to many
how easy it would have been to
turn potentially good citizens in
to extreme critics. And in times
such as America is experiencing
today, only few of this type
could do great harm.
Judge Spier, however, was
successful in stimulating the
internal warmth" of which
Marshall spoke, so that the ira
ditional belief in America as
the home for all peoples remain
ed unsullied.

Senator Taft Says
Refusal to Guarantee
Safety Of Vlodivostok
Blocked Deal, He Asserts
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio
asserted today he had information
that President Roosevelt had re-
jected definite rapprochement pro-
posal by Japan because the japanese
refused to promise not to attack
Vladivostok, Russia's vital Pacific
port.
The Ohioan, persistent opponent
of administration foreign policy, re-
fused to tell newspapermen the
source of his information, but said
he believed it to be reliable &C
count of the outcome of recent con-
versations between japanese and
United States officials on differences
between the two nations.
Senator Taft explained it was his
understanding" that Japan had Of
fered to quit China, except for five
principal cities where garrisons
would be maintained.
However, he said, Japan baked at
guaranteeing Vladivostok immunity
from future attack, because she
feared that japanese cities might be
bombed by aircraft operating from
bases in the vicinity of the Soviet
port.
Churchill Statement Assailed.
As Senator Taft registered pes
simism about chances for a speedy
settlement with Japan, other opposi-
ton stalwarts accused Winston
Churchill of seeking to prod the
United States into war with the Jap
anese.
They cited the British Prime Min
ister's language in commenting yes
terday on the status of United
States Japanese relations. Mr..
Churchill said he did not know if
American efforts to preserve peace
in the Pacific would succeed. If
they fail. he added. and should the
United States become involved in
war with Japan a British declara-
ton will follow within the hour"
Administration supporters dis
missed the opposition attacks on
Mr.. Churchill as ill-founded. They
contended that Mr.. Churchill mere
ly had given assurance that Britain
would fight on the side of the United
States IL any Far Eastern conflict.
