RENTAL FORMS
NOW AVAILABLE
Area Rent Office Announ-
ces New Supply OF Land
lord Registration Blanks

The Area Rent Office announced
yesterday that an additional supply
of registration statements had been
received. Due to the fact that the
supply of these forms was exhaust
ed prior to the Both of June, land
lords were given an extension Of
time to July IS in which to file a
statement.
The Area Rent Office stated,
however, that they were in much
better position to answer any ques-
tons that may arise now than they
would be near the 18th due to the
fact that the Hotel and Rooming
House registration is supposed tc
start on that date. Landlords who
wish to do so may telephone the
office and requet that statement
be mailed to them. This will save
a trip to the office and since the
forms are self-explanatory, no help
is needed in their completion.
Persons who rent rooms to one
or two people are again cautioned
that they should register under the
present regulation. If rooms are
rented to three or more people they
should register under the Hotel and
Rooming House Regulation after

EXTENSION COURSE
OFFERED SOLDIERS
War Department Gives
Correspondence Study
To Aid Education

Soldiers of Camp Davis are be.
ing urged to make use of the Army
Institute established by the War de-
partment at Madison, Wis, to pro.
vide enlisted men the opportunity
to carry on correspondence study
which will contribute to their mill.
tary efficiency.
The Army Institute is accepting
applications for enrolment il cor
respondence courses under either
of two plans.
Enlisted personnel who have
been in active service for not less
than four months may enroll for
study directly under supervision of
the Army Institute, or under uni
versity or college extension divi-
sions.
Enrolment fee under the first
plan is two dollars per course, to
be paid by the student, while under
the second plan the government
will pay half the tuition fee (not to
exceed twenty dollars), the student
paying the other half.
Dozens of the most outstanding
colleges and universities in tn e
country are cooperating with the
Army by means of extension
courses.
In this way, soldiers have an op-
portunity to study a wide variety
of subjects, both elementary and
advanced. Those who have not had
the advantage of high school ed
ucation may enroll in high school
type courses, and the men who
have completed college courses,
may do advanced work.
Practically the only requirement
for enrolment is the willingness to
devote spare time to stu dy.
Courses are not to conflict with
regular military duties.
Courses, to mention just a few,
include English grammar, elemen-
tary and advanced mathematics,
engineering, refrigeration, clerical
Gall phases), telegraphy, carpen-
try, welding, radio operation and
steam fitting.

Federal authorities as the former
Fuehrer of the German-American
bund, was held in $4,000 bail to-
day as a draft law violator follow
ing his arrest in Mexico ano secret
return to this country.
He was charged with violating
the Selective Service act by failing
to notify his local draft board OF
his whereabouts. He also is under
Indictment by Hartford, Conn.
Grand Jury on charge of violat-
ing the 1917 espionage act.
1t was for this reason and the
fact that Kunze had been a fugitive

the high bail.
Reliable police sources in Mexico
City said that Kunze had told them
he had planned to escape to the
Azores islands. They said that
when Kunze was seized he had Just
provisioned a recently purchased
sea-going launch with 30-day sup
ply of food, water and fuel. They
also said he denied having made
contact with raiding German SUBJ
marines or having landed any Axis
agents.

wearing tennis shoes, Kuaze was
flanked by FBI agents during his
arraignment before Federal Judge
George C. Sweeney.
He could be sentenced to maxi
mum of five years in prison and
fined. s.. 900 if convicted On the Sc
lective Service charge.
Corcoran said that Kulze would
be released TO Hartford authorities
today and the purpose of the New
York arraignment was to place the
fugitive under bail before he trav-
eled farther. Thomas J. Dodd, spe-
cial assistant U. S. attorney in
Hartford, said that Kunze would be
arraigned there tomorrow at 10
a. m.
The fugitive, whose eXtraditlon
from Mexico was one of the quick !
est on record, simply was placed .

desirable alien and flown to the
Texas border where American au-
thorlties seized him for return to
