BY HELEN LOMBARD.

No matter how uncomfortable a
throne may have proved to be, its
former occupant seldom can resist
the temptation to try to get into
the uneasy seat once more.
From Mexico City the former
King Of Rumania, Carol II, still
is pulling every available wire to
get into the United States in order
to put forth his claims to post
war throne. The news of the visits
Of each succeeding monarch-in-
exile to washington makes Carol
the more determined to press his
case here.
Having been politely but firmly
turned down on his request for an
American visitors visa, Carol has
tried to find ways around the diplo-
matte embargo on one Of the most
picturesque royal figures OF our
times. He endeavored to start a
Free Rumanian movement in Mexi-
co and asked his former Minister to
Washington, Radu Irimescu. who
was highly regarded in official
circles here, to head a cabinet
in-exile.
1rimescu's Career COlorfuI.
Irimescu is almost as picturesque
q figure as his monarch. He was
a midshipman at the German I'm
perial Naval Academy at Kiel and
then fought the Germans as a
Rumanian aviator during the First
World War.
After the war he went into bust
ness in New York and married an
American woman of New England
stock. Later he returned to Ru-
mania and eventually was made
Minister OF Aviation by Carol.
Among American businessmen
who had dealings with Rumania
Irimescu was known as a most
unorthodox Rumanian cabinet off,
cial. He was not allergic to hints
of possible personal gain for speed
ing transaction through the gov
eminent.
When the Nazis forced Caro-
from his throne Irimescu was serv-
ing as Rumania's Minister to the
United States, He resigned and
became an American citizen. Iri-
mescu is now an executive in ar
American aviation corporation. He
turned down his former sovereign's
offer Of premiership in cabinet-in-
exile-preferring to work for vic
tory by turning out planes and has

Citizenship
CASE TO BE
HEARD april II

| William Schneiderman's case ap-
pealing lower court verdicts revoking
his citizenship will be argued before
the United States supreme court in
the week Of April 81 the clerk of the
court announced.
"Schneiderman's citizenship status
has been obscure for almost two years
following the original decision against
him. Hundreds of thousands of Amer
leans have become concerned with the
underlying implications and agree
with Wendell Willkie, who will pre-
sent Schneidermans case without fee,
that the ruling of the highest tribunal
in the land will establish, as never
before, issues affecting civil liberties
and naturalization. Schneiderman has
at all times conducted himself in an
exemplary manner, in fact the govern
ment made no case against him other
than his membership in the Commun-
list party "As the state secretary of
the Communist party in California he
has spoken and written considerably
in support Of the war effort of the
government" Miss Mini Carson, ma
tional administrative secretary of the
Committee for Citizenship Rights,
stated.
Fifteen years ago, after complying
fully with every legal requirement,
Schneiderman became naturalized
citizen. At no time has the conten-
tion of the government centered on
any fact other than his political af
filiation. This has no precedent for
from citizenship, Miss
Carson pointed out.

Raw Materials BottIeneck
An explanation is offered as to why
there are still many idle machine tools
that could be turning out war mate
rails to lick Hitler. 1t is that there
is not a sufficient supply of raw
materials to keep these machines
working-that all raw materials are
being used up by machines already
at work.
1t is said that it will require at
least six more months before the sup
ply of raw materials is sufficiently
increased to keep all available ma
chine tools busy.
Marshall In Britain
Despite the defeats suffered by the
United Nations thus far, the time has
now arrived when Hitler has to do
some guessing as to what his oppon-
ents are going to do. The initiative
no longer rests entirely with him.
That is the meaning Of General Mar

Ter knows it. His presence there is
