LONDON (By maiD When the
French Army was mobilized in 1899
a pale, bespectacled youth of %
calmly announced himself to the
adjutant of the artillery regiment to
which he had been ordered to report
as M. Nicolas Louis DurassoW,
Prince D'Anjou de France.
The adjutant looked at the name
card the recruit presented and then
consulted the colonel. The result
was that the young man spent a
few weeks in the guardhouse and
then, on complaint of the military
authorities, was sentenced to a year
in Jail by a civil court in Nice.
He was accused of using a false
name and carrying forged docu
ments. Thus started musical COM
edy series of events which are now
filling columns in the German-con-
trolled French press. In effect the
studious, slightly naughty youth,
had claimed to be the last of the
Capets, ruling family of France for
400 years from the end Of the 10th
century, who were succeeded due to
temporary lack of male heirs by
a family of upstart cousins, the
Bourbons.
The boy fought back. Freed of

Morrison Tells House
Island Was Aiding Axis
BY the Associated Press.

Declaring that German subma-
rines have been refueled' at the
French Island of Martinique, Rep
resentative Morrison, Democrat, of
Louisiana told the House yesterday
this situation is serious and some
thing should be done Immediately
Mr.. Morrison said he had def
mite information" concerning the
U-boat activities and "as a matter
of fact, workmen on defense prof.
ects in Trinidad could turn on their
short-wave receiving sets and hear
commanders of the German subma-
rines talking back and forth about
refueling and the Island of Mar
Unique was mentioned frequently"
The Louisianan said he was call
ing this matter especially to the
attention Of the President of the
United States in the hope that &C
ton would be taken.
Last Friday, on the occasion of
the abrogation of United States
agreements with Martinique, Secre-
tary of the Navy Knox said there
was no evidence that the island had
been useful to the Axis, either for
submarine operations or otherwise.
Mr. Knox said the Navy always
had observation there"
