Austrians' Papers Cannot Be Acted Upon Until War is Over The anxiety of more than. 100 Aus trians who have rushed to the natural ization office in the court house to signify their intention of becoming Americans before the declaraton of Mar was largely unfounded, according to Miss Grove of the naturalization bureau. , , "There is no law prohibiting enemy alitns from signifying their intenton of becoming citizens of this country and taking out their first papers. They may even make application for their second papers, which would admit them to full citizenship, but these ap plications cannot be granted until peace has been declared," she says. There have been 100 applications for first papers filed in the last two weeks, more than 50 in the last two days, and 30 of these were filed Fri day, on the eve of the declaration of war. No applications have been filed since war was decided, although there is nothing to prevent the is suance of first papers to Austrians who can qualify even at this time. The authorities welcome any stimula tion in the "Americanization" move ment. Mehrens Discharged After Hearing Before U. S. Official Peter Mehrens, formerly manager of a department in a local store, also formerly a socialist candidate for city commissioner and for congress, was discharged after a hearing before the United States commissioner Saturday morning'. He was charged with vio lation of the war laws of the country. Sam Hurst testified that Mehrens ordered several United States flags in his department removed. He ad mitted that he allowed some to re main u place. Max Loweunieyer testified that Mehrens declared to him, "I salute no flag except the red flag." George Shanahan, 2756 Webster street, testified that Mrs. Mehrens de clared at a card game where he was present that she "hoped Germany would lick them all and that every body who goes over there to fight Germany would be killed." Tic s Mehrens made no comment on wife's remark. . Jim Buckley, manager of boxer: out with, a slam at Gunboat S.ii whom Jim used to lead about country.
