n.RI E heading bill defeated
in MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE
I Rinsing, Mich. (J. T. A.) The
Michigan Legislature today defeated
the Hamley Bible Reading bill by a
vote of 46 to 44.
This measure proved one of the
most controversial of the present ses
sion and called for a decision from
Attorney General Brucker on the con
stitutionality of the bill. Public hear
ings were held on the measure at
which Rabbi A. M. Hershman and
Rabbi Leon Fram of Detroit appeared
in opposition to it.
The measure, as amended in com
mittee, called for Bible reading in the
public schools and for excusing pupils
for religious instruction elsewhere.

New York (J. T. A.)—An inquiry
directed by the .Jewish Daily Bulle
tin to His Eminence Patrick, Cardi
nal Hayes, for his opinion on the con
templated Passion Play production
and the objections raised against it
both from a Jewish and Christian
point of view brought forth the re
ply that the Cardinal does not “com
ment through the press on matters as
you suggest.”

to say the Cardinal has taken no inter
est whatever in the presentation of
the Passion Play.”

Immigration Commissioner General
Issues Regulations For Legaliza
tions of Unlawful Entries Prior
to June 3, 1921
Washington (J. T. A.)—Regula
tions setting forth the procedure to be
followed by aliens who entered the
United States prior to June 3, 1921
and who cannot produce a certificate
of arrival were issued by Commission
er General of Immigration Hull in a
general order of the Department of
Labor.
The regulations, based on the act of
Congress of March 2, 1929, providing
for the registry’ of such immigrants
and the issuance to them of records
of admission for permanent residence,
specify that application by persons af
fected is to be made in duplicate form
to the Commissioner General and may
be submitted either in person or by
mail to the immigration office nearest
to the applicant’s place of residence.
The application must be signed and
sworn to before an officer authorized
to administer oaths and must be ac
companied by a postal money order
for twenty dollars, payable to the
Commissioner General of Immigra
tion. Cash will not be accepted.
This order will go into effect on
July 1, 1929, following which date ap
plications for legalization may be
made. The burden of proof is on the
applicant who has to submit evidence
on the six points of inquiry which will
be made. The six points are: (1) That
the applicant is an alien not ineligible
to citizenship; (2) That there is no
record of admission for permanent
residence; (3) That he entered the
United States prior to June 3, 1921;
(4) That he has resided in the United
States continuously since such entry;
(5) That he is a person of good moral
character; and (6) That he is not sub
ject to deportation.
If the applicant has absented him
self from the United States during the
period for one year, it will be consid
ered that he has broken the contin
uity of his residence and cannot, there
fore, claim legalization under this or
der. The burden of proof is upon the
applicant. For the purpose of natural
ization the applicant to whom a record
of registry will be granted will be
deemed to have been lawfully admit
ted to the United States as of the
date of his entry. The claims of the
applicant must be supported by two
witnesses, American citizens, who
must appear personally at the hearing
which will be held by the appointed
officers and only in cases of remote
ness or disability will their affidavits
be accepted.
“In seeking to determine whether an
applicant is a person of good moral
character the examining inspector will
ascertain, so far as possible, sources
from which information relative there
to may be obtainable, and thereafter
make such inquiries or conduct or
cause to be conducted such investiga
tions as may be appropriate. If it ap
pears that an applicant is deportable
the case will be handled in the usual
manner,” the order declares.
