Show MRS. CUTHILL NOT CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON, Feb. 7. Legal authorities authori-ties here were Inclined to the opinion tonight to-night that Mrs. Alexander Cuthill, one of the California's passengers whose husband hus-band had taken out first naturalization papers, could not be classed as an American Ameri-can citizen. It was explained that under the naturalization laws the granting of the first papers merely shows that the applicant has signified an intention to become a citizen and does not entitle him to the privileges or immunities of citizenship. Because of the unusual complications surrounding the case in question, however, how-ever, no official in a position to speak with authority would venture an offhand off-hand opinion regarding it. |
