Bergdoll, draft dodger, now living in ! SBwitzerland, is expected to return to the United States through the impor- tunities of his mother, who is going to Europe to visit her son, Mrs. Bergdoll told government offi- cials that she is anxious for her son's return and that she wants him to serve his sentence, This was the sit- uation Chester N. Farr of Philadel- phia, her counsel, outlined to Allen Property Custodian Miller, who then consented that the state department issue Mrs. Bergdoll a passport, Government officials said that if the fugitive should return and serve his sentence there would be no claim against his $1,300,000 estate, which is now held in custody by the alicn property custodian. Unless this is done, it is pointed out, this money may go to pay claims of Americans against the German government. While it is known that Bergdoll is not anxious to serve his sentence, his lawyer said that his funds, as well as those of his mother, were getting low and necessity is forcing this man without a country to return to the land where he refused to respond to the colors. Because of financial stress here and Bergdoll's inability to earn any money abroad, government officials appear to be confident that the fugitive will return with his mother, serve his sen- tence and have his property restored. The amended trading with the enemy act in one section reads: “No person shall be entitled to the return of any property or money un- der the provisfons of this act who is a fugltive from justice from the Unit- ed States or territory thereof.” NORWALK YOUTH SHOOTS AND KILLS HIS FRIEND Claims That City Real Estate Dealer Has Exceeded Authority in Ask- ing Petition.

The reasons given for the resigna- tion consisted of objection to what the officlals characterized as Governor Gen. Leonard Wood's policy and de- sire to intervene and control even to the smallest details “our government both insular and local in utter disre- gard to the authority and responsibil- ity of the department heads and other officials coneerned” and which “policy recently culminated in an unfortunate incident which shocked to its founda- tions the public opinlon of the coun- try when you, by undue interference with the powers and jurisdiction of the secretary of the interlor and«the mayor of Manila reinstated a member of the secret service of the city who had been legally suspended from of- fice and whose resignation you sub- sequently accepted on your own ini- tiative. And, to make matters worse you took this action without hearing the proper officlals.” Governor Gen. Wood accepted the resignations although he sald, he did 8o with regret. The resignations of Dr. Jose P. Laurel, secretary of the interior and of Mayor Ramon Fernandez of Man- ila resulted from the exoneration and reinstatement of Ray Conley, United State secret service agent, charg®ml with bribery, referred to in the state- ment, Balfour Declaration Is Cause of Latest Holdup Jerusalem, July 18.
