your Court is April 3, 1928

On that date the petitions on the accompanying list will, if notice has been

posted by the Clerk of Court as required by section 5 of the act of June 29, 1906,

be ready for final hearing, the necessary 90 days having elapsed between the date

of filing and the date of final hearing, as provided by section 6 of that act.

It will not be possible for the Government to have a representative in [illegible]

at the hearing, and for this reason, and in the thought that it may be helpful to

you, the liberty is being taken of setting forth in the numbered paragraphs below

the essential requirements to be met by the petitioners. So far as it has been

possible, investigations and administrative examinations have been made by the

Naturalization Service. These indicate that the requirements have been complied

with to the degree shown on the list. Cases showing failure to meet the require-

ments are also listed. Should the evidence fail to satisfy the Court of any

applicant's qualifications, or of the competency or credibility of the witnesses,

further examination will be made upon request.

(1) Proof to the satisfaction of the Court that the petitioner is a person of good

moral character, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United

States, and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the same.

(2) Residence of the applicant in the United States for at least 5 years continu-

ously and in the State in which the petition is filed for at least 1 year continu-

ously, immediately preceding the date of filing the petition.

(3) Declaration of intention, not less than 2 nor more than 7 years old upon the

date of filing the petition, attached thereto at the time the petition was filed.

(4) Certificate of arrival, if arrival was on or after June 29, 1906, showing the

date, place, and manner of the petitioner's arrival in the United States, attached

to the petition at the time the petition was filed.

(5) Verification of the petition, at the time it was filed, by two citizen wit-

nesses who show in the affidavits and by their oral testimony in open court at the

final hearing that they have personal knowledge of the petitioner's residence in

the United States and in the State during the entire period the petitioner has

resided in the State up to 5 years, and as to his good moral character, attachment

to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, and other qualification

including his knowledge of our institutions of government.

(6) Depositions duly taken after the requisite statutory notice, covering the

period of petitioner's residence, moral character, and attachment to the principles

of the Constitution during such period of his residence outside of the State in

which the petition is filed which is not covered by the oral testimony of witnesses

in open court.

Chief Naturalization Examiner,

Pittsburgh, Pa.


Dear Sir:

I am enclosing a filled-in preliminary form for petition for

naturalization, together with my Declaration of Intention.

I was prevented from petitioning last March (exactly two years

after taking out my first paper) for my second papers by a temporary

visit abroad of six months and a half, due to the illness and death

of my mother. I understand from information received from Washington

by the Court House of Delaware, Ohio, that such a temporary absence

does not interfere with the taking out of the final papers if the

alien has maintained his residence in this country, which I have done.

I am still residing at Delaware, Ohio, but I expect to leave

in October to teach at the University of Wisconsin. I am, therefore,

very anxious to complete the necessary formalities for naturalization

while I am still in Ohio where I have resided since 1918. For this

reason, and also because my witnesses are to leave Delaware within

a few weeks for the summer, I shall appreciate all you may do in

order to send the necessary papers to the Clerk of Court as soon as

possible. I shall be glad to have you wire at my expense for any

information you might have to get from Washington or New York, for

the issuance of a certificate of arrival.

Thanking you for your assistance in this matter, I am

Respectfully yours,
