When is an Am erican not an American? That is a hard nut to crack, according to the American embassy in London. Rather it is a whole bushel of hard nuts to crack. But some of the nuts have been cracked, it was learned today, with the result that scores or "Am ericans" in England are now witnout a country. Tho issuance of passports is one of " the embassy's most troublesome duties. Numerous Americans who have iresidod in England for ten, fif tnnn or twenty vears decided nfter tiiu YVHI lC;wi, twin ...v. w . w-. tj nfter the Zeppelins put London on their calling list, that they had bet tor Inquirtl ynto their citizenship. All wanted American passports. Some wanted to go back to America. Others were bound for France or other comparatively Zeppelin-less climes. There was the rub. Passport officials at Uncle Sam's London address struggled with the problem. The applicants, many of them with English nccent, so long had they beon out of touch with the EICHEY PIANO HOUSE Statute of Liberty, were forced to answer imposing lists of questions, which were forwarded to the State Department at Washington. The Department of State acting on a musty and long unused law, decreed that to bo recognized as an American in a foreign country, a person must report to the proper American au thorities at various times; duly pay taxes in America if he or she has enough property to be taxed; or make a visit home once in a while. A great many Anglicized Americans had failed in this, in whole or in part They ere now persons - without a country. A passport is required to go most anywhere ait (present So America's lost citizens are marooned in England. Little News 'O the Day Dallas, Texv. Jan. 14.
