Theophil Binkcle is willing to face the most terrific barrage of fire and lead which an enemy might put down In front of American forces and he is just aa eager and willing to risk his life in No Man's Land carrying off wounded soldiers and ministering to their wants, but he is not willing to shoulder a gun and tpill the lite blood f a fellow man. Such was his earnest statement when he appeared at a special hear ing before Presiding Judge McCourt in quest of final papers which would admit him to the full rights and priv ileges of American citizenship. Theo phil is a native of Germany. Because of his apparent sincerity in his conscientious scruples against bearing arms and his equally sincere willingness to give up his life for the land which he 'asks to adopt him, Judge' McCourt was reluctant to deny him citizenship papers without further examination and investigation. The court asked Naturalization Inspector Tomlinson to prepare a brief of the case and submit it to the court within the next few days. Binkele's petition for citizenship is being held in abeyance until after Judge McCourt makes a more thor ough inquiry, although naturalization officials were inclined to the belief that full citizenship would be granted. Final Artloo Delayed. Binkele, who is 32 years old and married, filed his first papers on Feb ruary 28, 1917, just a few weeks be fore the declaration of war. Final ac tion was held up because of the war and a special hearing was not granted until this week. When he was being questioned by Judge McCourt. Binkele answered all questions satisfactorily until the court inquired of him whether or not he would be willing to bear arms for this country. "That is something which I must refuse to do." replied "Binkele, as as tonishment .showed on the faces of all in the courtroom. "1 am a member of the church of the .Millenial Pawn which prohibits me from bearing arms against any fellow man," the German explained. "More than 100 members of our faith were shot down by the military in Germany because they refused to join the German army, and I, too, must refuse to bear arms for any country." Judge McCourt then asked the wit ness if he would be willing to assist this country in case of war with Ger many or any other country. "I would, gladly die for America and would give any aid within my power in case of war, except to eliouider a gun," responded Binkele with a slow and intense enunciation of words. "I would face any barrage which an enemy might lay down In front of American troops. I would go to the front lino trenches and perform any duty within my power. I would go out across No Man's Land of any country to aid my wounded or dying comrades, but I cannot shoulder arms because of my religious scruples against kill ing a fellow being." Cane la Most Inuxual. Naturalization officials say this is the most unusual case which has been before local courts in years and for that reason they delayed final de cision until they could determine whether or not the applicant is really entitled to the rights and privileges of American citizenship. The young bride of the German told the court she would be willing for her "husband to die for his adopted country, although she too, as a mem ber of the same religious faith, has conscientious scruples against the bearing of arms. Binkele lives r" 830 Clinton street. Judg? McCourt Indicated final de cision would be made within the next few weeks. SPEAKERS TO BE TRAINED Five World Movement Teams Will Visit Various Counties.
