Professor DeFell. who is staying at

ing his resignation from the university
faculty, says the discrepancies found in
birth dates and nationality . statements
he has given, at different times and
places are due to doubts in his own

that the young man applied for first

Hans Harthan, Jr., a subject of the
Kaiser, and that In declaring his in

the date of birth in May. 1886, says
Mr. Ray. The latter would place the
young man outside the draft age, while
the birth date recorded at Berkeley
would leave him amenable to the draft.

pursuing investigations as to the ex-
