Americans in British Service Expatriated Oath of Allegiance to Crown Wipe Ont T7. 8. OltUenahip; Tho With Trench XCnst Trove Klghts Xetaiaed. Washington. Nov. 2. (U. P.) Any American who fights for England In j the present war expatriates himself, j The state department made this clear . in connection with its action in ref us- 1 lng' a passport to Theodore Marburg Jr. of Baltimore, who Is returning to England to rejoin the royal aviation corpa. Marburg Is the son of the former United States minister to Bel glum. ExD&triation results from the fact that all British, soldier must take tbe oath of allgelance to the British crown which, in th case of Ameri cans, wipes out their allegiance to this country. As for Americans fighting with the foreign legions of the French army, the department made known that the burden will rest upon them to prove the oath thejt have taken has not expatriated them. Even after peace Is declared, those who return to this country in desti tute 'circumstance will be treated a ordinary alien Immigrants. It was learned today also that the state department has suggested to th French government that it disoontlnue referring to the American aviator with the French army as members of tbe American corps owing to the false light in which- such references place the United States as a neutral nation.
