" ' OPINIO GIVF8 BEiSOK The major portion pf the court's opin ion 'follows : . "J J. is claimed ip the present indictment that fjtheridge was pot entitled to citi zenship because he had been convicted of felonies in 1905 and 1907 and confined in -the state penitentiary of New Jersey for is months and twa .years, respec tively, of which facta the defendant had knowledge at the time he aided $nd ad vised him as stated. 'There is no charge n the Indictment that JOtberidge did not in fact possess the requisite moral character or that the aeienaant maae any raise testimony en his application for admission, MAS MAY KEFOJtM "It is, of course, the duty of an ap plicant who' has ; been cpnvicted . of a felony to disclose that fact to the court. and of the witnesses to make like dis closure if within their knowledge, and failure to dq so may be sufficient ground for setting aside and cancelling tha cer tificate. But it docs not follow as a matter of law that because a man has been convicted of a felony he may not thereafter reform and o conduct him self as to satisfy a court that he had behaved as a man ox good moral char acter a sufficient length of time te en title him to admission. Many cases hold or 'assume that tha ultimata fact ta ba determined on an application for admis sion ta citizenship la the pioral character pf the applicant during the five years preceding the date of his petition and that an alien denied admission foe want ef go4 moral character may renew his petition five years thereafter and be admitted, if ha can show to the satisfac tion of tha court that during such five year period he has possessed tha re quisite moral character. KO CBUfP . CHAEQEP "It is unnecessary to determine that question at this time, for o crime is charged against defepdant unless it is to be rqled as a matter of 'law that Etheffdge's convictions of felonies in 1605 and 1907, without more-, deprive him of the right to apply for and be admitted, 11 years' thereafter, if he could show : to tho satisfaction of the court that, notwithstanding such con victions, he had reformed and there after behaved himself aa a man of good moral character, and I do not think it csua, "K Is urged that congress has estab lished the policy of the' government in reference to aliens eonvicted ef crimes involving moral turpitude by proyiding for their deportation, but this is a part pf an act regulating the immigration of aliens t.o, - ana neir residence in,- the United States, and not of the naturalize? tion law. It was passed in 191? and therefore is not applicable to Etheridere's case, whatever affect it may have on tha right ta admission of one who Is sub ject to deportation as provided therein.
