In addition to this number there will undoubtedly be several returned service men who will take advantage of the hearing on September 14, since it is unnecessary for ex-service men who took part in the recent war to make a filing for naturalization pa pers. On the day set for the hearing these men may appear with two wit nesses who can swear that the appli cant is the man named in the honor able discharge. They may petition and receive a hearing on the same day. Other applicants must have their petition filed at least 90 days prior to the date set for the hearing. New petitions filed for the Septem ber hearing include Charles Loren Cummer, Nels Knutson Lybeck, Hans Anderson, Michael Michelson, Olaf Ongstad, Elias Snarsba, Arne Olson Storlell, William Kaiser, William F.
