Kaiser Extradition Question In Dutch Courts
United Press dispatch reports British ex foreign office expert Sir Willoughby Maycock arguing extradition hinges on whether the Kaiser has personally committed an extraditable crime and whether abdication grants immunity. He notes Dutch law and 1918 treaty complicate any Dutch surrender and ponders sovereign immunity if abdication is formalized. The piece mixes this with a medical plug and a Bloomington Wesleyan University preservation note.

Springfield Ill Dec 30 Action for the Illinois supreme court holding that non residents of Illinois cannot hold state positions has disrupted the plans for the highways 4600 mile road system. Chief Highway Engineer Clifford Older says the ruling is a serious barrier to completing the system as engineers from other states may be forced to resign. The civil service commission laid out rules: non resident employees Blanketed into state service before July 1 1911 remain. those who became residents after one year and then took exams may stay. non residents who were non residents at exam and have had no later exam will be discharged effective January 1 1919. The division fears securing non resident engineers for spring road work. The litigation began when the civil service commission certified a non resident to the utilities commission prompting a mandamus contest.
