Tax on aliens and military training discussed in Washington
Former Governor Glynn of New York and former Mayor Fitzgerald of Pittsburgh urged the Senate Finance Committee to impose a $100 tax on every alien in the United States who has not expressed intent to become a citizen. They argued the levy could raise $200,000,000, with exemptions for aliens who enlist in the U.S. armed forces. Separately at Fort Sheridan, officials anticipate strict screening to weed out unsuitable candidates as about five thousand men enter officer training, potentially affecting a significant portion of trainees.
