FBI to Handle Alien Checkups in Cleveland Area

One Austrian-born Canton man was detained for an unpatriotic remark, with at least 30 others detained statewide. Two Bund members were picked up in Cleveland. Chief Clark confirms FBI requests are being met and no comments about investigations. Sheriff France notes badge shortages may force nonmetal badging for deputies guarding plants and utilities.
