CHILDREN OF ALIEN ENEMIES.
(Bit TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
AUCKLAND, 23rd February.
An important matter concerning tha rights of persons born in New Zealand of alien enemies was raised in the Supreme Court to-day on the motion for admission of Jack Kalman, of the Public Trust Office, as a solicitor. Kalman's father was of German birth, and the candidate was born in , Christchurch in 1892, twelve yeai's before bis . father was naturalised. Under the War Regulations Act of 1915, the father was denaturalised and. the question arose as to whether this applied also to the son.
Mr. Justice Cooper adjourned the application and consulted the. Chief J.ustice. In the afternoon both Judges were on the Bench, and Sir Robert Stout said that he would like the case referred to the Court of Appeal, as it was of supreme public importance.
