Description
The petition for the writ of habeas corpus herein shows that relators-appellants were arrested pursuant to warrants issued by the Department of Justice and are now in the custody of the District Director of Immigration and Naturalization at Ellis Island, New York, pending hearings on deportation charges. They are German nationals who were admitted to this country as newspaper men under a treaty between our government and Germany and were therefore entitled to enter "to carry on trade" under such treaty provision. 8 U.S.C.A. § 203(6). They have now been indicted in the District of Columbia, and have been released on bail awaiting trial, for failing to register as required by the statute providing for the registration of "foreign propagandists," 22 U.S.C.A. §Â§ 233a-233g, and in the case of relator Zapp, upon the further charge of having filed a false registration statement under this statute. And deportation is now being sought because they have remained in this country after failing to maintain the exempt status, i.e., that of a trader, under which they were admitted as non-immigrants. 8 U.S.C.A. § 214.
