FACING THE CUSTOM HOUSE
American Women, According to a
Magazine Writer, Find the Customs
Law Peculiarly Oppressive.

We American women find the Gus,
toms law peculiarly oppressive be-
cause it is almost the only law with
which most of us ever come into con-
tact, says a writer in the Century.
We go about our task at homeo live
out our days and die, without a
thought Of legal obligations. We are
proud of our freedom, too, when we
travel, glorying in it, boasting of per-
sonal liberty as the very breath OF
our national existence, demanding,
because Of it, the overthrow of SO
many social traditions abroad that
our less-favored sisters on the other
side regard us with awe and envy.
Then we start for home. One day a
steamship steward knocks at our
stateroom door, hands Us the govern
ment's printed form of declaration,
and the Notice to Passengers" Sud-
denly, for the first time in our lives,
we find ourselves bump up against"
the law. Some of us cannot under
stand it. We tremble; our hearts
beat. We have consultations with
friends and strangers. Blood-curdling
stories are told. We can think of
nothing else, talk of nothing else.
Where have we packed our new
things, where our old? Will they dig
out everything? viii they believe
US? Those little presents we have
brought in-are they presents until
We have declared them? And so on,
and SO on, until our last days become
q nightmare compared with which
seasickness is a paradise. Neither is
there any man to protect US with any
of those liberal Interpretations"
which stand most of us in stead. We
must go through the ordeal as we &c
through death-aloue!
