FRIGHT BRINGS BACK SPEECH
Immigrant, Once Deported, May
Now Be Permitted TO Land.

Barred from entering the United States
on the ground that she was deaf and
dumb. Mary Hsschitz. an immigrant from
Russia, has asked that her case be re-
opened, as, owing TO a sudden fright, she
had regained her lost faculties.
She is thirty-two years old and came to
America with her mother, Schulz, on the
steamer Campanello, both planning TO join
Isaac Lisschltz, the father Of Mary, who
lives in Chicago. The Campanello stops
at New York, but goes on 10 Halifax, and
the two immigrants chose to make their
landing at that point.
They arrived on January 10 and a few
days later took a train for Chicago, but
were stopped on the American border. ana
when It was learned that Mary was deaf
and dumb she was prohibited from enter
ing. An appeal was made TO the authori-
ties at Washington, but without avail. Both
mother and daughter then were sent back
TO Halifax, where they were booked for
passage to Rotterdam on the Campanello.
The steamer, in coming from Halifax to
New York. experienced terrific gales, and
the violence Of the storm and the terror
of the passengers so frightened Mary Lis
schitz that she talked and heard for the
first time in seventeen years
When the steamer stopped at New York
the Hebrew Sheltering Arms and lmmi-
grant Aid Society sent an agent to look
into the story OF the woman's recovery ot
voice and hearing, and upon his confrma-
tion Of the report an appeal was taken in
the case The authorities have not yet an
pouncad their decision but II Is probable
that the woman and her mother Will now be
permitted to land and join their relative
in Chicago.

scribed the inJustices OF the competitive

that socialism. while It would not bring

As for Professor Clark. he saw so many
points 10 accede to in Mr.. Hillquits ar

that he didn't accept socialism as a cure,
there was no excitement at all for the

The only moment OF excitement was dur

Professor Clark had said that under So
