Congressman Sutherland has Sc
cured passports for Mary, the wife,
and Tony and Mary, the children OF
MIR. and Mrs. Joseph Pugliesa. whose
home is In Mcdowell county. When
the war broke out in Europe, the wife
and the children were at Pontegrando,
province of Catanzas, Italy, and they
have been marooned there ever since.
Joe, the father, Is an American citizen,
and writes to Congressman sutherland
proudly of that fact. He has not been
an American citizen very long, only
since last June when his final papers
were issued to him, and he sent on his
papers to the congressman so that the
passport authorities would know that
he was entitled to have issued the
coveted papers which will restore his
little family to him. What makes the
case more than ever interesting Is that
Tony, the son, aged three years, Is q
native born citizen OF West Virginia.
He is q son of the independent state
of Mcdowell" The passport people
took a livelier interest in the case than
usual. 1t presented different phases
for settlement than the common run.
The passports have gone on their way,
and there will no doubt be prepara-
lions under way somewhere In NC
Dowell" for a grand reunion OF the
Pugliese family to be held before
