Leper Woman Loses
Fight to Stay in US.

Deportation Of a lepcr woman, the
first case of its kind In this district.
and the fourth in the history of the
department OF labor in the entire
United States, was announced Thurs
day morning by the immigration Of
flee here. The case extends over a
period OF nearly four years. and has
cost the government many thou

ton
Avka Kapeilo Bradanovic was born
5 in Austria about 80 years ago. In
1914 she came to the United States
70 live with relatives. She had a
brother. sister. and brother.in-
law in BeIlingham. She was admit
ted, and went to work in a fish can
merry there.
Two years later some white spots
were noticed on one Of Avka's
hands. Little was thought OF them,
but as they became more pronounced
II was rumored that Avka had con
tracted leprosy. The report spread
rapidly among the workers in the

The immigration authorities in Sc
attic took the matter up with the
department of labor at Washington,
but were turned down. Then, thru
private channels, certain influence
was brought to bear in the proper
direction. and an investigation OF the
woman was authorized and ordered.
Three specialists were called into
consultation and all three pro-
nounced Avka a ieper.
Upon this evidence Avka was CIV

MIGHTY GLAD" TO
DISPOSE OF HER
The war over and transportation
available, immigration authorities
here began preparations to send
Avka back to Austria. The whole
proceeding was new, and Unforeseen
difficulties were encountered. At
first, not a railroad company in
the West would agree to take the
woman. Finally one agreed to ac.
cept her, but would not furnish
special car. SO arrangements
were made with the Pullman com
pany direct. and coach secured.
Then permission from the public
health service in each state thru
which the car would pass must be
obtained, which at length was ac-
complished, and Sunday morning
Avka left over a Northern route
Twenty-Five separate fares had
to be bought TO pay for the spe.
cial car alone. and two nurses, n
doctor, and an officer had to be
sent along with the woman. Upon
her arrival in New York Thursday
the costly and dangerous passenger
was Immediately Transferred to n

would And q valuable asset. It il to
remove the old flagship OF Admiral
Farragut, the sloop Hartford, from
it's present mornings near New Lon
don, Conn, and place 1t in convenient
waters on the Potomac. The fact is.
as Mr. Roosevelt points out. only the
historically inclined know that the
sturdy old sloop ever flew the flag of
the hero, and all the honors have
hitherto been rendered the Constitu-
tion, anchored at Boston, and the Con-
stellation. at Newport.
The Hartford. however, played a
glorious part in the earlier days of
the great civil struggle, and to place
her where the myriads OF visitors
who gather in the capital annually
to enlarge the historical horizon per-
ceptibly. Moreover. these venerated
relics, like battle-scared ships, are
kept in repair by a fund appropriated
from the naval budget. and recently
all these souvenirs have become a
heavy burden to the hard-pressed sea
department. Now, Great Britain and
other of the older countries offer
solution well worthy of emulation.
For instance. no tourist embarking
at Portsmouth, with a few hours to
spare before departing for London or
the continent, fails to visit the flag
ship of Nelson. the Victory, which lies
in the harbor, and a most conspicuous
object. even far out at sea. 1t costs
two shiliings to board the old ship, but
tourists invariably find this no hard
ship compared with the pleasure de-
rived.
The ship is rugged out as she was
when the courageous Nelson fell in
the moment of victory. and. in addi-
ton, some notable works of art have
been added. with many brass tablets
commemorative of lesser heroes in the
fray. This admission fee not only
keeps the Victory spick and span
year in and year out. but the surplus
thus collected is used to support the
Victory home. large and substan-
tial refuge for retired sailors. which
sits on a high hill commanding the
doubt that the American public would.
If the project is properly presented.
respond just as generously If the
Hartford is anchored in the Potomac
and a small fee is asked to board her.
And many other naval trophies could
cease to be q drain on the public in
the matter Of taxation and become an
asset in more ways than a monetary
one.
Again American women, who are
proverbially presumed to be more
progressive, resourceful and Aner-
getic than their British sisters, can
follow the lead of the latter in that
new crusade inaugurated this sum
mer, and which is called THE Trust
