Troubles In Getting
Boys Body.

NEW YORK. Feb. 21.-Dimcul-
ties she encountered in reaching
her sons grave in France and in
getting the body aboard the steam
ship Brittania for transportation to
America were related today by Mrs.
A. Devera of Chicago.
Mrs. Devera, who left today for
Chicago with the body declared she
would have failed in her mission
had II not been for the assistance Of
the American Red Cross and the
Knights of Columbus. She declared
her success in getting past the
French regulations was due to an
"unstinted use Of American dol
lars" among the employees Of French
bureaus.
There are no arrangements
whereby an American parent can get
"A casket out Of France except by the
tipping process" Mrs. Devera said.
There are scores of relatives of
dead Americans now in France at
tempting to do as l did. The knights
OF Columbus and the American Red
Gross are doing everything posi-
BILE for relatives. They have located
scores of graves but are pOwerless
% do anything except with the con-
sent of the French authorities"
Her son was James Devera. and
Mrs. Devera is the first American
mother to bring back the body of a
son who died from wounds received
in the world war. Upon her arrival
here she almost gave up in despair
when an undertaken wanted to
charge $45 for transporting the body
from the pier 10 the Pennsylvania
station. The knights OF Columbus
again came TO the rescue with a
motor truck.
Mrs. Devera arrived in France
with several hundred dollars. she
said, but had only $50 left when
she landed here.
