Italian girls who came to the Uni d States to marry American col ljerS, but who have been held at Ellis Island because they could not pass the literacy test, learned that Washington had ruled they may be admitted to the country for sixty days providing they sign a pledge not to marry during that time.
 If Senator Caldcr's bill to exempt them from the reading test i~ passed, they will be free at any time to wed their soldier lovers. There is another chance for tho girls. for during the so days, they may learn to read the acquired 40 words.
 Each soldier must get a friend ol relative to furnish a $500 bond to guarantee that his prospective bride will not become a public charge.
 The news spread so rapidly and the doughboy Romeos acted 50 promptly that it was said at Ellis Island four or five of the girls prob ably would gain their freedom at once. despite the fact that some of the men live in distant cities. Ev cry man expressed his determination to send his "girl" to school day, night, or both until she can read.
 Some of the fiancees have been at Ellis Island since October and Novem- Der.
