IN new COUNTRY,
SHE MISSES SON
Nine Year Old KoWsa Boy Cannot
Join Mother Here

A nine-year- boy lives in Greece
his widowed mother and 12-year- old
sister live in New Britain. They long
to see his face but are prevented by
the new immigration laws from be
ing joined by the boy. This is the
story told Salvation Army officials to-
day by Mrs. Mary Kowsa and her
daughter Katherine, of "a Clark
street.
Five years ago Mrs. Kowsa came to
this country with her husband and
daughter, leaving the boy, who was
not very we'll at that time, in charge
of an aunt in his native land. The
father has since passed away and only
the mother and her daughter are
here They long for the son and
brother.
Recently Mrs. Kowsa went to the
steamship ticket Office conducted by
former Mayor George A. Quigley and
purchased a ticket for the boy to
come to America and once again Join
the mother who longs to see him. Mrs.
Kowsa is not young and passing years
of toll and trouble have left their
marks upon her face. She anticipat-
ed great JOY in greeting her beloved
son.
But the tickets came back. Mr..
Quigley has been forced to cancel the
passage and the money has been re-
turned. The boy remains in Greece.
This is one phase of the injustice
of the law which aims to curb a too
great influx Of immigrants from for
eign lands. The quota from Greece
has been exhausted and the family is
separated.
Mrs. Kowsa was advised to await
the passage Of the substitute immiSra-
ton bill now in the hands Of the L.
S. immigration committee, which bill
is expected to overcome some OF these
difficulties. There is nothing the
mother can do but wait.
The boy resides with his aunt in
Miteene Greece. His board is paid
by his mother in New Britain, she
sends $40 and $50 payments at inter-
walls. She works in a local factory and
earns about 50 week

HUNGRY FAMILY
LIVES IN CELLAR


NCoIlllued FROM FIRST Page)
from freezing, but not enough to keen
them from suffering. No shoes Tor
their feet and no warm underwear to
supplement their outer garments, they
nave been going to school, when pos
sible, clad in the best their mother
could provide.
Ill, but without medical attention,
underfed in vain attempt to pro-
vide nourishment enough for her
children, the future looked blue in
deed to this poor woman, yesterday
But today the skies look somewhat
brighter and there are faint beams OF
sunshine breaking through the clouds
for the unfortunate family. Captain
Tom Gabrielson and Captain Anna
Johnson, of the Salvation Army, acct
IDENTITY stumbled onto the family while
Investigating conditions yesterday
Poor, but in a vain attempt to keep
up that spirit of pride which has pre-
vented her for seven long years from
accepting any charity, with the ex-
ception of two pairs of shoes given
her by friends, the woman was re-
luctant to admit her unlimited WISH
tors.
But overcoming this mistaken pride
is one of the duties Of Salvation Army
officers on their errands of mercy. It
is for just such people, whose mem
cries of better days will not permit
them to apply to charitable organiza-
tons for aid, that the local corps Is
asking for $4,000 to carry on it's work
next year. SO the officers entered and,
accustomed as they are to poverty
stricken sights, were startled by what
they saw.
They were not permitted a glimpse
into any room but the kitchen, where
they found an idle stove, a rickety
table, several old chairs and the tub
fun of cold water and soiled clothing
forming the entire list of furniture.
1t was what is known in salvation
Army circles as a case for emergency
relief. Captains Gabrielson and John
son Immediately went into action.
Coal was provided, food obtained,
steps were taken to secure warm
shoes and clothing and even second
hand furniture will be provided as far
as possible.
