EUen Tiny Bottle of Oil
Must Pay Its Duty

4 customs inspector finds three bot
ties Of olive oil in the bottom Of one
Of the alien bags. An appraiser looks
the oil over. and the collector accepts
small painful of duty. This is
strange matter to Hulda. She Is in
dignant when the uniformed man makes
her give him few coins for the fif-
teen pound cheese she brought over es-
pecially for Hans. She paid for 1t
once in Amsterdam.
And where is Hans. anyway? She
scans the rows Of faces outside the
inclosure that keeps the steerage pas
, sengers toward the end of the pier.
And she weeps once more-because she
has to pay for her cheese again, be-
cause she cant see Hans, and because
she Is excited and confused.
In her hand she. and all the other
immigrants. hold little yellow cards.
Her own card bears her name, the
name OF the ship she came in. and
other items. She can't quite under
stand the significance of the card, but
she holds 1t like grim death.
After hours of waiting. a man In
uniform yells at them. Hulda doesn't
understand what he Is saying any more
than her fellows do, but she knows
what he means. What portable bum
dies and wicker trunks the immigrants
have they drag to their shoulders, their
heads or their backs. and some stupidity,
some excitedly. all chattering like mag
pies. so in the direction the officers
point.
And they soon find themselves in
another boat This boat leaves the
dock. and steams farther away from
It. 1t takes them TO Ellis Island, and
then snugglcs close to one side of
the harbor. The immigrants are di-
rerted to a doorway of rambling
brick building. This is the admins
tration building on the northern end
Of the T-shaped island.
The immigrants swarm into a base
ment hall. II is screened off by wire
fence, which here and there opens into
wire fenced runway. These runways
lend past men In long white robes, like
nightgowns. They are the doctors.
There are some women doctors. Hulda
finds in the inclosure many immigrants
from another ship which landed a few
hours before her own. Since 1t is close
to the noon hour, white jncketed men
bring in hampers Of sandwiches and
crackers. and cups Of milk. The air is
heavy, because so many unwashed for
