LAID CRIME TO ACTOR

Carre r. Carlton, theatrical producer
and husband of Edith Day, starring in
Orange Blossoms at the Fulton
Theater, yesterday sent a letter to i'm
migration authorities on Ellis Island
asking the dropping of the deportation
proceedings against Pat Somerset.
English actor playing with Miss Day
The request was denied
The letter was written November Z,
the day after Carlton had appeared at
Ellis Island at hearing granted
Somerset, and had given the authori-
ties documentary evidence against the
actor which the producer spent much
time and money collecting in this
country and overseas. Court records
and other sworn testimony showing
Somerset had committed IA crime in
volving moral turpitude" in his rela-
tons with Miss Day, were spread out
before the officials.
In the letter delivered yesterday to
immigration Commissioner Robert f.
Tod by a personal representative of
Carlton. the producer said he had
thought deeply since the proceedings
of the day before and wanted permis-

ask withdrawal of any action against
Somerset.
II feel that regardless OF what my
personal feelings may be and the wrongs
that have been done.' Carlton said
there is another life--their child Sat
stake. 1nasmuch as the parents intend
to marry as soon as the law allows, /
think l should do my part in simplify
ing matters for that child. repeat, /
am requesting this after the most de-
liberate and careful thought"
Commissioner Tod referred the letter
to Assistant Commissioner Harry r.
Lands, head of the Division of Exclu-
sions and Expulsions. Mr.. Lands told
the representative Of the producer:
''You may tell Mr. Carlton that the
Federal authorities have little to do
with the caprices of the persons in
volved in this case. and the deporta-
ton proceeding which have been started
against Pat Somerset will be carried to
a. prompt and certain finish. And If the
immigration service requires testimony
from Mr.. Carlton he will be brought to
Ellis Island regardless of his change OF
attitude"
While Mr.. Carlton was waiting for the
reply he called several newspaper men
to his office and explained his reasons
for writing the letter Laying a sheaf
of papers upon his desk he said he based
his request for a dismissal of the charges
against Somerset on the legal informa-
tion he had just received from England
that the actor and Miss Day have a
child. The producer said he had had in
timation of this previously. but had re-
ceived court records with proof only a
few days ago.
The child must be given the first
consideration" Carlton said. II sin
cerely hope the authorities will drop the
case. That will let Miss Day and Som
erset finish their engagement in Orange
Blossom. and let me get my divorce.
Then they can marry"
Carlton was asked what his attitude
would be toward Miss Day i'm regard to
business relations. lie replied that he
never would engage her for any OF his
plays. although he considered her a great
artist. He said he hopes that what has
occurred will not hurt her career.
