Belgian Woman Sent
On Useless Voyage

Washington, Aug 10. - Official
cial Washington is aroused over the
pitiful case of Mrs. Remi Carton, Bel
eian woman who with her eight-year-
old son was forced by ofieial red tape
at Ellis Island to make an extra 5000
mile round trip to Europe in order to
gain entry TO the United States under
4 new quota.
Indignation over the Carton case is
as intense among supporters of the
quota" immigration law as it IS
among opponents of the members.
Senator Frank B. Willis, of Ohio,
a member of the Senate committee on
immigration and supporter OF the
"auota ameasure," condemned the
Carton ruling in the strongest lang
uage.
absolutely absurd" Willis said. at
is such arbitrary rulings as this that
create. if not actual disrespect for law,
at least an attitude closely bordering
on it.
81 should say that what was needed
in this case and what seems to nave
been wholly lacking in IT was just
little bit of common horse sense. 1t
wouldn't have taken very much.
CAS- a member of the Senate COM
mittee o immigration, did a great
deal to lip enactment of the present
law and had not little to do with
getting fullest degree.
"But do not want to see trifling
technice tiles applied in cases such as
this-such absurd technicahties weak
en- regard for the law.
'To 'orce this mother and child to
make y euad trip to Europe in or
der 70 r. under q new quota when
tha+ ia actually was open at the
Il. II the ruling is positively silly"
Mrs. Carton. whose husband has de-
clared his intention OF becoming a
United States citizen, returned to Bel
GUM from American several months
ago to bring back their son. She was
told before sailing that there would
be no difficulty about her readmission
if she returned within six months
On their arrival at Ellis Island,
howeper. immigration authorities de-
clared that because the Belgian quota
Of immigrants for the fiscal year 1922
had been exhausted and because they
arrived before the fiscal year 1928 had
quite arrived, they could not be adj
mitted but would have to go back to
Europe and come again.
"Mrs. Carton would have no diff
Guilty in returning if she had come
back alone" it was explained at the
office of Commissioner General Hus-
band, in discussing the basis for the
apparently hair-splitting decision.
"She was entitled to return within
six months and be admitted
"But she returned rs the custodian
of a person who never had been ad-
mitted to the country and who could
not be admitted under the 1922 quota
which was the year of his arrival"

be enforced" is the attitude of inspec-

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
Try United Press.l

Washington. August 10.-Declara-
lions of republican leaders to the
contrary. there are very good rea-
sons for believing that the admins
tration ship subsidy bill--"pet" mea-
sure of President Harding-is dead,
SO far as the present congress is
concerned.
Prospect of congress being called
upon to hurry through legislation Civ
ing the government the power to cope
with the twin rail and coal strikes is
the latest obstacle which has bobbed
I'D in the path of subsidy enactment.
If strike legislation is to be put
through, that completion Of the tariff
will be about all that could be ex-
pected from Capitol hill before the
December adjournment.
But, even if the strikes are set
tied without necessity of action by
congress, it appears virtually GER
tain there will be no vote on the ship
ping measure at this session. Oppo-
sition to the subsidy is growing in
both branches of congress and, as
the result, it was understood today
that a tacit agreement has been
reached between the White House
that there will be no determined
move to secure passage of the bill.
However, contrary to this, Sena-
tor JONES' republican, Washington,
chairman of the Senate Commerce
Committee, today stated emphatical-
" the subsidy measure would be
taken up and passed before Deem
/ ber
Midwest and western house men,
bers, returning to the capital upon
Harding's call, after months re-
cess, are more determined than ever,
set against taking up the subsidy at
this time. They report they found the
people thinking lot about continued
high taxes and in no mood TO favor
proposition that would add any
where from $35,000,000 to $50,000,-
900 a year to the burdens on the fed
eral treasury.
Fate of the subsidy rests largely
with the White House. If, after the
tariff has been put through the Sen
ate. and the House has returned to
duty on August Is, President Hard
ing renews his demand that the
subsidy be considered, the measure
will be taken up, with good chances
for its success. No definite express
sion has been obtained from the,
White House, but the president has
indicated he will not press for action
on the subsidy measure.
East and west coast Congressman
who are back in Washington are still
strong for the subsidy, and are ready
to fight for immediate action on it.
The coast" congressman, however,
are far in the minority, and the ship
ping bill could be passed only with
the votes of members from the in
land sections. The midwest farm
bloc alone could kill the bill in either
the House or Senate.
House members was given a vaea-
ton with the implicitly understand
ing that they would go out to their
districts and help "sell" the ship sub
sidy bill to the country. Instead OF
