Italian mother of an American soldier killed in France. who was being held there following her attempt to re- enter this country. It was declared by the immigration inspectors that she had become insane when notified of her sons death, and although now fully recovered they held that she might become public charge.

Following an in vestigation by the department of labor the clause of the law requiring that five years must elapse before an insane person may be admitted and that sanity must be proved was waived. She was ordered released on s2soo0 bond.
