determined to appeal the case Of the
Countess Of Cathcart in an effort 10 OBJ
tain \ definite Interpretation Of the
law which excludes aliens who admit
having committed acts involving moral
turpitude
Assistant Secretary Of Labor Husband
declared today that the recent court de-
cision admitting the countess TO this
country after the department Of labor
had denied her entry appears that for
10 years the Immigration authorities
had "misconstrued that provision Of the
law providing for the exclusion Of aliens
who admitted having committed felony
or other act involving moral turpitude."
The countess was allowed TO enter the
United States under a courts ruling
which held that the act complained Of
was committed in South Africa and that
in that country il did not constitute a
crime The whole incident grew out Of
the Countess's elopement several years
ago with the Earl Of Craven.
''Tn excluding considerable numbers of
aliens from the United States" Mr. Hus-
band said. "the authorities have pro-
ceeded upon the belief that in enacting
the law congress intended shat United
States standards. rather than the stand
ards where the prescribed acts were
committed. should determine whether or
not an alien is admissible
However. from the decision in the
