continued to write and to speak and
to proselyte among those whom he
could meet He was happy rendering
service, denouncing Bolshevism..
Then one day blow fell. Morris
Gordin was taken up by officers of the
law, charged with being an illegal en-
trant, subject to deportation.
There are literally thousands of il
legal entrants in the United States
and nothing can be done about it. But
much has been done about this one
man.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1927-08-19

Morris Gordin was tried in Chicago
and the trial board ruled that he was
an illegal entrant, subject to depor-
tation. Appeal was taken to Wash
ington, where, in the Department of
Labor, presided over by James J.
Davis, an appeal board heard an APP
peal, joined in by number of Amer
leans who believed that Morris Gordin
is an Asset to America and Amer
canism
Gordin was soldier in the Ameri-
can army. There is a law, which ex-
pires in July, giving ex-soldiers GER
tain preferences in securing citizen
ship,
Gordin wanted to become a citizen.
He and his friends pleaded that he
be allowed to leave the country so that
he might re-enter under his own name
and seek citizenship. This met siren
uous objection at first, but finally
after long delay, such as government
departments sometimes delight in, a
decision was rendered, holding Morris
Gordin an illegal entrant. But he was
to be allowed to depart and re-enter,
| if he could arrange to do so. But a
few days remained before the death
of the law under which this might be
done. An earlier decision would have
given ample time.

tanks in 48 hours. Before this time
the Harte No. 2 has been making $50
barrels a day When asked the rea-
son for this increase in production
M. E. Porter, president Of the compa-

en- up trying to find the cause. He
was certain, however, that he hoped
it would continue the increased pro
