When a Law Goes Wrong.

On the high seas this week an Amer
ican-born World War veteran, with one
leg full of shrapnel splinters. is en- route
to England as a deportee from his
native land He is George Young, thir-
ty-three years Of age and native OF
Arctic, R. I. Young was expelled from
the country of his birth last Saturday
for violation of the American immigra-
ton laws. His offense consisted of an
attempt to enter the United States as
an American citizen. when, in fact, he
had become a British subject fourteen
years ago.
The young Rhode Islander, finding
himself in London in 1915, the year the
Lusitania was sunk, yielded to the lure
of patriotic adventure, and, not being
too proud to fight, Joined the British
Army. He served with the Kings colors
until 1920. Until incapacitated by
wounds, Young fought through the
bloody battle Of the Sonne. After a
long siege In hospital, he returned to
the front and saw things through with
Britain's other Britlings in khaki and
trench mud.
Meantime his mother and brother in
Bridgeport, Conn, scraped enough mon
ely together to send for the long-lost
warrior kinsman, now a victim OF
chronic unemployment in the British
Isles. Young arrived in New York or
February 81. On production Of papers
showing his nativity in Rhode Island
he had had no difficulty in obtaining q
steamship ticket at Liverpool, and, pre-
sumably, the requisite American con-

America, that he had become subject
of Great Britain.

some later famous stars Of the stage.
On Harry Miners boards first appeared,
with promise of future celebrity, such
as Weber and Fields, Irving Berlin, Sam
Bernard, the parents of George NJ.
Cohan and George himself, May and
Flo Irwin, Maggie Cline. Fred Proctor,
Tony Pastor-later a producer and
theater owner of fame-Pat Rooney,
william Muldoon and Barney Pagan.
There were many others, OF course; men
and women who achieved the distinc-
ton of top-line announcement on the
boards of variety and vaudeville houses
and some in the legitimate drama.

vided at Miners Bowery Theater, and
elsewhere in the houses of the same
class and range. And 1t was not ex-
pensive. The top price was seventy

scale running down to dime. In those
-Volstead days there was a briskly
active bar in lower story and walters
went about on the orchestra floor with
trays, taking and serving orders. At
later stage the bar feature was modi-
fed. The character of the program

rather than. variety"
Recently vaudeville has changed and
there are signs that 1t may pass into
the role Of mere accompaniment of mo-
ton pictures, in the course of "produc-
tons" which are a melange of music,
dancing and monologue, all on abbrevi-
ated scale. This change has been re-
uined by many patrons of the theater,
who hope that the tabloid form of
miscellaneous entertainment may again
come into vogue. Just at present the
tendency is to revive the old heavy
dramatic works that were popular
thirty and forty years ago. Perhaps
the vaudevillian. himself developed from
the variety show such as that which
f1ourished at Miners half century
back, will in turn reappear. with better
turns and livelier songs and more anus

Hurdy.Curdy Called
Help to JOYS of Living

From the Albany Evening News.
So Al Smith has hurdy-gurdy in
his suite at the Biltmore. 1t has been
grinding out the old tunes. silver

and the like. and now it has been sent
back to the factory to get some new
rolls with other tunes. All, we'll, we
have sympathy with the former gov
ernor! We can understand Just what
prompted him to install that hurdy-
gurdy. There's hurdy-gurdy complex
in all of us.
When 1t Is Spring and the hurdy-
gurdy man plays under the window our
heart goes pitty-patting with the beat
of the old counting days and our feet
tap merrily and our thoughts are as
far away as those of Maud Muller's
judge. We get all dreamy-eyed and
our soul warns up and we are as PEN
sive as maiden thinking about her
lover. Why, any hurdy-gurdy man
could get a nickel out Of us then and
we'd even subscribe to fund for the
amelioration, OF the circumstances of
homeless cats.
We never thought that our AL would
be hurdy-gurdy man, but we envy
him. Never in our long life have We
had enough of hurdy-gurdy. The man
always goes away too soon. And some
times we have thought we'd like to be
rich enough to have hurdy-gurdy of
our own.
We can imagine the feeling of COM
plete satisfaction that AL Smith has
when he sits there and listens to the
old tunes. Surely this is life to the full.
When the warm winds of late March
blow April softly in and the hurdy-
gurdy grinds on. life is sweet and chock-
full of memories and 1t moves on dane
ing feet and there's Tilt in the heart.
All, yes, we can see the former gov
ernor's cigar rising and falling like a
baton, directing the hurdy-gurdy! We
remember now that he said II he could
get back that monkey that was in the

Millions Of Americans will agree with
George Young. immigration laws, like

evaded. Their proper enforcement is
specifically in President Hoover's mind
in connection with the board of inquiry
he is about to set up. But 1t is seriously
to be doubted whether the President, or
any other American inbued with an
elementary sense of fair play. wants
deportation Of "aliens" under the cir
cumstances which have sent George
Young back to Britain.
What about the tens of thousands of
red-blooded Americans who joined the
Canadian Army in 1914, 1915 and 1916?
What about the splendid young Ameri-
cans who fought for France in those
years-men OF the type of Allen Seeger,
to whom the French have reared
statue in the Place d'Etats Unis. at
Paris? Were those Of them who lived
to tell the glorious tale and who ven-
tured to return to their own country
penalized as this Rhode Islander has
been? If they were, their myriad cases
escaped public notice. Their offense
was identical, for they. too, must have,
for fighting purposes, sworn allegiance
to the countries in whose defense they
barred their American breasts.
President Hoover would strike blow
for common sense Interpretation of
the immigration laws by ordering the
shackles of red tape taken from George
Young at Liverpool and his return to
the United States as a free-born Amer
lean citizen by the first ship that can
bring him. Such action would be an
indication that Hoover law enforcement
means law enforcement tinctured with
intelligence and discrimination.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN.

@. Why does the eclipse OF the sun,
when seen through steam, look red?--
L. L.
A. When light passes through a me-
dunn containing numerous small parti-
cles certain proportion of the light
is scattered sideways by these particles
and the shorter the wave length the
greater will be the scattering The
blue light is, therefore. scattered TO a
much greater extent than the red light.
The light as it travels onward is thus
gradually robbed of its blue portion and
will appear red. This effect is readily
seen by looking at street lamp from a
short distance in a fog.
@. Does the mahogany tree have
blossoms?-C. e.
A. It bears panicles Of small white OF
yellowish flowers that sometimes turn
reddish.

top. formerly much used in breweries
and distilleries, is known as Jacobs
ladder
@. What is a papal bull?-T. r.
A. This Is papal letter sealed with

been dated by the civil calendar. Prior
to this they were written on rough
parchment and dated "a die Incarna-
tionis" C'from the day of the incar-
