CHAPTER XIII.
STRUGGLE BEGINS.

IY ICE, with an eye to dramatic
effect, made the announce
/ ment proclamation. Judith,
IL a gay Columbine, was in the
act Of twirling in Slim San
ford's arms to show Norman and
Poppy Neville (their new next-door
neighbors) how "swalestep" should
be executed.
Judith paused and stood breathless
as the servant swung back the drapes,
held up a yellow-palmed hand and
said: Mass Bevins Is dead. He
dropped daid 10 minutes ago. Miss
Matilda, she say Mass Norman Is to
come to hur, soon's he kin git there. "
Braced against Sanford's support
ing arm, Judith wondered which pain
was the sharper, the fierce throb Of
jealousy at Mathile's command or the
shock of her beloved old friends
death.
Norman waited only long enough
to change clothes then with a hur-
ried kiss to the now dropping Colum-
bine, rushed for his car. The guests
left, all but the Sanfords. ella, tax
ing Judith to her room, seemed on
the verge of saying something several
times only to stop, light fresh ciga-
rette, and dash 1t out in the nearest
ash tray.
III call my Office" she said at
length, and went downstairs.
Judith stared into the mirror.
Methodically she removed paint and
powder with fresh tissue, folded each
piece carefully and tossed them into
their basket.
Dead" she thought vaguely, "he's
dead, Big Tom"
Il should feel something" she said
aloud to the white-faced girl IN the
mirror. II really should, but I don't

with entering the United States from
Canada illegally. A warrant for their
arrest was issued and they were taken
to the Wayne County Jail where they
were photographed. The boys photo
graph appears in official criminal
records, No. 20390.
William Serniuk, the father. was
born in Austria and was left behind
when his family emigrated to Can
ada. When he was 18 he rejoined
them there. Later he went to the
United States for a few years and
returned to marry native Canadian.
Soon after his marriage, he again
came to the United States, saying he
intended to make only short visit.
His wife remained in Canada to await
the birth of a child. The following
year she brought the baby-Lawrence
to the home which her husband
had provided for them in Detroit.
She, too, got across the border with
out a visa. but later returned to Can
ada, paid her head tax and was regu-
larly admitted. She has testified she
was advised it was not necessary to
take similar steps for her child. I'm
fortunately, this was not true.
But more troubles beside mere de-
portation await Serniuk and his
child. His native community in Aus
tria is now part of Rumania. Even
the language has changed. Actually
he will find himself more of for
eigner than he is here. Mrs. Serniuk
could accompany her son to Canada,
but would have to start life all over
again as wage Garner.
Sisters Face Orphan Asylum.
The immigration files are replete
with Canadian cases, but none creates
more sympathy than that Of Annie
and Catherine Bonavetz, aged 9 and
10. They are to be taken from the
loving care of foster parents, from
school and playmates and thrust
across the Canadian border to be
lodged in an orphan asylum.
At the age of 3 and 2, through no
fault of theirs, they entered this
country illegally. They were brought
in by a distracted mother, without
means of support. who was seeking a
husband who had deserted his family
and gone to,the United States. One
year after coming to this country the
mother died and their father placed
the children in the care of Joseph
Begich, the wifes uncle.
AnnieS and GATHERINGS apprehen-
sion came about as result Of the
arrest of their father Bonavatz for
minor infraction Of the law. The
immigration Service looked into his
status. The husband was subsequent
not to Canada, but to Yugoslavia. And
the illegal status Of the children was
discovered.
Vehement protests against the de-
portation of the two little girls to
Canada have been made by friends
and neighbors in Lebanon, Pa. Their
foster father said: MY wife and I
feel toward them as If they were our
own children, and they call us father
and mother, and this is their home.
We would like to legally adopt them
and have intended to do So"
Promise Brings Tragedy.
A promise to his dying wife to take
her body back to Germany will result
in the deportation Of Johannes
Hiensch, Greenwich, Conn., and sep
aration from his second-wife and
newborn daughter.
This tragedy came about through q
little known eccentricity Of present
immigration laws which provides that
Evening star., 1934-05-13

that for all the women Of wealth In
the State who might be Influenced
there are many more women Of no
means or moderate means who will
resent the kissing.
Six Of 16 Withdraw.
After all, the big stake in this State
is not the United States senatorship.
but the governorship. There were 10
candidates in the field for the Re-
publican nomination originally, which
shows how shot to pieces the Repub-
lican organization has been. Six have
withdrawn Of the ten left. William A.
Schnader has the backing Of the Re
publican organization, State and city.
While he insists that he has not
hooked up with either Of the sena-
torial candidates, 1t is known that in
many of the marked ballots sent out
Schnader has been coupled IN the
State with Reed, and in others he has
been coupled with Pinchot. The Re-
publicans generally have decided that
he is their best bet for Governor IN
the November election, which they
are most anxious to win. One thing
that is hurting Reed Is the frank at
titude of some Republicans that. with
Democratic administration IN wash
ington, it does not matter who Is
Senator.
Schnader's principal opponents are
Maj. Gen. Edward C. Shannon. pres
ent Lieutenant Governor; Charles j.
Margiotti of Pittsburgh and Thomas
w. Phillips, jr., former member Of
the House and a leading wet in the
days of prohibition. Efforts Of the
Schnader opposition to unite on a
candidate have so far proved ineffec-
tive and it looks as though Schnader
would go over with a bang. though
Gen. Shannon claims he will win.
This gubernatorial contest Is not
without its funny side. For example
there is Tilghman e. Hauseman OF
South Pottstown, who has been a
butcher. He insists that a man
learns a lot about what folks want
behind the counter" He owns no
automobile and boasts Of 1t. Another
candidate for Governor Is Louis G.
Karzis, a veteran with one leg. HIS
name comes first on the ballot and
from that lucky position he expects
to roll up perhaps $4,000 votes.
Liquor Issue Is Out.
The Democrats have almost as Bit
ter dissensions in their ranks as have
the Republicans.
The Guffey-Earle slate, barring
last-minute upsets, which are not
likely, Is expected to win. The wet
and dry issue, which has complicated
elections in Pennsylvania for SO many
years, seems to be out this year. Pin
chot was an ardent dry, but tnat
seems to have been forgotten.
The State liquor stores, which have
stocked up with $20,000,000 worth OF
