MY Darling Tillie:
II hope this reaches you in
Manitoba for I am a little con-
fused regarding your itinerary.
understand you to say that you
would arrive in Hamilton around
August Is but then I thought you
told me you were leaving Ashville
on the thirteenth and would spend
Ia few days in Winnipeg.
In any event I am certain it
will catch up to you somewhere.
thought you said you were staying
at the Royal Arms (they are mine,
nothing wrong with my ego) but
when checked my hotel register
there was no such place listed.
Perhaps the connection was poorer
than I thought.
Il got in yesterday. having spent
a little more time in Washington
than I anticipated. I didn't finish
so will have to be back tomorrow
That should clean it up for the
time being, however. and we ex-
pect to negotiate the contract in
New York on Tuesday. August 10.
"Sure do miss you, my sweet
heart. Even though have been
very busy. the days pass slowly
and the nights seem to stand still
particularly when I 60 to bed and
think of you. I do think of you
a lot and realize just how much
I do miss you. I don't have to be
lonely to realize how very much I
love you.
Looking back, it seems like an
eternity since I last saw you but
looking ahead it seems much
longer although in reality you will
be home in less than three weeks.
Il have done much thinking
and praying for us and seem to

The third letter, to Miss
Misibrocky in Canada, Was post
marked NetD York, N. Y, August
18, 1852. and read:
MY Dearest Tillie:
"Since I last saw you I have
received two wonderful letters
from an equally wonderful young
lady, in fact she is a darling.
II am certain that I did quite
understand all that you told me
when we talked by phone. II
seems that you told me your
brother was there and you men
toned Hamilton but I did not
realize that he was the one you
were going to visit.
Il suppose it is better for you
because you can spend a little
more time at home. I was happy
to hear that you didn't have to
break your trip up the way you
thought would be necessary.
by the time you receive this ]
suppose you will have had time to
tell your dad about your romance
with Grammer.' Cant even spell
my name right-you'll have to do
better. I do hope that your talk
with him brings the response and
feeling you want it to bring.
"You are in my thought very
my darling, and I can see
you quite clearly. Perhaps you
will recall when I told you of the

August 4. The letters were put
into the evidence.
The girl admitted she and
Grammer lived as man and wife
at the Chicago hotel from July Is
to August 4.
After that, she said, Grammer
departed for Denver, Colo, on a
business trip for his firm, while
she went to Canada to discuss
their planned marriage with her
father.
Grammer remained seated
quietly during most of the trial,
with his hands folded in front of
him and his eyes downcast. Yes
terday, however, he was within a
few feet of Miss Mizibrocky, and
he watched her intently while she
was on the stand. She didn't look
Iat Grammer as she told of their
love affair.
Miss Mizibrocky was asked if
she had ever telephoned Grammer
lat his apartment in the Bronx.
,Grammer had lived there with his
wife and three young children un-
til his family left for Baltimore
last June at the completion of
the school year to stay with Mrs.
Granlmer's mother. Grammer's
mother-in-law recently had lost
her husband and her daughter
wished to be with her for several
months.
Never Gave Residence Phone.
Miss Mizibrocky explained
Grammer never gave her his resi-
dence phone and she presumed
that he had been living in a ROOM
ing house.
The judge asked if she con-
Isidered herself engaged to Gram
mer during this period.
There was no question that
was his girl" Miss Mizibrocky re-
piled. She said their discussions
|of marriage had been rather
casual at first, but that he knew
she was serious.
The judged asked if Grammer
had made specific mention of
marriage while they were in Chi
cago. The witness replied that he
once said he would like to have
Ia band like Tommy Dorsey's play
lat their wedding. Miss Mizibrocky
also said Grammer told her the
next time she went to Canada to
see her family, he would go with
her.
Religious Difficulty.
The witness told how they dis
cussed the religious difficulty of
their getting married. She ex-
planned she was a Catholic and
that Grammer followed the Pro-
tesla - - + on the subject of
marriage. :
would " have married him
outside the C.+holic church,"

mo, but I was certain that Ed
would see the thing my way" she
replied.
Defense counsel asked the wit
ness if she considered Grammer
merely friend.
I'VE were more than good
friends at that time" she said
Under questioning, she added, that
she had made no effort to check
on Grammer because she trusted
him thoroughly.
IF you had known he was a
married man. would you have kept
company with him?" asked Mr..
FREDERICK.
II would not" Miss Mizibrocky
replied.
The defense counsel then wanted
to know why she went to Chicago
with Grammer when she must
have known this was wrong. She

WASHINGTON, D. c., May %
(JACL ADC)-In a his, oric move.
the Senate passed by a voice vote
after two weeks of debate. the ia
CT ADC-indorsed Walter McCar-
ran Omnibus immigration and Ma
turalization Bill in its night session
last Friday, the WASHINGTON office
of the JACL discrimination
Committee reported today.
The enactment of legislation e.
raising the racial restrictions in exis-
ting immigration and naturalization
laws has been the number one legis-
lative objective of the JACL Ado
since the end of World War II.
During the Congressional debate on
the Walter McCarran bill JACL
ADO has been recognized by both
the proponents and opponents of
the measure as the leading organi-
zation urging equality in immiera-
ton and naturalization.
For the first time in American
history, a measure providing equal
ity of treatment for all persons of
Japanese ancestry in immigration
and naturalization has passed both
Houses of Congress. The Walter
McCarran legislation formally re-
peals the japanese Exclusion Act of
1924.
