(By Alexander Herman)
New York, . Aug. 5. To cover
. the hundred yards from the de
tention room here to the New
York ferry, a young Belgian wo
man and her eight-year-old son
have been forced to take an extra
6000-mile trip to Europe and back
All because they arrived three
and a half hours ahead of sched
ule! -
And the Im'migratlon author!
ties could find no way of cutting
the red tape which barred them!
So another chapter of sorrow
was added to the tragedy of
young family which had been rent
apart in the aftermath of the war.
With his business wiped out by
war Remi Carton left Belgian
came to this country and settled in
Chicago. He declared his inten
tion of becoming a citizen of the
United States.
His wife came with him. But
they had to leave their boy behind
with relatives.
They worked hard and prosper
ed. When they had (2000 in the
family bank account, they decided
to get their boy
Goes for Son
Mrs. Carton went for him. Be
ing a resident of this country, she
knew she could be readmitted here
without trouble. - But she didn't
know about the restrictions gov
erning the admittance of her son
She- started to return in June.
The Belgian immigration quota
for the fiscal year ending June 30
naa been mied.
Mrs. Carton was advised . to
postpone her return until the next
sailing. This ship was not due in
New York until July 1.
But the boat was fast and the
weather good so the mother and
boy reached port several hours be
fore they expected. The authori
ties decided that the youngster
could be admitted for the quota
had been mied.
But couldn't they forget that
he arrived three and one-half hours
too soon and consider him as a July
arrival? The mother argued with
officials.
. Case Goes to Washington
' They took it up with the immi
gration inspectors. The case was
carried to a board of review in
Washington. A month went by.
The boy had to go back. He
could return on the same boat and
apply for admission under the new
quota but he had to go back.
; "It s hard to be so near and
yet so far," sighed Mrs, Carton
when she heard the final derision
"I can't understand a law that
makes us travel thousands of miles
to come back to the same place a
little later.
"But I suppose that it can't be
. helped. I'm going with my son. I
won't let him travel alone. The
sooner we go, the quicker we re
turn." ,.
So she packed up, took the fast
est boat out and expects to soon
to come back. Today she is at
sea.
But if the return trip is delayed
and Belgium's quota of 313 a
month ' is -filled before they reach
port again they may have to make
the trip across a third timet
"On the 28th of last month,"
ays. Harry R. Lvidis assistant
commissioner of immigration here,
"there were only 25 Belgians ad
missable before the allotment was
filled.
"So Mrs. Carton and her son
would better hurry back."

methods of opening desirable po

women so that they will not of
necessity ua drawn off into other
fields," Rev. Southard said.
The sessions will be onen to lav
men and clergy, it was stated.
Credit was given to the Soeletv
of Friends (Quakers) for what was
wrmwi i advanced position on
sex equality, by Rev. Southard in
discussing the progress of women
in the various religious denomina
tions.
The Society of Friends, which
arose in England almost three hun
dred years ago took the amazing
stand that there should be sex
equality." she said. "No church has
had so large a proportion of
preaching women. Women were
the first Friends preachers in Lon
don, uxford, Cambridge and in
America. They were amone the
early martyra of the church. Per
haps we owe woman suffrage in
directly to the Friends. Susan B
Anthony was reared in the tenets
of. that church . and. accustomed to
freedom of women. When found
that in educational and even tem
perance meetings women were sup
posed to 'keep silence' her wrath
was aroused and the end was the
Susan B.- Anthony amendment.
"The Disciples of Christ and the
Christian church, with headquart
ers at Dayton, -Ohio, has always
given opportunity for women to
preach. Some of its women were
preaching and holding remarkable
revivals in pre-revolutionary days.
"interest attaches to the Meth
odist Protestant church in this
matter because it was to this
church that Ann Shaw went for
ordination when the Methodist
Episcopal church refused her li
cense. After a stormy controversy
she was ordained by the New York
conference. In 1884 their general
conference held this action uncon
stitutional. But in this the states
have- a considerable measure of
authority. Some went on and or
dained women, some objecting. The
climax came when in 1892 the Rev.
Eugenia St. John was sent as a
ministerial delegate from Kansas.
and two women lay delegated with
her. There was a sharp division
over seating these women in the
general conference in which' the
women won out In 1900 Dr. Lee
Anna Starr was seated, as a min
isterial delegate and asked to
preach before the whole general
conference; A lew conferences still
refuse to ordain women but in most
cases they have equal rights.
"The Salvation Army recoirnized
sex equality from the very begin

Catherine Booth, were both great

that no women be permitted to do

with a "large black jack oak," and
the bodies were terribly bruised
from the licks.
According to Sheriff Blue the
guards were robbed of their pis

It was at first reported that one
of the men would probably die
from injuries sustained at the
hands of the masked men but these
reports proved untrue.
No arrests have been made.
