March 24 County Judge Lewis J. Smith was irot shocked when he looked upon the picture of Norma Mayo of Oyster Bay in a bathing suit, and so he reversed a decision of Justice of the Peace Udward J. Deusy of Glen Cove, who held Norma guilty of violating a village ordinance in Bayville. Norma was given a summons by Daniel W. Davis, a peace officer employed by the Village of Bayville.

when she appeared off the beach i in a bathing suit, that, he alleged, was wet. "and clung to her body." i Norma was one of a number of per sons "picked up" by the Bayville officer. She explained before Justice Deasy that she was properly clad, and was on her way home from the beach, her home being several hundred feet away from the Sound. Philip Huntington, who succeeded l-Idward J. Deasy as Justice of the Peace, appeared in the role of champion for Norma, who is 17 and is employed in Hie tl rin of Nelson Doubleduy, at Oyster Kay.

In his decision. Judge Smith says: "There is no proof that the bathing suit she wore is not of proper proportions. The Village of Bayville makes no specific charge which amounts to an imputation that, the defendant was lacking in her sense of modesty, and unless the evidence sustains that imputation the young lady should not be burdened with such odium."

The effect of all this on Americans traveling abroad has been unfortunate. Several European countries have raised their visa charges to $10 for Americans, as deliberate reprisal, for the high American charge. Officials of tliese governments are not at all concerned with the intricacies o'' American domestic legislation that have tied this Government's passport regulations into a hard knot.

They simply know that fheir own nationals are charged $10 for an American visa, and it seems natural and fair enough for them to charge Americans the same amount. The following countries have raised their visa charge to $10 as a reprisal: Austria, Belgian Congo, British Empire, Penmark, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Norway. Palestine, Poland, Portugal, Madeira, Serbia, Spain. Thus if an American business man finds it necessary to make a trip to the chief capitals of Europe, he will have to add $50 or $G0 to the cost of his Journey for visas alone, in addition to the original charge of $10 for his American passport. Persons mak-irg the grand tour must spend as much on visas as flrst-clnss trans-Atlantic passage used to cost before the a r.

No figures are available at. prrs-it nn the total sums collected by til i Government under the $10 visa and nassport charge, but the amount is known to run well over a million dollars. This money is earned in sense by the Department of State and its agents, but as It is not turned over to the Department, it has not. had the effect, of increasing the annual appropriation by Congress for the State Department, and it has simply gone to swell the total revenues of the Government. Critics of the present system who have protested have taken the position that any reputable American citzen is entitled to a passport and that the charge for this should not be in excess of the actual cost of labor involved, which is known to be well under $10.

Matter to Congress. Officials of the Department of State have been giving the whole question the most serious attention, but they are powerless to act unless Congress will pass the necessary legislation. At least one Europe-un government has informally approached this Government with a tentative proposition for mutual abolition of all passport restrictions, but the State Pnartment Is in no position to act, officials point out. The passport and visa system as at present administered in connection with the restrictive immigration law upnears to be a vicious circle. The charge for issuing an American passport and the charge for an American official for visaing a foreign passport are two separate matters.

The $10 charge for the passport itself could be lowered without affecting American control of immigration through the visa system. Officials believe that the visa system must be preserved until someone has devised another method of controlling immigration. As long as visas are required there must be passports. This Oov-vernment will probably continue therefore to require passports of all Incoming aliens, and most European countries will in return require passports of Americans. Until th- law is been changed American are bound to continue the visa charge, and Americans abroad will continue to experience the $10 reprisal charge.

The one hope in the situation, in the opinion of officials who are not defending the present system, is for Congress to take action. far as can he learned, there is no immediate prospect of ch-nge.

clsm is being made to btlicials of the Department of State and members of Congress on the subject of American pussport and visa regulations, which the indirect result of involving I American business men and tourisU I traveling in liuropc in Irritating ele-j lays and masses of red tape, to say nothing of considerable items of adrii-I uuuai CAytnsc. The incredible prewar days when passports were unheurd of except in Russia seem gone forever. Today an American passport, which is essential, costs $10, and another $50 for visa charges can be piled up without effort if one attempts to visit the chief countries of Western Europe. The United States Government It-self does not require Americans proceeding abroad to take an American passport with them. None is needed to leave this country, but practically all European countries require evidence of nationality, so a passport is actually very much needed.

How the Cost Mounts Tin charge made by this Government for executing a passport for one of its eltzcns is $1. The passport ilseli costs uu, making the total charge $10. To this may be added the sometimes considerable cost of obtaining documentary evidence of birth, citizenship, and abject of trip, with the odd dollar thrown in for necessary photographs of the applicant. Sonic of the objections voiced to Government officials ocrur at this point, ns, for Instance, when a high executive in some large corporation is asked to furnish documentary evidence that his statements are accurate. There is, of course, no reason why a big business man should consider himself exempt from the operations of the law, and there is every reason why American passports should not be handed out like rain checks to all comers.

Nevertheless, the necessity for furnishing various sorts of documentary evidence does sometimes cause- a good deal of irritation. L'ntil 1900 vei-y few vital records kept in the United States, except nerhaps in the New England States. Since 1900, and more especially since census of 1910, most States maintain elaborate vital records. If the passport, leguhitions endure and there is no immediate prospect of change the younger generation will have no such difficulties securing their documentary evidence as have some of the middle-aged persons who have decided to leave for Europe suddenly, only to find themselves to produce a birth or even a baptismal certificate. Passport IJkc a Motorcar.

So much for the cost and difficulties of securing the passport Itself. This is the merest beginning of one's troubles. A passport is like a motorcar: the initial cost is nothing compared with the upkeep. Ami the high cost of upkeep Is in this case the result of retaliatory measures by various European countries against the Hat American consular charge of $10 for putting a visa on the passports of aliens de-ulring to proceed to tills country. The cost of an American visa is tlxed by statute, and it does not He within the province or power of the Department of State or its agents to-make a reduction.

The visa system is necessitated by the operation of the ImmiKration act, as it serves to provide an indirect control of i atnigra-tion at its source. All aliens entering the United States whose journey begins ill countries other than those contiguous to this country must have passports, and each passport must bear the visa of an American con-s ilar official. The charge set by law for this visa is now $10. This charge eruld not be relaxed in favor of one European country without equal relaxation in the case of all others. How Ylsos Are Limited.

The Department of State, acting in collaboration with the Department of Labor, transmits at regular intervals to American consular officers abroad the number of immigrants from each country who may be admitted in any one onth, the annual quota being thus distributed on a pro rata basis. Visas are not granted in excess of this quota. Various -difficulties have naturally been encountered in working out the operation of- the so-called 3 percent restrictive immigration statute, but it is claimed that the visa system is vital in preventing large numbers of would-be immigrants from arriving at Ellis It'and, only to be turned away because the quota of permissible admis If You Know Anyone Who Suffers From Constipation READ THIS NOW!
