AMERICANS
IRE SUBJECTS
OF SUSPICION
LONDON, Oct. 10.—(By Mail)—
. Becoming an inmate of London an
American has to take the police deep
into his confidence. The searchlight
of suspicion goes into his soul prob
ing its utmost recesses for possible
pro-German sentiments.
He tells them whence he came and
why and how long he has to stay; he
gives his ideas on religion, beer and
the Freudian theory. If he is wear
J ing a four-in-hand tie and the officer
leans to bows he stands a good chance
of being investigated further.
On the other mitt, if the inspector’s
dyspepsia happens to be off-watch,
maybe the arrival is passed.
The first session of the third de- i
gree is staged in Liverpool when the ■
ship warps up to the dock. Stewards
go up and down the decks shooing
the low-lived passengers into the rop
ed-off part of the dining-saloon. Uni
formed gentlemen appear at the ex
its barring the way and the officers
take their places at tables near each
door, with long registration forms on
which to enter the arrival.
Each passenger is given a number,
but the inspector gets it back before
the official razooing is over.
A free-born, star-spangled reporter
from Dallas was a typical victim be
i fore being suffered to land in the
, gloomy old burg.
\ A man called his number, the erst
i while passenger stepped forward with
a deep genuflection and weighty mis
■ givings. He showed his hand, a pass
port, and some kindred documents.
The inspector showed nothing but sus
picion.
“Ever been in Europe before?”
asked the official.
“Never.”
“Never?”
“No, not ever.”
“Then why are you coining here
now?”
“To work.”
“Work?”
“Yes, work.”
“When were you in Europe last?”
“I was never in Europe last.”
“Not last?”
“Yes, not last.”
This is very adroit cross-examina
tion, sure to trap anyone trying to
slip anything over.
The inspector looks the inspectee
square in the eye while he’s talking,
seeming to say “come out from be
hind that bush. I see you.”
Then he passes the candidate or
sends him back to New York on the
same ship.
Except for a few distinctive wrin
kles of inquiry the London police du
plicate the process. They want to
know where you are going to live
and how long and why you chose that
place. And you’d better tell them.
It all goes down in the book in the
closest system of surveillance in the
world.
With his documents the immigrant
is free; not as the birds of the air but
with the alloyed freedom of a lifer
in an honor camp. He may roam
the streets in comparative safety,
showing his papers whenever he’s
tackled by recruiting agents.
That word, “comparative”—that’s
the right word, in a place where the
li diiic i uico wcic ucm^ucu uy tx auuui*
paw.
In London taxis and buses, big,
grunting “caterpillars” locomotives
and push carts go prowling along the
left hand curbs. The party from
Denver has 50 hair-raising jumps a
day to avoid being bumped in the ra
diator, until he gets used to the
game.
By that time he is doubly protected.
He has crowled into an English suit,
with cylindrical pants and cloth
covered buttons, which feels like a
load of coal; he doesn’t brush his hat
any more and wears a half-inch collar
nine sizes too large for his 14% neck;
he smokes a hay-burner and looks like
a native.
It is contrary to public policy to run
over natives.
This is the process of busting in.
