CANADA Te Jo, Dd a5 th Earopeas Ini gruts ur Evmiation, New York, July 16.--Caught in the tolls 'of governmental red tape, twelve British tourists, most of them women, visited Ellis Island Monday, and emerged with their esteem for America badly damaged. Just who was responsible for the imbroglio is. uncertain. The tour- ists blame the immigration depart- ment; the immigration department puts the responsibility on Canada, and the Cunard Line says it was all a misunderstanding of the definition of the teym "tourist third class." The twelve arriving on the Cun- ard liner Tuscania were held up after other tourist third -class pass- engers had land®d. They said the im- migration inspectors who examined them were "most insulting." but As- sistant Immigration Commiésioner Uhle denied this, and insisted they were treated as all other third-class passengers are. They were told they would have to go to Ellis Island. "But," protested Mrs. Mary Me- Neill, of Liverpool, "we asked the American consul at Liverpool if we would 'be detained, and he said, 'You'll pever see Ellis Island." Nevertheless they were held on the' Tuscania from 10.30 in the morning until 2.30, when they 8 to the island.
