Now he is going back to Sweden, get his| proper entry arranged, and come back to Alaska again, as a citizen of Sweden. Curley Carlson has become one of the most popular young fisher-| men in Sootheastern .Alaska since he came to the country in 1926. He arrived in the United States| as a sailor in 1924, His ship en- tered this country at Port Allen, . A gon. There the crew was exam- ined by doctors. No questions were asked regarding citizenship. The crew was allowed to go ashore— and Curley left the ship at Port- land Citizenship Not Questioned Two years later he came to Al-| aska. No one had ever questioned his citizenship, and. Curley didn't know that he had no right to be in the United States. He made many friends here, and prospered as a fisherman. Two years ago he went from Ketchikan to Prince Ru- ! pert_aboard a halibut boat, and when the boat re-entered the Unit- ed States, at Ketchikan asked the usual ques- tions, and Curley and the authori-| ties found out that Curley had no status here at all either as a citi- zen of Sweden, or of the United States. It has taken many months to get things straightened out, and now Carlson is going back to Swe- den again, and will be allowed to enter this country legally as soon as he returns with the proper pass- ports.
