Forsyth to stand trial on perjury charge
Abraham Forsyth was examined by United States Commissioner Fiske and held on $2000 bonds for the federal grand jury on perjury charges. A search found evidence he acted as agent for Liverpool-based operators forwarding aliens, with five Russian passports and letters mentioning other ports. Immigration officials see the case as significant amid detention of over 20 Italian and Greek boys aged six to twelve on the Romanic arrival. A special board hearing identified dubious relatives, and many youths face deportation.
