He dejectedly told his story last
night over a cup of coffee in the
small mcssroom of the Trojan Sea
man. It all started with a mistake,
a bad mistake I made," he said,
i "I came over here in 1922 from
Czechoslovakia and jumped ship.
I worked as a machinist in New
York for a long time before I
took out my first naturalization
papers.
' But I was scared. Scared to
get my second papers and try to
become a citizen because 1 thought
I might get deported.
"So, I did nothing. Now, look
where I am."
Slanina, born tin a part of Aus
tria that later became a section of
Czechoslovakia, fought with the
Austrian army in World War I.
He deserted to join the anti-Bolshevik
Czechoslovak Legion, which
was caucht un in the nmeian
nlution. He ended up in Vladivos-'
tok. I
In 1920, ho returned to his home-1
land, was a minor government of

later shipped to America as a
merchant seaman. I
He returned to the sea in 1942,
when merchant seamen were need
ed in the World War II effort be
cause, "it was sort of a patriotic
thing," he said.
With a passport renewable each
year from the Czech consulate in
New York, Slanina said he was
told he could get his citizenship
if he spent five years actual sail
ing time on American ships.
AU went well until the postwar
rise of a Red government in
Czechoslovakia. The consulate
which issued his papers was closed
and the passport became invalid.
American immigration officials
told Slanina he still had seven
months sailing time to go before
he could become a candidate for
citizenship.
He got a temporary document,
"in lieu of passport" and in early
December 1952 shipped out with,
the Trojan Seaman. .
Then the McCarran Immigra
tion laws became effective, and
Slanina, without a valid visa or
passport, was refused re-entry.
