For the relief of Mrs. Augusta Selmer-Andersen.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of American Congress assembled,
That the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized and directed to pay, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, to Mrs. Augusta Selmer-Andersen, of Seattle, Washington, the sum of $500. The payment of such sum shall be in full settlement of all claims of the said Mrs. Augusta Selmer-Andersen against the United States arising when a departure bond deposited by her on behalf of her adopted daughter Bjorg Wennberg Iverson was forfeited even though the daughter has been granted a suspension of deportation. No part of the amount appropriated in this Act shall be paid or delivered to or received by any agent or attorney on account of services rendered in connection with this claim, and the same shall be unlawful, any contract to the contrary notwithstanding. Any person violating the provisions of this Act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be fined in any sum not exceeding $1,000.
