(Original Caption) An employee who had worked for the U. S. Immigration Service for 30 years waves goodbye to Ellis Island, as the last ferry pulled out November 12th. The tiny island in New York Harbor, for 62 years the vestibule of the nation for "the tired, the poor, the huddled masses" of the world, was closed November 12, 1954.
