Most likely Passenger Record for Joseph Kraus - see Yosef Kraus:

Kamienka, in Hungarian Kövesfalva was a Ruthenian settlement in the Szepes (in Slovakian Spi¹, in German Zips) County of the Kingdom of Hungary to 1918/1920 (Declaration of Martin / Treaty of Trianon). 1920-1938 part of Czechoslovakia, 1939-1945 part of Slovakia, and 1945-1992 part of Czechoslovakia. The village lost its Ruthenian settlers. The flag, published in Heraldický Register Slovenskej Republiky - I (2000) for Kamienka (Humenné district), actually belongs to Kamienka, Stará ¥ubovòa district (info from Mr. Andrej ©kuba, previous inhabitant of village Kamienka).

Process of elimination for possible Brother Frank Kraus - this age/locate could be the right one, but the Mother's maiden name is not Tippenweiler.  THIS ONE NOT RELATED:
