Eleven AustrianS
Caughta at AoV|and.

>Aliens IN Canada q eating dande-
lions to keep soul and body together,
EIa according to Brown MoDonald,s immi-
grafton inspector at Duluth. He made
this statement when speaking of the
eleven Austrians who are in jail in Du-
luth awaiting government action to free
them from the charge of crossing the
border in violation of the Federal laws.
''Some of these mon have not had work
in eight months or more. In fact, they
have been idle for an indefinite period,
and their condition has been pitiable.
Aliens are eating dandellons and roots,
and exist from hand to mouth as best
they can. Alien women about to be-
come mothers are haunted with the fear
that their babies may starve, and the
husbands are fearful lest their wives die
for want Of proper care and nour1sh-
ment."
%he eleven Austrians were arrested at
Hovland, Minn., June 18, and are now
better off in Jail than they were roaming
about without work or proper food
The majority of them would like to stay
in the United States and become citl-
zens. What action the authorities at
Washington will take is not known.
The eleven Austrians say that it is
next to impossible for an enemy to es-
cape from Canada. The government
has tried to provide for the needy to a
certain extent, but has been unable to
cope with the situation.
According to Mr.. Mcdonald there are
about $500 aliens stationed at Fort
William and 800 at Port Arthur. The
government allows 80 cents a week for
adults and 40 cents week for children.
Fort William is allowing 70 cents to
male citizens and so cents to children.
In speaking of the condition and expert
ences of the mon, Mr.. Mcdonald said:
"Some of the mon walked across the
border from Fort William, distance of
more than 100 miles, having had prac-
ticauy nothing to eat during the entire
time.
"They walked along old lumber trails
across the border, finding stale food sup
plies at some of the old lumber camps
on the way over.
"Five of the men were lost in the
woods for nine days, having nothing to
eat but few loaves of bread. brought
from Canada. When they regalned the
road they were about famished, but
could find nothing to eat but old stale
corn meal. BY using water, the only
thing plentiful, they made bread. This
was their food for the remainder of the
journey,
"Others in the party were lucky
enough to find some old turnips in a
deserted house and these were eaten.
None Of the mon had any clothing 'ex-
cept what they wore. They slept at
times in the rain and cold along the old
lumber trails.
'When they were given real food in
Hovland, they were unable to control
themselves. One said he had not tasted
meat for so long, he had forgotten it's
flavor. "-D Duluth Herald. =. LILA

 Head of Bank Not Summoned
 Subpoenas for Mir Allies, MT. Evans and others were issued last night by John E. Laskey, federal district attor- ney As far as can be learned no sub poena has yet been issued for MT. Glover, president of the bank, who fig ured prominently in the case last spring
 The suit was brought by the bank to enjoin Secretary McAdoo of the treasury Controller Williams of the currency, and United States treasurer, Burke, from further conspiring to injure the bank by demanding further special reports on the banks condition, by withholding approval of the bank as reserve agent for out of-town banks, and by collecting me or 35O00 or more for the banks refusal to make one special report demanded by the Controller.
 On all except the question of the fine, Justice Mccoy decided against the bank. On that point he reserved judgment after refusing pleas for injunction. The jus tice declared not only that the charges of malice against the treasury officials were unfounded, but that the bank offi- cers, if malice there was. had shown 1t long before their activities had attracted the attention of the treasury officials. The latter, the court said would have been neglecting their duty if they left the soyernment's money In the bank after its unlawful practices had come to their knowlede.
 Bank Examiners at Work
 At the bank today it was said that four hank examiners had been at work in the hank ever since last June. Little ot their time was devoted. it was said, to the banks present condition and it was supposed that they were searching the hooks for evidence to be used before the grand iury The three examiners who appeared before the grand jury today were Edward Donohue, James Trmble and w. sherrll Smith.
 While this investigation was going on, the bank had the American Audit com many go through their books. According to statements today by officers of the hank. a report from the audit company said that there was nothing to show thai the bank had ever had any transactions with Lewis Johnson & Co.
 The banks officers today didsnot seem worried about the developments. They the hank and that deposits had increa sed to about s9,O0OO0 This increase. they said. was made in the face of withdraw als of about s75O.0O0 to pay their custo- mer's taxes Ordinarily. these tax pay ments are restored to the bank by the trea sury. but this year they were with. held
