TRANSYLVANIAS RETURN
TO DESTROYED HOMES

Budapest. Nov, 25.--The Hungarian
minister of the interior announces that
the tens Of thousands of men, women
and children who fed from the eastern
and southern districts OF Pennsylvania
when the Rumanians broke through
the Carpathian passes and started
their short-lived Invasion of Hungary,
will be returned to their homes at
once, as the invaded territory is prac-
tically cleared of the enemy.
The majority of the fugitives flock
ed TO Budapest and most OF them
were without means. Their housing
and feeding was a serious problem,
but, thanks to the efficient measures
taken by the government few OF them
suffered from want. To enable them
to rebuild their destroyed homesteads
the ministry has appropriated s10.-
goo, 900, but much larger sum will
be needed later

PREDICTS COLD WILL SEND
NEGROES SOUTH AGAIN

Atlanta, Ga. Nov. 25.-It has been
generally believed in Atlanta that
a large number OF negroes had felt
the mysterious call of the North in the
weeks preceding the national election.
The total number from this city alone
Is said to be fully $500 and this is
light as compared with the inroads
made on some sections.
Many residents of this city have re-
called similar exodus of negroes to
the North about ten years ago. These
persons feel confident all the blacks
who have left their homes will fnd
their way back before many weeks
have passed. for, they say. it was zero
weather that made them return be-
fore, With the coming of snow and
freezing weather conditions It Is be-
lieyed the negroes will return.
