PLAN TO FLEE HUNGARY.
Great Stream of Emigration to
America Following War Expected.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
BUDAPEST. Hungary. July 20
Hungary, proba bly, more than any other
European nation, is going to have to
erect restrictive barriers against the
emigration of its inhabitants to Amer
ica after the war, in the opinion of
DIR. Gustav Gratz, member of parlia-
ment and director of the Hungarian
Manufacturers Association. At the
same time, if the United States hopes
entirely to escape from an inundation
of so-called "cheap labor" 1t must CO.
operate and itself put up barriers
which shall help to keep out the thou
sands who, DIR. Gratz believes, will
want and try to forsake their native
country and its heavy problems.
DR.. Gratz declares that he knows
from personal investigation that the
tendency to emigrate from agricultural
Hungary will be in strong contrast to
the tendency in industrial Austria and
Germany to stay at home.
The cause for this tendency. of course,
he explains, is to be found in the fact
that the agricultural worker is not
going to be SO fortunately situated
after the war as the industrial man, es-
pecially as the worker in Germany and
a great part of Austria, who Is prob
ably going to find plenty Of work at
ent and prospective high prices.
Yet he believes there will be some
tendency on the part of the skilled
laborer to go across to the new home.
His hope that this is going to be pre-
vented during a critical period in
lation here, but in the repeated indica-
tions from America that she would
like to check the number Of emigrants
coming to her

Dulles REACHES VIENNA.
Third Secretary to American EN-

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
VIENNA, July 1s.-Allan Welsh Dulles.
a nephew Of Secretary of State Lansing
and a grandson Of the former Secretary Of
State, John w. Foster, has arrived to
take a position as a third secretary under
the American ambassador, Frederick c.
Penfield.
Mr. Dulles, who. though but twenty
three years old, has already had an un-
usual educational career and who has
been professor at a university in Vienna,
had cherished the thought of a diplo-
matte career for some time, but he had
never let his hopes be known for fear
that any appointment he might receive
would lay him open to the charge of
favoritism on the part of his distinguished
uncle Therefore, in taking his examina-
ton he did not enter his name. but mere
ly a number, and revealed his identity
only when it was definitely established
that he had obtained the highest percent
age of the thirteen candidates who COM
peted.
BY an odd coincidence he comes to Wen
ma for his diplomatic start. with Mr.. Pen
field for his preceptor and instructor. Mr..
Penfield, in turn, accords to Dulles grand
father, John w. Foster. all the ground
work of diplomatic knowledge which he
possesses.

THE WINDOW OPPOSITE.

From the hot store imperfectly
cooled by whirling fans Stacia War
rem passed to the hotter street. In an
other part of the city that day one man
had bet another that he could fry eggs
on the sidewalk-and he had won his
bet. Stacias feet burned as she
dragged herself the weary fourteen
blocks to the high, narrow rooming
house where she spent s1.5O out of her
precious six for shelter and protection.
The room was three flights up. Breath
less, dripping with perspiration, nau-
seated with weariness, Stacia reached
her own door. She opened 1t and hot
breath licked her face.
Leaving the door ajar in the hope
that draft might result. she removed
her street clothes and put on an old
kimono. The pitcher was full of luke
warm water and she dashed it over her
face and neck and arms. Then in de-
spair and misery she knelt before the
window and leaned far out over the
sill, struggling for air.
Four feet away was another window
wide open. The shade was raised
high, the thin curtains drawn far back
Stacla had an unobstructed view of the
room. 1t was fitted up as a sitting
room, with writing table, bookcases
and wicker chairs. 1t was to the
books that Stacias glance clung long

For days the shade had been down,
the window closed. The transforma-
tion in the room opposite had taken
place since morning. Some one had
moved in. Stacia understood that the
house was too expensive to be popular
in that neighborhood. She wondered

Big Profits in Herring for Dutch.

SCHEVENINGEN, Netherlands, Au-

Dutch fleet of 725 ships during the

brought an average of $50 per ton, as
compared with $s for the previous sea

particularly the big German demand
were thus responsible for an increase
