Russians Paying Good Money for
Transportation Over the Line
The United States appears TO be the
same Mecca 10 the Russians that it did
10 the Cinnamon a few years ago, and
almost anything will be paid for safe
conduct over the line from Canada at
the present time. Goldie Goldstein, the
woman who was detained in jail here
awaiting deportation, states that the
party with which she came over paid
$3.50 to man in Montreal for getting
them over This was all the money which
the party could scrape together
The demand for admission to this coun-
try has so grown that an elaborate sys-
tenn for getting aliens over the line has
developed Men in Montreal are getting
the big sums and are hiring others along

SERB|ANS At VAIL SCHOOL

Lynd onvilie, Nov. B.-The Theodore n.
Vail School of Agriculture has been So
lected by the Serbian authorities for the
training of a selected group of young
men from that country. In cooperation
with a Serbian committee in this country
some fifty young Serbians have been sent
TO America by the Serbian authorities
for the purpose of securing the training
necessary TO equip these young persons
for services at home. The students have
been located in various institutions OF
higher learning throughout the country,
Some are in medical school. some in engi-
nearing institutions, while others are spe-
cializing in chemistry, physics, etc. All
who are to follow agriculture are to be
received by the Theodore n Vail school.
The Serbian agricultural authorities them
selves selected this institution, and re-
ouested the privilege Of sending stu
dents
Eleven young men will reach Lyndon
VILE on Tuesday. November IS. These
students are about twenty-one years oil
age, and have had an education equivalent
TO the freshmen work in our colleges and
universities. Their expenses are PAID by
their government and they are required
to return to Serbia within a period OF
four years or upon the completion of their
studies. They are, moreover. required to
pomise that they will never return as
residents Of this country, but that they
will do all that they can to further tho
agricultural interests OF their native
country. 1t is not expected that they viii
become teachers.
