Honegoing Italians
Carry Away With
Them SS,OOO,OOO

|. NEW YORK, July 17.-Carrying
away total estimated at more than
SS,Q)0,O00 of money earned il thi
United States, 400 Italians yester-
day boarded the steamships Giuseppe
Verdi, Caserta and Re d'Italia, bound
for ports of their native land.
Not a few had in their baggage
packages containing several pairs of
shoes, having learned Of scarcity of
leather in Italy. Though the Gin
seppe Verdi and Re d'Italia got away,
the Caserta was held up because of
the late hour at which the passen-
gers started aboard. She will start
today.
Though many had in excess of
$4,000 each and some more than $10,-
900, the majority had about $4,000
each. Many of the latter expected
to return to America in a few years,
pointing out in explanation that al
though $4,000 would have sufficed
to enable them to retire in other
years, prices in Italy have scared so
that their savings will not last long.
Most of the homegoing Italians
said they made their money working
in shipyards and munition plants.
Few among those that sailed were in
the army or navy, though some of
them were Italian reservists who were
unable to get back to the home land
to fight because of lack of ships dur
ing the war.
All day Monday and part of Tues
day morning line four deep ex-
tended around the Custom House
waiting for passports. Each appli-
cant, before receiving a passport, had
to show evidence of payment in full
of his income taxes. Forty clerks
were detailed to handle the applica-
tions.
The American money earned by
the returning Italians, few of whom
had become American citizens, was
exchanged for Italian money at New
York banks before their departure.

Sensation In
Federal Court

KNOXVILLE, jay 17.-When
Robert McNish was convicted in the
United States district court Wednes-
day on a charge of evading the Sc
lective service law and was sentenced
by Federal Judge f. T. Sanford to
serve four months in the Knox coun-
ty jail, a sensation was sprung whicA
forced the court to adjourn for some
time.
Following the pronouncement of
the sentence, the wife of McNish, who
is said to be "Holy Roller" fell on
her knees in the court room and be-
gan screaming. After rolling over
and over on the floor, she jumped to
her feet and started what seemed to
be a fair imitation of an Indian war
dance.
By this time the two frightened
children of the defendant were cry
ing at the top of their lungs and the
dignity of the court was upset for
many minutes.

South To Keep
Export Rates

WASHINGTON, July 17.--Read-
iustment of export freight rates to
South Atlantic and gulf ports will be
started soon by the railroad admins
tration to permit shipments through
those gateways on equal terms with
New York and the East.
This assurance was given yesterday
by Director of Traffic Chambers and
Director of Public Service Thelan to
representatives of the south and mid
die west, who appeared to protest
against the reported intention of the
administration to cancel existing ex-
port rates, which would divert thou
sands of tons of freight to the al
ready crowded North Atlatic sea-
board. It was announced after the
hearing that the railroad admniistra-
ton not only had no intention of
canceling existing rates, but planned
to extend them to cover all the terri
tory from the Mississippi river to the
Ohio Pennsylvania lines, including
Buffalo and Pittsburg.
Representatives of virtually all the
% states comprised in the Mississippi
valley of the various ports interested,
including New Orleans, Mobile, Pen
sacola, Galveston, Houston, Savannah
Charles, Wilmington, Jacksonville and
Brunswick, and numerous senators
and representatives attended the hear
ing. They will appear before the
shipping board to ask that adequate
steamship facilities and favorable
ocean rates be given the South At
lantic and gulf ports, so that COM
bined rail and water rates on export
traffic will enable them to compete
with the East.

Repeal of Daylight
Law Planned

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Repub-
lican leaders of the house, supported
by party leaders in the senate, agreed
yesterday to attempt re-passage of
the agricultural appropriation bill
with its daylight saving repeal rider,
despite the presidents veto. Pro-
visions of the daylight saving law au-
thorizing the interstate commerce
commission to fix standard time zones
however, will not be discarded under
the proposal.
In line with this decision, made by
the republican legislative steering
committee, and after assurances had
been obtained that the rules commit
tee would authorize the daylight saw
ing repeal being Incorporated in the
appropriation bill, Chairman Haugen,
of the house agricultural committee,
yesterday re-introduced the agricul-
tural bill.
