My Dear Contestants:
Though may not be able to meet you all, person
ally, CHAD of the privilege of being able to talk
to you thru the medium of the columns of The Seattle
Star, and shall take advantage of it to extend to
every of you my very best wishes, and a little
word of encouragement to those of you who may be
bit timid in submitting scenario or story, feeling
that the product of the college graduate even pro-
fessonal scenario writer might submerge your efforts.
Remember, ii is not the technical form in which a
scenario is submitted that counts, but rather the rud
ments of the story-plots, cimaxes situations Your
power of suggesting the perturbation of your story
may be ably expressed, and the theme of your
scenario full of human interest than that OF one
whose technical knowledge is greater.
Forget that scenario is anything but story Let
your dump of originality" have full sway but make
your characters human, true to lfe and keep them
on a plane of mortals In each one of you may lie
streak of the writing genius that needs but concentra
ton and determined effort to divulge.
/ look forward to the elimination of the contest
and the pleasure of personally meeting the winner.

Gordon OF Guards Fails to Hall

ROTTERDAM. Nov 9.-Holland has
established great Gordon along the
German frontier TO prevent the influx
of large numbeIs Of Russian Bolshevik
agents from Germany. Heavy guards
are maintained. Those who ATTEMPT
surreptititously to cross run the risk OF
being shot
These precautions have failed. how
ever, TO check the movements of Soviet
agents. Men whom the police would
Ike to interview have been seen in this
city and Amsterdam. The system re
sembles the underground railroad' BY
which fugitive slaves moved through
Northern states to Canada in the days
before the American Civil War.
The underground raiiroad' is util-
l2ed BY Soviet agents to bring into
Holland Bolshovik missionaries who
are to make attempts to reach America.
During recent months many Poles have
gone TO America.
Reports have been received here that
many Bolshevk sympathizers who were
deported last year as undesirables
from America are to be returned to
that country

Preparing to Emigfate

Alarmed by cable reports from Rot

OF the Russian Bolshevik government to
send $4,000 Red agitators to the United
States, Frederick A. Wallis, Commis
sioner of immigration, at Ellis Island
yesterday, issued orders that hereafter
incoming ships will be subjected to
severe inspection before they are per-
mitted to anchor. Mr.. Wallis said
private advices from Europe informed d
him that many agitators would attempt
to reach this country as members Of
crews or as stowaways.
The information that radicals will
seek admission to this country as mem
bcrs OF ships crews or as stowaways
mas reached ne from various sources,
said Mr.. Wallis
Holland Fears Red Invasion
'ln the last few days received a
letter from DR.. S. l.. Neenstra, director
Of Hollands Emigration League, in
which am furnished valuable leads in
this matter. Writing me from The
Hague. Dr.. Ncenstra emphasizes what
he hinted to me when he was in this
country that the invasion of Holland
by radicals and Il widespread dread of
Bolsheyism are the combining infu-
ences which are causing many of the
best families in Holland to sell out
thelr homes and come 70 the United
States.
II am not surprised to read in the
cablegrams from Rotterdam that an
attache Of the American Consulate had
been offered q bribc to permit six Of
these Bolshevik agitaters to embark
for the United States. Rotterdam
seems to have been selected by the
plot,ers as the clearing house. But
am advised that the Holland authorities
are taking proper steps to cope with

German Exports

Country's Imports

Trade Is Apprehensive

Although the valuation of the i'm
ports into Germany during 1919 was
more than three times that Of the ex~
ports in the same period, the trade
ucnd was reversed last spring, and
there is noW an excess Of exports over
imports. This is viewed in trade
circles as evidence Of the rapidity with
which Germany is forging ahead in
foreign commerce.
Figures presented by the German
Delegates at the Brussels Financial
Conference show how Germany has re-
stored a favorable balance Of trade
The following table furnished by the
delegates shows the exports and i'm
ports for 1919 and for the irst five
months Of 1920, IN marks:
