MANY EAGER To
FORSAKE RUSSIA
AND REACH j. s.
Are Disappointed With What
They Have Found in the
promised Land" They
Tell of Starvation.
(By The Associated Press.)

Riga, Latvia, July 1S.-Little
groups of Russian-Americans, who
were deported or volunteered to go
from America to soviet Russia,
are trickling back across the Lat
Wan frontier from the land of the
bolsheviki very frequently, these
days, all with the hope of getting
back to the United States.
These emigrants, according to
American consular officials, who
hear their stories and have to tell
them there is not much chance for
them to get back, are greatly dis
appointed with what they found
in the promised Land"
They tell of starvation and long
rides in trains so packed with
people that there is scarcely room
to breathe.
Besides those who have succeed
ed in getting to Latvia, there are
many others who have written
friends in Riga asking for money
from America.
The Moscow correspondent Of
the Riga Rundschau writes as fol-
lows about the Russian-Americans
inside the country:
"The numbers of Russian COM
munists expelled from America,
who with wry faces are selling
their last goods and chattels on the
Moscow market places, are in
creasing every day.
"The soviet government Is doing
its utmost to keep these people
above water by giving them even
whole factories to run and to man
age. But as these factories are
very much run down, even Amer
lean spirit and energy is not suf-
ficiently strong to set them In op-
Grafton.
"a little better off are those of
the immigrants who have man.
aged to take with them from Amer
lea their tools or goods produced
by their trade. Such people are
doing big business and can af-
ford to live well. Thus, one party
of emigrants has succeeded in in
stalling a small sewing factory con-
tanning about 200 sewing machines.
formerly the soviet government
would have simply confiscated
this lucrative enterprise, but at
present the government is little
wary, the more so as in this case
they have to do with immigrants
whom they make point OF treat
ing with the greatest possible cour-
tesy and consideration.
"Quite recently there arrived a
party of Americans whose special
ty is the construction of small
dwelling houses. They are well
coined and aided by the soviet gov
eminent"

fired at them. The bandits Sc
cured s400 in money and jewelry
valued at $4,000.
The bandits entered the store
about $3.50 o'clock Saturday night
while several customers were in
the store. They carried revolvers
and forced every one in the store to
put up his hands. Then they piled
the iewelry and money into box
and fled, closely pursued by the
proprietors, who secured their
guns as soon as the bandits started
to leave. The proprietors fired a
number of shots after the robbers
but failed to hit them. and the last
they saw of the bandits, they said,
was when the robbers jumped over
the international fence into the
United States at point half a
mile below the business district of
Nogales Ariz.

AMENDMENT Of

Anti Medical Beer Bill Is
Held Up; Priority Is Given
Norris Farm Export FL
nance Measure.
Try The Assoclntcd Press.l

Washington, July 1S.-Pleas for
immediate enactment of the Willis
Campbell anti-medical beer bill
fell on deaf ears in the senate to-
day which, by vote of Al to IT,
decided to give priority to the
Norris farm export finance bill.
Delay and not defeat of the beer
bill, it was said, would result, the
senate vote being regarded as eX-
pressing the view that aid TO
farmers was more Of an emergency
than amendment of the Volstead
law. go,

create a federal corporation with
S1O0,O00,0O0 of capital and power
to issue $1,000,000, 900 of securities
in financing farm exports, It's "un-
finished business" with daily priv
ileged status, the senate somewhat
set it's future program During the
week the senate expects to pass the
Sheppard baby bill" for govern
ment aid to maternity and infancy.
Other measures in immediate pros
pect are the Sweet bill, to coordl-
nate soldier relief agencies, the ad-
ministration bill for refunding the
allied debts and several more farm
er relief measures.
Agricultural Bloc Wins.
Prohibition leaders urged the
senate to take up the beer meas
ure instead of the Norris bill, but
the senate needed counter pleas OF
the agricultural "bloc."
Those in charge Of the beer Dill
planned to call it up for an hour
or two daily until, under senate
rules, it is forced to give way to
the Norris bill. When the beer
measure could be passed under this
procedure was said by its managers
to be problematical. They eX-
pressed belief that the treasury de-
partment would continue to hold
up regulations permitting prescrip-
tions of beer as medicine.
Fourteen republican and three
democratic senators voted in oppo-
sition to taking up the Norris bill
ahead of the beer measure. Among
republicans were Cummins, Iowa;
Kellogg, Minnesota; Knox Penn
sylvania; McNary, oregon; Nelson,
Minnesota; Nicholson, Colorado,
and Sterling, South Dakota. The
democrats were Ashurst, Arizona;
Sheppard, Texas, and Walsh, Mon

Guards Who Attempt to
QueII Outbreak in Dining
Room Are PeIted With
Tableware and Cutlery

Pittsburgh, Pa, July 1S.-Pris-
oners in the Western penitentiary
here today broke all bounds of dis
cip1ine, fired four buildings and
for a time kept the institution in
an uproar, while prison guards,
deputy sheriffs and policemen, re-
inforced by armed citizens, fought
to put down the disorder. Six con-
victs were shot and two others cut
in the battle. Prison officials said
three or four of the wounded would
likely die.
The outbreak, aimed to start with
the ringing of the first fire gong,
began in the dining room, where
the conyicts sought to detract the
attention of the guards from the
fire, prison officials said. Alarms
sounded from four places In the
institution almost simultaneously,
when guards discovered the prison
ers had fired the buildings with
any material available.
Fire Gong Sounds Alarm.
Some six hundred prisoners had
lust taken their seats in the big
dining room, when one OF them
sent bowl Of soup careening
down one of the long tables. In
stantly the room was in an up
roar, for at the same moment the
fire gong sounded an alarm from
the construction shop, the linen
shop, the kitchen and the chapel.
The guards in the dining room
tried to quell the outbreak, but the
maddened prisoners pelted them
with tableware and cutlery, all the
time shrieking and bowling. The
fire department called city fire
men, while riot calls were sent In
for the police.
Dash for Prison Yard.
The dining room guards regained
order in parts and forced some of
the men back to their cells, but
200 or more dashed for the prison
yard, and when faced by other
guards, backed into a building and
ran for the top of tier of cells.
They pelted the guards, now re-
inforced by every available man in
the prison, with bricks torn from
the top of the wall. Deputy sher-
ifs and police from every pre-
cinct soon added to the fighting
force, and it was not long until the
prisoners had been chased from
the wall to their cells. They sig
nalized their reincarceration by
breaking the glass in the windows
and shrieking and bowling.
$4,000 Fire Damage.
within two hours the fire was
under control, but not until a num-
ber Of buildings had been de-
stroyed with an estimated loss in
excess of S50.000.
John NJ. Egan, parole officer,
after quiet had been restored, said
that the outbreak was the result
of period of discomfort among
the 1,135 prisoners confined in the
institution.

WORKMEN' s PAY
ACT IS INVALID
COURT DECIDES
Arizona Law Creating the
State Industrial CommiS-
sion Is Unconstitutional,
Tribunal Declares.
lnx The Assoclnted Press.l

Phoenix, Ariz., July 1S.-The
workmen's compensation act
passed by the last legislature Great
ing the state industrial commits
sion, is invalid, according to de-
cision handed down by the state
supreme court today. The de-
cision upheld the findings of Su-
perior Judge r. c. Stanford who
issued q permanent injunction re-
straining the commissioners from
exercising any of the powers CIV
en- to them by the act and direct
ing the state treasurer and auditor
to prevent the commissioners from
spending any of the states mon
ey. The act was held unconstitu-
tional.
The suit was instituted by J. l..
Carisman, a local contractor, and
the papers in the case were served
on the members of the commission
as they concluded the first meet
ing of the commission.
The opinion was rendered by
Chief Justice Ross and was con-
Cured in by Justices Baker and
McAllister. Both Justices Baker
and McAllister rendered supple
mental opinions, the former eX-
pressing regret that the state con-
stitution already had been inter-
preted by the supreme court so
as to make impossible such legisla-
ton as had been found desirable
by many other states. Justice Nc
Allister made a more detailed dis
cussion of the constitution in his
opinion.
The invalidity of the act accord
ing to all of the opinions, lies
chiefly in section sixty which
would require an employe engaged
in a hazardous occupation to elect
in advance of an injury whether
he would avail himself of the act.
That was the point raised by the
plaintiff in the superior court.
The chief justice in his opinion
recalled that the language of the
constitution with reference to that
point had been interpreted by the
state supreme court in the Ujack
case.
"If the view expressed in the
JTjack case" said the decision, was
correct and sound, the present
compensation act cannot stand. We
realize that If the employe may
not be required (under the consti-
tution) to elect his remedy before
injury, it is not possible for the
legislature to pass a compensation
law such as exists in nearly every
state in the union"

WORLD LIKE
JOB, HAS BOILS,
WOMAN ASSERTS
Lesson Is Drawn From Life
of Old Testament Charac-
ter BY Woman Speaker at
New Thought Alliance.
(By The Associated Press.)

Denver, July 1S.-The world to-
day is like Job--covered with
boils-Mrs. Elizabeth Towne of
Holyoke. Mass, declared in an ad-
dress tonight before the eighth an
nual conference of the New
Thought Alliance in conference
here.
Jobs experience, Mrs. Towne
declared, has been or will be the
experience of every individual of
the human race, exactly parallels
the American experience and por-
trays he whole worlds experience
OF the present psfIOd which began
SO or 60 years age and will ex-
tend over the next 20 or 80 years.
Jobs unsatisfied social hunger"
Mrs. Towne said. "eventuated in
boils the mental correspondence of
which is jealousy. Job lost his
worldly goods, his servants and
children because he thought him
self being the only righteous man
in the Land Of Use and was ever
bent on making other people over
according to rs own "attern."
Great Man; Knew 1t.
"While Job was doubtless the
greatest man of his day, the trou-
BILE was" Mrs. Towne declared,
"that he knew it. He approved of
himself thoroughly and constantly
impressed others with his great
ness" She recalled how Job was
not invited to the feasts of his sew
en- sons and daughters.
perhaps because he was a kill
joy," she declared. "Job took his
righteousness and himself too seri-
ously."
Boils were sent to Job. accord
ing to Mrs. Towne's Interpretation
Of the Biblical story, to try him.
His mental processes, she said, un-
derwent a radical change.
HE found the Lord God ruling
in everybody--in his neighbors
children. He discovered democ-
racy. He found truth, sympathy,
understanding. good will and
friendly service"
Came Off His Perch.
Then. according to the story. his
boils vanished. his goods were re-
stored, and Job lived to be 14O
years old. And thereafter when his
friends and relatives had feasts
Job was an honored guest. He
had come from his pinnacle.
THE social and economic world
of today is passing through the
same unfoldment that Job exper-
ienced," Mrs. Towne said. "Espe-
cially in America and among the
governments of all nations the de-
sire to e-greatest has come to be
regarded as an impossible and un-
satisfactory aim. National and in
ternational ideals of equality OF
rights are displacing autocracy and
benevolent paternalism.
Exercising authority as Job
did is no longer the ideal of en-
lightened individuals and peoples"

PROTECTION Of
YOUNG GROWING
TREES IS URGED
Forestation Needs of the
United States Are Out
lined Before a Committee
at Chicago Meeting.

Chicago, July 1S.-Forestation
needs of the United States were
outlined today before the special
committee of the chamber of COM
merce of the United States, invesi-
eating lumber problems, by Colonel
William B. Greeley, of Washington,
chief forester of the United States.
The committee, which is to hold
hearings from coast to coast, was
appointed at the suggestion of the
Wood Pulp Paper manufacturers.
AS a result of it's investigations a
national reforestation policy will be
to congress.
Colonel Greeley urged re-fores-
tation, declaring it should be put in
the class of public utilities, under
the protection and with the aid of
the public. To provide ample lum-
ber supplies which are now being
used up four and a half times as
fast as timber is produced, Colonel
Greeley suggested three steps:
Fire protection and adjust
ment of taxes on land containing
young forest growth so that owners
can afford to hold it until it is
fully productive. An area of 245,-
100000 acres which has been cut
over once must bridge the gap be-
tween the virgin forests and newly
planted areas, Colonel Greeley said,
in urging protection of this young
growth area. y
2-Restoration to productivity Of
81, 100000 acres, which has been
cut or burned until it is now de-
nuded.
3-Forestation Of virgin forests
as fast as they are cut, which is at
the rate of 100000 acres a year.
"Any cost of re-forestation is a
mere bagatelle compared to the
high cost of added transportation
charges to the consumer" Colonel
Greeley declared. "Reforestation IS
an investment against higher trans
portation costs in the future"
