Nine. Anna Pavlowa, with twenty-six
members of her troupe, sailed yesterday
after highly successful season on the
Red Star liner Finland.
The voyage win not be altogether a
holiday for the dancer, for before sail
ing she arranged for a room to be fitted
up as a tiny gymnasium. In this she
will keep her muscles in perfect condi-
tion. She also will discuss new features
with the other members of her company
A large crowd of admirers and profess
sional friends bade her farewell
Only ffty-five first, 120 second and
III third class passengers sailed on the
Finland. The small number was prob
ably due to the desire of many voyagers
to spend Easter ashore.

SENATE TO BE REPRESENTED.
Harding Will Place Senators On Dis
armament Commission.

WASHINGTON. July 20.-President
Harding is understood to have decided
that the nat is to be represented on
the American commission in the disarm-
ament conference to be held here next
fall.
Although the size and personnel of the
commission are matters not yet given de-
tailed attention, there Is reason for the
belief that the President has in mind that
Senators Lodge and Underwood and
Elihu Root should represent the United
States. If the other countries send their
premiers, Secretary of State Hughes will
naturally head our delegation.
Samuel GOmpers, president of the
American federation of labor, visited the
President yesterday and. while pledging
him without reserve the support of the
federation in his effort to accomplish the
reduction of ornaments. urged upon him
the ACCESSIBILITY of naming at least one
representative of labor on the delegation.
The president is understood to have
promised serious consideration. If Eng
land. France. Italy and Japan include a
representative of labor, this country will
naturally follow suit. The women's or
ganizations are likewise asking for rep
res~entation.

RUN ON BARRE
BANK is STOPPED
Officials Take Advantage of 6O-Day
N0tice-City Deposits Funds There
to Restore Confidence.

BARRE, July 20.-After $4,000 in
currency had been paid out to frenzied
depositors in the Quarry Savings Bank
and Trust company, the run ON the
bank, which began Monday night and
continued for an hour yesterday morn
ing, was stopped when bank officials
took advantage of the provision in the
banking avs whereby a go DAYS notice
is required before Withdrawals from
savings bank accounts can be made.
Other Barre banks yesterday issued a
statement in which they assured the
depositors of the Quarry Savings Bank
and Trust company that they believe
in the absolute sOlvency of that insti-
tuition, and they advised depositors to
let their none remain there. The run
rs blamed on a rumor said to haye been
started by one of three persons in an
ice cseam parlor.
Proof of confidence in the bank was
furnished BY the municipality of Barre
which, not having an account in the
bank, deposited a sum of money there
during the forenoon. During the early
morning one man drew out 5000. but
later in the day deposited $4,000. while
a woman who had drawn out $500 re-de-
posted it q little later.
On all sides expressions of confidence
IN the Quarry bank are heard, and it Is
'xniicved that these arc borne out nv
the last statement of the company is
snea .TulY I. showing deposits of over
81 100000. undivided profits of over $2S.
100. and that its Investments and other
securities are good
The list of directors includes prom
nent men in Barre and Montpelier.
The bank was organized in 1913.

DEPORTED REDS
SICK OF RUSSIA
Many Escape to Latvia Try
ing to Get Back to
America
MUCH
IN SOVIET LAND

Some Beg Money of American Friends
Sell Their Last Goods In Moscow
MarEets-FactOries too Run Down TO
Operate.
RIGA. Latvia. July 20-Little groups
of observation-disclosures, who were deported
or volunteered to go from America to
Soviet Russia. are trickling back across
the Latvian 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 Amcri-
can consular officials, who hear their
stories and have to tell them there is not
much chance for them to get back, are
greatly disappointed 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 succeeded in
getting, to Latvia. there are many others
who nave written friends in Riga asking
for money from America.
The Moscow correspondent of the Riga
RundSchau writes as follows about the
RUSSIAN Americans inside the country :
The numbers of Russian Communists
expelled from America, who with WHY
faces are selling their last goods and
chattels on the Moscow market places are
increasing every day.
THE Soviet government is doing its ut
most to keep these people above water by
giving them even whole factories to run
and to manage But as these factories
are very much run down, even American
spirit and energy are not sufficiently
strong to set them in operation.
"A little better off are those of the inn
migrants who have managed to take with
them from America their tools or goods
produced by their trade. Such people are
doing a big business and can afford to
live well. Thus, one party of emigrantS
has succeeded in installing a small sew
ing factory containing about 300 sewing
machines.
Formerly the Soviet government would
have simply confiscated this lucrative en-
terpriSe, but at present the government is
a little wary, the more so as in this case
they have TO do with immigrants whom
they make a point of treating with the
greatest possible courtesy and considera-
ton.
Quite recently there arrived n party
of Americans whose speciality is the CON
struction of small dwelling houses. They
are welcomed and aided by the Soviet
government"
