Russian Refugees
Flocking to Berlin

Berlin. April 22.-Hordes of Rus
san refugees are hocking here on
every train The arrivals have set
tied themselves in a section of the
city which they occupy almost to the
exclusion of other natioralitics, and
have opened their own restaurants,
clubs. saloons and theatres. Some of
the Russians are wealthy, but most
of them are pcnniless.
The police have found them Il prob
lem as they insist upon their own
customs. and have little commerce
NTH the Germans. The greatest
uili.culty is found in compelling tn
immigrants to observe the one o'clocn
closing regulations. They follow the
Russian custom of beginning dinntI
after midnight and continuing their
eating and drinking until daylight
In @,,cral of these restaurants for

have become conspicuous figures in
the night life because of their lavish
expenditures.
The German newspapers complain
hat the great influx of eastcrncrs
has deprived Berlin of its "Ge' nan
character" One paper asserts Ger
many's capital city has become "a
foreign colony, as surely as it would
have become if our enemies had
marched in and taken it," Anutht
declares Germans have become
guests in their own homes"
Government quarters, which hav"
shown little concern for the fnanci
status of the refugees, have SuddrniI

Russian Furs to be
On Market This Fall

Moscow, April ia huge guam
tity of new Russian furs, stored in
warehouse near the Kremlin and re-
garded by the Soviet government as
part of its national treasury, is ex-
pected to be placed on the market
early next fall.
The immense stock, consisting
largely of astrachan, sable and err
mine, is the largest single supply of
furs in Russia, and will be held in re-
serve until the Soviets have re-estab-
lished their world trade sufficiently
to obtain good market.
While this supply is not for sale,
the national treasury continues to op-
crate retail department where mink,
fox and other cheaper skins are sold
The public has unshaken confidence
IN this branch of the government, for
it has found the furs to be in good
condition, well tanned and reasonable
in price. A monkey skin large
enough for mans overcoat could be
had last winter for about 500 and
0ther furS were In proportion. A
few hundred miles from Moscow,
however, the prices are so per cent
lower, as money is scarcer
Many of the skins selling at high
prices in Central Europe or the Unit
ID States have no special value in
Russia. One of these is sable martin.
A fair grade of this fur may be had
for 50 and an entire coat, consisting
If 60 or 70 skins, will sell for $40 or
$50. While silver fox is relatively

mately the same price as sable, which
sells for about 81.
All these skins bring five times as
much as soon as they cross the from

fees To his other losses.
Hardly was the case decided in
Kings court when the defendant en-.

The astonishcd bookmaker, realizing
that he could not afford to jeOpardiZc

Alarmed Over
Campaign on Treaty

Stockhold, April 17.-Conservative
elements here are alarmed over the
extension and well organized propa-
ganda campaign being made on be-
half of the new commercial treaty be-
tween Sweden and Soviet Russia,
which is before the Riksdag with a
fair chance of ratification.
The treaty provides admittance to
Sweden of an official Soviet repre-
sentative, and the admittance to Rus
sia of like representative of Swe-
den. The representatives are to be
purely for trade protection and ex-
tension and both will agree to abstain
from propaganda.
A particular clause of the treaty
which conservatives view with alarm
provides that commercial delegates
from Russia also shall be admitted
to Sweden as well as nationals OF
Russia having commercial. business
i'll the country. This, the anti-Bol-
shevik group fear, will permit an un-
interrupted flow of Communist prop
uganda and Bolshevist organizers to
sweep through Sweden, which in
time, they believe, will undermine
the nations political system.
Minister of Commerce Svensson
has told members of the Riksdag that
parliament will either have to accept
the treaty as it stands or reject it, as
the cabinet has signed the document
and cannot accept and amendments
