Martens, Soviet Envoy,
To Be Arrested lie He
Attempts To Enter us.
By 81. Il. REYNOLDS,
international News Service.

Following the revocation by
Secretary Hughes of his permits
sion for Nine. Kalinin, wife of
the president of Russia, to enter
this country for a speech-making
tour in the interests of the Rus
sian Red Cross, renewed demands
were made on the State Depart
ment today for an order barring
Ludwig c. A.. K. Martens, former
Soviet ambassador, and his UNDER
study, Gregory Weinstein, from
the United States.
VIII Arrest on Sight.
Reports have reached Secretary
of Labor Davis that these Russian
enissaries, after once being deport.
ed from this country, are trying to
get in again: and orders have been
issued to all immigration officials
to arrest them on sight so they
may be held for passage on the
first outbound steamship.
Unappeased by these precautions,
however. patriotic organizations
which urged the cancellation of
Nine. Kalinin's passport, have
asked Secretary Hughes to cooper
ate with the Labor Department by
issuing a formal order refusing per-
mission to Martens and Weinstein
to enter the United States. It is
pointed out that the issuance of
such an order will make it possible
for the Government to proceed
against the unwelcome Russian visi-
tors in the courts and to send them
to Federal prison if they should
succeed in getting past the immi1
grafton officials This was the
treatment accorded about a year
ago to Joseph Kowalski, who Sc
cretly re-entered the country after
being deported.

CLUB FOR MOSCOW
EVAN LEWIS NAMED PRESIDENT
PLANS MADE FOR PERMANENT
COURSE.

Plans were perfected Wednesday
night at the meeting of more thar
40 golf enthusiasts for the permanent
organization Of the Moscow golf club

possible sites for golf course. Mos

grounds entirely inadequate and it
was agreed that the club should start
at once to the building of a suitable

Membership in the club is open to
all persons interested in golf. Some
years ago Moscow boasted a success
fuI golf club with a nine hole course
on the G. P. Mix ranch, but the World

club. If the present plans are car
ried out the newly formed organiza-
lion will have a membership of more

and those interested in the Moscow
golf club has been called for Mon

CONDITIONS ARE BEST
HERE, SAYS SUPPIGER

George w. Suppiger, member of the
state industrial accident board, went
to Lewiston yesterday, after a short
visit with his family at this place, to
conduct the hearing in the case of
Henry Robinson, claimant, against
the state insurance fund. The action
is based on the death of Roy Robin
son, son of Henry Robinson, which
occurred in Lewiston late last year,
following an injury sustained by
Robinson while working for the Lolo
Lumber company, near Greer.
Mr.. Suppiger is making his head
quarters at Boise, but his duties re-
quire him to spend considerable
time travelling throughout the state.
Before leaving here yesterday, he
stated to Star Mirror representa-
tive that conditions seem to be more
stable in Moscow than in almost any
place he had visited, due to the more
varied resources of this district, and
the disposition to accumulate which,
he believes, has been more prevalent
here than in many places, leaving
the farmers and business men in bet
ter condition to withstand the period
If deflation and the short crop of last
year. The communities which de-
pend entirely on the crop, he states,
ire in sorry financial condition, but
nope for better things after the re-
urns on the coming crop are in.
