 Death had a weird fascination for Bernhardt, and for years she con- templated it with what apepared to be an uncanny humor. The wish she most often expressed was that she might die in the midst of her triumphs. q shall play until death,' she said, land the death I hope for is the death Sir Henry Irving died.' Her English contemporary died on tour, being stricken with apoplexy after performance in 1905.
 Toward the end of 1922, it was thought this desire might shorten her life considerably, for while she was dangerously ill in her Paris home, she pitted her iron will against the physicians and prepared to re- sume her part in a new play by Sacha Guitry that she was playing in when stricken. She felt the end was near, her sick-room attendants said, and wanted to be acting a lead ing role when death rang down the curtain.

SAYS BUSINESS men
ALARMED AT ALIENS
Davis Will Push Bill for Selection
of Immigrants in Ma
tive Lands.

Bsiness men of the United States
are squarely behind the Secretary Of
Labor in his effort to secure a policy
of really selective immigration, Sec
retary Davis announced yesterday.
The leaders in business in the United
States have become alarmed at the
inferior class of Europeans and others
who are setting up business houses
in this country and driving the native
Americans out of business by under
selling and other means.
Secretary Davis has been given to
understand by leaders in Congress
that there will be no time at the COM
ing long session to consider adoption
of an alien code. designed to really
select the immigrants coming to this
country. Notwithstanding this fact,
Mr.. Davis intends to present an i'm
migra tion bill carrying the selection
provisions further than the present
law goes and Incorporating his two
proposals of enrolment and registra-
ton.
Real selective immigration by which
the character of the immigrant would
be looked into and his business ante
cedents prohed would satisfy the
American business men, Secretary
Davis said. At the same time he Is
fatty against immigration from any
oriental country, or against immigra-
tion of members Of any race which
does not assimilate with Americans.

COW to Clear Title to Millions

MOSCOW, November 13.-In an ef-
fort to straighten out legal technical
tiles with regard to Russian and
American trade, due to the recent re-
vival of the Russian cooperative bus
mess, commission of American
lawyers has reached Moscow on the
invitation of the cooperative leaders
Their work involves Strengthening
out the title to many millions of dol
lars worth of goods or money in the
United States, held by the co-opera-
tive societies prior to the bolshevik
revolution. and to consider present
and future trade possibilities. Col.
Victor h. Ruehl. an attorney author
lied by the New York state and the
federal courts in New York to accept
affidavits in Russia: Maj. J. A. Willis.
attorney for the United States War
Department. which dealt extensively
10 the revolution, and Charles A.
Marshall of New York counsel in
America for the Russian co-opera-
tives, compose the commission. With
them is George Link of the Russian
department of the National City Bank
of New York, the depositary OF the
cooperative societies.
The co-operatives have long con
tended that they are separate from
the bolshevik government and that,
therefore, whatever Russian govern,
ment property is held in escrow in
America because of debt reputation
they should be independent of it
However. due to the non-recognition
of Russia by the United States, no
proof obtained in Russia regarding
this view could be recognized in the
American courts until Col Ruehl was
authorized to perform notarial pow
ers here.
The cooperative societies contend
that they are fundamentally private
organizations. They are just observ-
ing their twenty-fifth anniversary in
Moscow and the board of directors
includes nearly SO per cent of the
same personnel as prior to the boil
shevik revolution.
The present government plans that
the cooperative societies shall re-
ceive even larger independent power
than they now have. 1t is hoped that
they will conclude agreements with
the United States similar in i'm
portance to the recently formed
Anglo Russian Grain Export Com
pany.
