RUSSIANS BALKED
BYU. S. AL|ENLAW
Many of 5000, 600 Refugees
Had Hoped to Enter
This Country.
By the Associated Press.


BERLIN, July 31.-America's new
immigration law is a bitter disap-
pointment to the 100000 Russian
refugees scattered throughout Eu-
ropean countries. Under the new law
only LOO Russians may enter Amer
lean ports annually, and not more
than ITO shall enter in any one
month. g-
At one time there were believed to
be about 100000 Russian refugees in
Germany alone. The number is now
much reduced, as the high cost of
living forced many or them to seek
other countries where exchange con-
dftions are more favorable.
In Paris, Berlin. Srague, Munich.
Dresden, Bucharest, Belgrade and
Rome large Russian colonies are en-
deavoring to keep up their traditions
in the hope of being able to return
one day to the land which is so dear
to them. Every rumor of Bolshevist
collapse Is eagerly received by the
groups which still believe conditions
similar to those which existed before
the war will be restored in Russia,
and that they will be able to return
and claim the property which Lenin
and his associates seized in the name
of the Communist government.
Young ExiIes Impatient.
But the younger exiles are i'm
patient over the long delay, and each
month there is less disposition to ac-
cept the promises of Ofd-line political
leaders that the Bolsheviks will be
overthrown.
Many of the younger Russians had
entertained hopes of emigrating to
the United States. Medical, law and
engineering students in various uni
versities OF central and western Eu-
rope were planning on an invasion
of the New World on the completion
of their courses. This hope is dashed
by the immigration raw just enacted.
Russians of all classes are return
ing to their homeland every time
there is the slightest rumor OF bet
tered conditions there. 1t is their
desire to go to Russia rather than
anywhere else, but they do SO with
much difficulty, as their countryinen
of anti-Bolshevist tendencies have
great contempt for Russians who ac-
cept employment under the Com
munist regime. 1t frequently means
the breaking of all family ties ana
the severing of old friendships.
Soviet Seeks fouths' Aid.
Soviet Russia needs the assistance
of all the talented Russians VINO are
in exile and is carrying on an &C
tive campaign to win the youngsters
over to communistic principles and
induce them to return Inc CoHl-
munists also are working hard to
create feeling against those exiles
who will not return to their homeland
on the ground that they are mon
archical and undemocratic. This is
true of ONLY small percentage, per-
haps, of the refugees. Monarchlsts
have been in far less danger IN RUS
siaL than liberals who refused to sup
port communistic doctrines. Men
shevists and social revoiutlonisIs %
the right. men who were sociallstlc
without being conmunistic and re-
fused to follow the Bolshevlsts into
communism, have suffered worse at

made any pretense of being liberals.

EXPERTS URGE CODE
\ TO PROTECT BUSINESS

Byithe Associated Press.
GENEVA, July 31.-International
eyterts assigned to study draft arti-
cliff for a convention on unfair COM
petite in business have forwarded a
self of principles to the economic COM
mtxtee of the League of Nations.
th&t states which are members of the
UHi Ion for the Protection of Industrial
Phsperty should be asked to assure
legal redress, including penal reme-
diks to nationals of other contracting
coMntries in case of fraudulent. use
ofstrademarks.
The experts hold that suitable penal
mHhsures should be framed to prevent
thu fraudulent or misleading use Of
trade designations other than trade
mSrks, such as names. styles of firms,
holdings of printed matter, emb1ems,
ets They believe that such measures
sff6uld apply not only, to the repro
ddEtion Of designations or pictorial
Representations, or both, but also to
cofbrabls limitations of the same, as
wdl as to false indications of origin
or+sof identity of the producer, manu-
faEaurer or merchant, whenever such
prXctioes might cause confusion as to
thu origin of the goods in question.
Yurthermore, the recommendations
insist that the provisions of the Union
foS the Protection Of Industrial Prop
ertv should be especially applied in
thE case of seizures at frontiers OF
iniportant products which carry an
illegal trademark or commercial name.
Ithe experts also suggest that the
final convention should prohibit the
Registration or unauthorized use of
national emblems or arms, of Official
haiamarks or signs indicating official
wSfranty, and also of any colorado
limitations, as trademarks or as parts
pfftrademarks. This regulation should
apply only in the case of goods simi-
laE to the goods for which the hall
mark or sign in question would i'm
ply a guarantee.
Finally, the experts believe that
siGnatory states should forbid the
Registration and provide for the can
ceNinE of any trademark which is
notorious in trade as mark owned
byta national of another state. Ag-
grieved persons should be allowed
fiVS years in which to apply for the

The advisability of transferring the
Inhabitants to the mainland of Luzon
was discussed with the islanders, but
they decided that they preferred to
remain on Babuyan, although most
of their corn and camote fields were
destroyed by the eruption. They were
terrorized by the flow of rocks, ashes
and steam from the volcano, but
they could not be persuaded to leave
their only desire being to get to the
northern end of the island, where,
they believed, they would be safe

in slaughtering deer and other game.
He described Mexican officials as de-
termined to prevent Americans from

of the northwestern states. Ilnker
predicted that with the opening OF
the Fall hunting season no hunters

No Increase In Cost.
The decision will not increase the
expense of the bonus, as the slight
increase in amounts to be received by
the veterans eventually, on account
OF payments upon adjusted service
certificates becoming due, will be on
set by the saving in cost of comput-
ing for deduction these relatively
small sums.
This is the second decision OF the
Government Of such a liberal character
that veterans will feel sure they are
going to receive every benefit that Con-
gress intended they should have. The
frst was made by President Coolidge
when he ordered work to proceed upon
the payment Of the bonus to the vet
erans, regardless of the fact that Con-
gress, before its recent adjournment,
had only authorized appropriations, and
failed at the last moment to actually
pass a law making tho authorized ap-
propriations available. The real story
Of the second liberal Interpretation Of
the act is that veterans and their de-
pendents are going to be given the
benefit of the doubt and that they are
going to receive the liberal adjustment
of compensation to which they arc en-
