INFLUX OF IMMIGRANTS
is DISTURBING FRANCE
Multitude Turned Back at Ellis
Island Seek Entry-Oppose
Southern Europeans.

By Radio to The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copy right. 1924.
PARIS, May 20.-Disputes arising
in Washington over the Japanese
exclusion provision in the immigra-
tion bill call the attention of France to
her own immigration problem, which
resembles in some ways that of the
United States.
Multitudes of foreigners turned
back at Ellis Island are trying to
come here to settle Certain critics
speak with alarm of a veritable
Mediterranean invasion of settlers.
In all frontier provinces the situation
is regarded as disquieting.
France realizes that she needs
immigrants, but she wishes to choose
between candidates rather than ac-
cept an indiscriminate flood of new
corners. Moreover, she objects to
the principle "once a Roman, always
Roman" She wishes to absorb
foreign settlers as fast as possible.
In certain regions, notably Tunis.
Italians try to conserve their original
nationality, and thus avoid service
in the French army.

HUTCHINS WILL CASE
ENDS IN COMPROMISE
Four -Million-Dollar Estate to Be
Divided Equally Among
Four Heirs.
REAL ESTATE TO BE SOLD
Judges Decision to Delay Believed
to Have Caused Settlement.

The twelve-year litigation over the
900 estate of Stilson Hutchins.
former Washington publisher, who
died in April. 1912, ended today wit.
a compromise agreement between the
widow, Mrs. Rose Keeling Hutchins;
the sons, Walter S. Hutchins and Lee
Hutchins, and the granddaughter,
Mildred Rogers Penn, wife of Ramon
A. Penn of Boston, granddaughter of
the deceased. All the litigants with
drew their opposition to the admis-
sion to probate of the will of Mr.
Hutchins, dated in 1908, and letters
Justice Frederick l.. Siddons to
Thomas NJ Cuttings. Charles H. Mer-
illat and Myer Cohen and their bond
was fixed at $4,000.
According to the terms of the COM
promise which are gathered from a
deed TO the real estate which was re-
corded from the widow and heirs to
the administrators as trustees, Mrs.
HutchinS is to receive one-fourth of
the estate and like amount is to go
to each of the sons and to the grand
daughter. 1t is estimated that each
share will be slightly in excess of
Sl.000,000. Under the deed the trus-
tees are to take possession of the
possible and to distribute the pro-
ceeds in proportions named, among
the four benefciaries The personal
estate will be distributed at once in
like manner. it was stated.
The compromise was agreed by
Attorneys William G. Johnson, Myer
Cohen and Frank j. Hogan for Lee
Hutchins; by Charles H. Merillat for
Walter S. Hutchins, and by Thomas
NJ. Cuttings and George P. Hoover for
the widow.
The first trial of the contest of the
Hutchins estate established a record
for civil proceeding in the District
court. occupying the total of five
months. The will Of 1910 was set
aside and on appeal a new trial was
granted. Mrs. Hutchins then offered
the 1908 will and opposition devel-
oped to that. Justice SiddonS few
weeks ago declined to hear the second
contest before the summer recess and
postponed it until October. This is
supposed to have expedited the
agreement among the beneficiaries to
settle their differences.
