LONDON, August 11.-After the first
week of operation, observers agree in
commencing the new scheme of Amer
lean examination of emigrants for the
United States on this side. The Lon
don papers headline the story NO
More Ellis Island" and express the
hope that the success of the expert
ment will insure it's continuance per-
manently. Seven American immigra-
ton inspectors have been stationed
for a week now at their posts in Dub
lin, Queenstown, London, Southamp-
ton, Glasgow, Liverpool and Belfast.
They say the experiment is progress
ing well.
The idea of the scheme is TO abolish
the necessity of British immigrants
going through the delays and ineon-
veniences of Ellis Island, which have
been a sore spot with Great Britain
ever since Sir Auckland Geddes pub
lshed his famous Ellis Island report
Under the new provisions all second
and third class passengers, who plan
to stay any length of time in America
are examined at the ports of en-
barkatfon by American immigration
officials and medical advisers, specially
dispatched here and stationed at the
ports for that purpose.
These officials are empowered to
issue visas here after the examina-
ton. these visas, except in extraord-
mary cases, give the holders right to
enter the United States without halt
ing at Ellis Island.
Such an arrangement long has been
felt necessary, particularly in view OF

GERMANS OFFERED
AID IN ENGRAVING
Poland Declines Responsible
ity for Illegal Presence
of TeutonS.
BY the Associated Press.

sby the Associated Press.
WARSAW, August 1.-THE Polish
government has officially notified the
German government that, although it
declines any responsibility for the
consequences of the illegal presence
of Germans in Polish territory, it is
ready to give every assistance to the
German authorities to bring their cit
iZens out of Poland into Germany with
the least Inconvenience to them.
The acting minister of foreign af
fairs on Saturday sent note to Ber
lin dealing with the question of the
repatriation of Germans in Poland
who, after the plebiscites of 1920 and
1921, chose to retain their German
nationality and of the Poles in Ger
many who similarly chose to retain
Polish citizenship.
Fail to Conform.
The note declares that a part Of
the Germans in Poland who made
this choice, under articles ii and II
of the German-Polish convention con-
cluded under the auspices of the
League of Nations at Vienna August
80, 1924, according to which they
were to transfer their domiciIes from
Poland to Germany before August /
1925, have not conformed to these
stipulations of the convention and up
TO the present have not left Polish
territory. The note asserts that the
Poles electing to retain their Polish
citizenship under the same agreement
have left Germany within the period
fixed, ending August l, conforming to
notices received from the German
authorities. The note continues:
The Polish government emphasizes
that from August l those Germans in
Poland who opted to return to their
country became foreigners sojourn-
ing illegally in Polish territory, and
for this reason they are subject to all
measures provided in international
usage respecting persons of one state
being In the territory of another state
without permission therefor.
Ready TO Cooperate.
The Polish government draws to
the attention of the German govern
ment paragraph 4 of article IL of the
Vienna convention, which SAYS: The
contracting parties are in agreement
that optants who have not conformed
TO the obligation to leave Poland with
in the period provided for by the pres
ent article may be conducted to the
frontier and handed over to the Ger
men authorities. Access to Polish ter
ritory may be definitely refused to
them "
The Warsaw government concludes
by affirming that it is ready to CO.
operate fully with the German govern
ment for the purpose of assuring
proper organization for repatriating
the remainder of those Germans in
Poland who have elected to return to
their own country.

There is no question: the state

of Germans from Poland, but there

elected to become Polish or German
citizens, and who now in legal con-
