EUROPEAN TRAVEL
 ID ]. $. INCREASES
But America Still Sends More Visitors Abroad

Washington, Sept. P - Euro pean tourist travel to the United States is showing marked increase, w. w. Husband, acting secretary of labor, discovered today in checking immigration service re- turns. During the fiscal year end- ing June 30, last, the immigration service allowed 56,614 aliens to en- ter the United States on pleasure or business mission, for a tenn porary period. The previous year showed such admissions only to a total of 35,326.
 "A part of the reason for the tourist travel increase is unques- tionably due to new legislation, which allows such visitors to enter without making unpleasant stays at Ellis Island or other port inn migration stations" Mir. Husband said. However, steamship con- panies are also campaigning for more travel to the United States on the part of Europeans who in- tend to make only temporary stay, because the steamship lines desire to replace the business lost since the quota law cut down the great immigration rush.
 "The United States still furnishes many more tourists to the outer world than come to it, notwith- standing the noted increase. Dur. ing the last fiscal year, the immi' grafton service gave out more than 100000 permits to aliens who re- side in the United States, under which, they made visits to other countries, and the number of na- tive or nautralized Americans trav- cling abroad of course is much larger than this each year"

CONFLICTING STORIES
 TOLD BY HALL WITNESSES
Prosecutor in New Jersey Murder Plans to Question Others
 This Week.

Somerville, N. J.. Sept. 2 P - Henry Stevens. brother of Mrs. Frances Steven Hall, today contin- ued to hold the attention of those Investigating the four year old Hall- Mills murder mystery.
 Three persons, said by Stevens to have been on a fishing trip with him near Lavalette the night his brother-in-law, the Rev. Edward W. Hall, and Mrs. Eleanor Mills were shot to death in De Russey's lane near New Brunswick, were questioned by Special Prosecutor Simpson yesterday at Toms River. county seat of Ocean county.
 Lavalette and New Brunswick are 50 miles apart and Stevens has maintained he was fishing on the beach until 1O:3o o'clock. The lovers were killed between 9:So and 10:30.
 "A very important fact' was disclosed by William Eggar, Chi cago real estate dealer, who spends his summers at Lavalette, simpson said.
 Tie stories related by Eggar and Arthur Applegate, a carpenter ot West Manolocking, differed at sev- eral points, according to Simpson. A 16 year old boy, John Height, was also questioned.
 Simpson refused to say whether or not their statements, which were attested, bore out Stevens alibi, which was accepted by those in charge of the initial investiga- ton four years ago.
 Simpson declared additional wit nesses would be examined at Toms River some time this week.

CALIFORNIA; WARM
 PRIMARY

California being inhabited by Hiram Johnson, a primary, there naturally takes on the color of sul- phur. The battle for the Republi- can nomination, just concluded after a period of strenuosity could not help being a phenomenal exhl- bition of primary fficiency.
 Senator Samuel M. Shortridge, in seeking renomination, had two op- ponents, Judge Robert NJ. Clarke and Major Walter F. Lineberger. His main trouble, however, was Hiram Johnson, who while sup porting Clarke, tried to knock the props from under Shortridge. Shortridge had the unstinted sup port of the Republican regulars, was the accredited Coolidge man. and was one of the senators who l had voted for entry into the World Court. In the opinion of Hiram Johnson this latter was the chief | issue of the campaign.
 It is a peculiar coincidence, If such it can be called, that the remnant of the Progressives, of which Hiram Johnson continues a leader in California, should be op- posed in principle to the World Court. Or can it be said, perhaps, that the opposition is one of ex- pediency, a vote-catching opposl- tion, or one merely to have some thing to issue about? At any rate, adhesion to the World Court is regarded by many sincere and
 influential citizens as the quintes- sence of progress; yet we find Hi- ram Johnson and the Hearst press,
 and all others seeking a point of
 opposition against "entangling al-
 
 lances," yet calling themselves
 "progressive,' who seriously op-
 pose American adhesion to the
 Court.
 At bottom, the pro and con of
 Court adhesion is an issue within
 both major parties. Although the
 resolution for adhesion was passed
 under the Coolidge administration
 the Democrats in Congress were on the band wagon rather strongly
 and the reservations under whicf the United States signified hel Willingness to join were drawn uI
