MIGRATION OF

Germans Ordered Back to

tiles have inaugurated measures to
halt at its source the mass mlgra-
ton Of German colonists, who desire
to make new homes in Canada and
South America, but who have been
unable to arrange for passports.
immigration difficulties have
dashed hopes of thousands of the
colonists to migrate to America and,
although some have departed, many
have been ordered back to their
former homes to relieve the oonges-
ton of temporary settlements in the
Moscow suburbs.
Scenes Are Pitiful
Scenes of anguish and blank con-
sternationWere enacted in the bleak,
muddy suburbs of the Soviet capital
when the news spread among more
than ten thousand peasants that
they would be hustled back to their
broken homes, mostly in Siberia and
some in Crimea, the Volga region
and the Caucasus.
Some Oh them, Win wives, cLlldTen
and the few worldly belongings they
wished to take with them to the new
world, had been waiting for months.
The colonists themselves are be-
wildered by the development. They
had been given to understand that
friends in Berlin and in Montreal
were negotiating for the necessary
foreign Visas. 1t had been an
nounced, too, that the Soviet gov
eminent had agreed to give them
passports, merely exacting the 22O
ruble fee.
Voice Resentment
Sentiment among the colonistS
naturally is directed primarily
against the Soviet officials. They
voice resentment and aStonishment
that the German visas were not
forthcoming more promptly, thus
giving the Moscow authorities JUS
tification for sending them back.
A few among the German peas
ants, despite their bad plight, feel
that Moscow had little alternative in
the matter. The Soviet capital and
It's environs are overcrowded Sc
riously; the food supplies in the
suburbs are limited and carefully
planned to last for the winter.

eeding day he had gone through the ordeal Of
his first funeral ceremony. Under the best
conditions this is trying but why should he be
SO severely upset?
It was not grief It was realization that
in death we have true measure Of whether
people like us or not The full force of this
had rushed in upon him when the group Of
neighbors turned to leave the grave, not ap-
preciably affected, and the only words the
young theologue heard were not that the

Closest neighbor looked toward the muddy

develop some guides for people so that we will
not have to wait for the reaper to find whether
we are liked?
GENERAL years before this incident young
woman was spending a few days at the
home of friends on the Pacific Coast. She was
a widow of only few days and her friends
were thoughtfully bending every effort to buoy
her up. Touched by their thoughtful atten-
tions, day just before the evening meal,
she retired to her room and composed one of
the most popular songs the world mas KNOWN
1.-THE End of Perfect Day." It was not writ
ten as a song of sadness but song of thanks
giving. When you hear Carrie Jacobs Bond
play her composition it has rapid tempo to
convey the thanksfulness in the music which
offsets the undercurrent of grief in the words;
a song of thanksgiving for people we like who
remain when loved ones have gone.
1t does not take such painful events as these
to reveal to the trained observer what there is
about people that makes us like them. Emerg-
ing from the vast amount of psychological re-
search of the recent years is the concept that
we like people who buoy up our own regard for
ourself. This may indicate q basic selfishness,
in q sense, in human nature. but on second
reflection it shows the faith and confidence
most people have in themselves. People idealize

 In New Jerseys Third Torch Killing

The piece of shirting was so dis colored from fire and water that detectives could not ascertain what color it had been.
 Late last night County Medical Examiner Harrison Martland took charge of the body to perform an autopsy.
 The body was discovered by Frank Ferrara, watchman at the dump, who said he saw two men run away from the automobile just after he noticed it was afire. Fer rara said the men got into another automobile parked at the side of the road and drove toward New York.
 The watchman then turned in q fire alarm.
 The sedan was just off the road. Police said it apparently had been driven into the dump through q nearby opening in the fence.

LONE TREE IS ALL
 LEFT OF ATLANTIS
French Biologist Finds Gnarled Remnant Of "LOSt Continent"

Paris. Aug. 10 (UP) - A sticky looking tree, with bitter fruit, is all that remains today of the fabulous lost continent of Atlantis. according to Pierre Mile. noted French geolo- gist. He declares this tree still grows in Morocco, Madeira. the Azores and the Canary Islands.
 Writing in the Depeche Coloniale. Mile asserts that the hardness of this tree, which can flourish in sandy areas. with almost no water, is what has enabled it to survive the span of centuries while all other flora and fauna of this legendary land were wiped away. The technl- cal name Of the tree is argan but It is more commonly called by the peo- pie who have seen it ironWood.
 The fact that the tree is found in sections of the world which French geologists generally agree either bounded Or formed part of the At lantis described by Plato and Bacon is given as evidence that it must once have fourished in more bril-
  age of the lost continent, Mile ex- plains that the argan. dwarfed and embttered by it's struggle for exist ence. is now so crooked that it often resembles a serpent.
 The argan is similar to an olive tree except that the berry is dark CT green and its taste is bitter It's nut, however. contains oil which young Berber girls still extract by primitive methods. This is tedi- ous work and generally takes two brown hands eight days to squeeze out a litre of oil for use in making Berber women more beautiful.
 After the tree is no longer pro- ductive it is generally cut down by the Berbers, and used for trewood and in the more humble homes it is utilized for the making of chairs and ta bIeS
