BurrO Makes Up
For His Disgrace

EUGENE, Ore, July 27. W.H -
A member of the burro family put
a blemish on the reputation of that
species of pack animal as far as
-footedness is concerned when
he fell 500 feet over precipice in
the CASCADE mountains recently.
The little animal set new record
for hardihood, however.
: Dee Wright, packer and guide,
told the story when he came into
town here recently. While travel
ing a narrow trail the burro slipped
and fell over the edge of the cliff
for almost sheer drop of 500 feet.
Then he rolled another 500 and lodg-
ed in clump of trees on the noun
tainside.
When released from the limbs,
between which he was jammed, the
tough little beast leaped to his feet.
The next day he was back in the
pack train and carrying his accus.

SMUGGLING OF
ALIENS SHOWS
BIG INCREASE
immigration Service Is
Making 1t Difficult To
Beat Law.
BY CECIL OWEN
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent)

WASHINGTON, July 81. U.D -
Smugglers who formerly carried on
a lucrative trade through an ex-
tonsive traffic in aliens whom they
landed in the remote inlets and coves
of the United States far flung coast
line are disappearing from the high
seas, immigration officials believed.
Combined efforts of the coast
guard and immigration service have
steadily reduced smuggling of
aliens by the water route, although
figures indicate an increase in
aliens entering this country by land.
More than $4,000 smuggled aliens
were captured last year by the bor-
der patrol.
By far the largest percentage of
aliens smuggled into this country
come by way of the land borders
ON the north and south, entering
from Canada and Mexico, with a
small fraction of the. total being
landed by smugglers on the Florida
coast, officials stated.
Most aliens smuggled into this
country by vessel have come from
southern Europe, the Cape Verde
Islands, Cuba and the Bahamas. 1t
was customary for the aliens to pay
about 5000 head to the suggler.
Marry Foreigners
Smugglers have been known also
to marry Cuban or other foreign
girls and bring them in legally as
their wives. Sweethearts here of
foreign girls sometimes paid to have
them. smuggled through the immigra-
tion barriers.
One of the most serious problems
confronting the immigration service
now, Harris said, is the widespread
use of faxed documents by which
aliens are enabled to present to
American consuls abroad false pass
ports and birth certificates. This
practice has become so extensive
lately, he said, that it is battling
both the immigration service and
state department.
While official figures indicate an
ever-increasing tide of smuggled
aliens is coming over the U. S. border
lines, Harris declared the increased
efficiency of the border patrol has
resulted in more captures. In this
way the number of seizures is rising,
but, Harris said, smuggling has not
increased proportionately.

on France on August 8. The follow
ing day, Great Britain declared wal
on Germany and President Wilson
proclaimed the neutrality of the
United States.
Army Reduced
Since the war, France has ma
terially decreased the strength of
her peace-time army and has short
ened the length of compulsory ser
vice of military conscripts from
three years to one year. The active
army is of 100000 strength today
compared with the army of 650,00(
men before mobilization in 1914.
At the outbreak of the war
France modified 100000 men in
her army, but the full strength to-
day if all the soldiers were modified
would be 100000.
The peacetime navy today con-
tains $500 officers and men, com.
pared with the peacetime navy of
$4,000 men in 1914. Aviation has
increased from 5000 to 10000.
1t was only recently that the
French government was able to fig
ure its exact war loss in men, for
there are still $500 officers and
250,4 soldiers of whom all trace
has disappeared. They are now be
ing carried as dead, although some
may still be alive in other countries
where they remained after being
taken prisoner.
The French army lost $4,000 Off
GERS and 1921, 200 men killed; 1894
$50 injured and 4,9ss,2lS sick as a
result of service. In the navy the
