Nearly Million Refugees

Nansen passports are issued or recognized by governments gen. erally to refugees asylumed with in their territory.
 Judge Hanson, in his annual report to the league of nations, estimates the number of Russian refugees at 100000, Armenian re- fuges at 25O,OOO Assyrians and Assyro- -Chaldeans at 15,000 and Saar refugees at 4000.
 Officials estimate that the total of Nansen passports issued, at probably 150,000.
 In other words, not all refugees ask for the Nansen passports, which are only needed when the refugees intend to travel from one country to another. If they stay in the country in which they have taken refuge. their only need is a permit of residence. Geneva estimates France alone has given asylum to some 200,- 900 Russian refugees.
 Jail Threatens Many
 Despite efforts of the Nansen office to induce countries where refugees are located to give th em naturalization rights, some gov ernments eXpell refugees on the slightest rreteyts.
 A refugee found penniless in a public park is ejected. He is i'm prisoned by the country to which he is ejected. Fleeing back tc the land that expelled him, he is sent to jail for violating the or der of expulsion.
 Hence human beings, men without a country, outcasts desir ed by nobody spend their lives in being dispatched, like cattle back and forth across national frontiers. There are refugees who have been imprisoned l5 tim es for the non-observance of ex pulsion orders.
 Loyal, inoffensive people are forced to hide, lead the lives of outlaws" the Nansen office re- ports, "and are finally driven to desperate acts, and often to sui eide"

In spite of the fact that he

of reproof addressed to him last
Friday by II of the Drukman muir

the removal of District Attorney

The grand jurors had used
strong language in criticizing the
Governors complete exoneration
Of Mr.. Geoghan. and the Cover
nor's language was even stronger.
The grand jurors had said the
Governor "condoned incompetence
and failed to give any adequate
justification for dismisSing the
charges.
The Governor replied that the
grand jurors letter was abusive
and misleading" and "wi1fully" so.
The Governor wrote, addressing
Horace N. Dugherty, foreman of
the grand jury:
"YOur letter is a renewed ef-
fort to give publicity to charges
fully and cOnvincingly disproved
at the trial.
Having failed completely to

Last season a one-handed pianist
flashed across the musical horizon,
but next week a pianist with both
arms amputated just below the
elbows will give a recital at Town
Hall, New York city.
Gino PalmiSano, the pianist
without hands, plays with his ell
bows and claims to play music
by DoniZetti, PaderewSki, Liszt,
Weber, Chopin and Verdi. Advance
notices do not state whether he
uses his nose to strike some Of the

Encouraged by the reception Of
opera in English during the spring

Bartered Bride" (Smetana), and
"Gianni Schicchi" (PuccinD.
The opera season of the Chi
cago company will begin October
81 and last for six weeks. The
early start will enable the APPEAR
ance of some of the Metropolitan
stars. The repertoire will include
some operas that have not been
heard often recently, including:
"Othello" (VerdD: Louise"
(Charpentier); "'Thais" (MaSsa-
nett; Samson and Delilah"
(Saint-SaenS. and "Mefistofele"
(Boito).
The famous "Intermezzo" from
"Cavalleria RuSticana" (Mascag-

which appears above, has made its
composer famous as a concert
number even if it had never been
heard in the opera.
The "Intermezzo" breatheS q
message of peace and love which
does not fit into the mood of the
opera except as a contrast to the
scenes of tragedy and horror. The
selection is introduced between
the two scenes of this one-act
opera.

FARMERS FLEE
DROUGHT AREA
FOR HOMES
International News Service


Migration of tens Of thousands
Of farm families from the drought
areas of the West has presented
a new problem, WPA and Resettle
ment Administration officials re
vealed today.
More than so per cent of the
agricultural lands of the nation
have been hit by the excessive
droughts of 1884 and 1886, and
less extensive drought in 1880.
A total of 1,163 counties, of the
2,078 counties in "a drought
States, have been classified as
emergency drought territories,
more than one-third Of the ma
tons 3,070 counties.
To West Coast
From the DakotaS, Montana,
and Wyoming particularly, thou.
sands Of families have loaded
their personal belongings in the
family cars and headed for other
lands, chiefly to the West Coast.
Joseph L. Daley, assistant Reset
tlement Administrator, said today:
"Our reports show that more
than 10000 families from the
drought areas are rowing up
and down the California coast,
looking for some place to land.
"They don't know where they
are going, or what they are
going to do. There are more
thousands in Oregon and Wash
ingtOn-
I'VE have set up information
service to tell them where farm
lands are available, where they
may be able to find work. Our
service can tell them what kind
of farm lands they will find, and
what kind Of farming cOndi-
tiOnS.
1--WE are doing everything we
can to discourage farmers from
migrating-frOm leaving their
own States at least. Every State
has its own troubles, and every
newcomer means more of bur-
den. Most of them can be re-
settled better in their own
States. We can aid some in re-
settlement and rural rehabilita-
tiOn-we are aiding thousands
of farm families-but we can't
help them if they don't know
where they are going, or what
they are going to do when they
get there. We can help them in
rehabilitation only where our
service knows they have a
chance to make good and again
become Self-suppOrting."
While thousands of farmers
have sought the aid of the RA
information service in finding new
homes, more thousands are just
drifting" from the drought areas,
according to officials.

RELIEF LEVY
DENOUNCED
AS UNFAIR

COLLEGE PARK, Md, Jan. %.
Business men in Prince Georges
county plan a campaign to bring
about changes in the State sales
tax system now used to care for
direct relief in the State.
Members of the County Elk
change Club and the Chamber
Of Commerce object particularly
to the "unfairnesS of the present
system of taxing businesses l per
cent on gross receipts" saying
that in many cases over 10 per
cent of their profit margin is
being taxed to provide relief
funds.
At a meeting of the tax COM
mittee of the Exchange Club yes
terday in College Park, resolu-
ton was adopted asking the gov
ernor not to call a special session
of the legislature until after the
present relief fund has been
exhausted.
Need Questioned
The committee indicated it Is
not certain that relief in the State
was really necessary, and that by
holding up emergency measures
until an emergency actually arises,
. the legislature would be able to
make a more accurate survey OF
relief needs.
That direct relief may be I'M
necessary is the opinion of many
of the farmers of the lower
county, who were Handicapped in
their harvesting last fall because
of q lack of labor in spite of the
fact that many farm hands were
on relief rolls.
The tax committee, consisting
of Samuel Harvey, Hyattsville,
chairman: DR.. Robert McCul-
Tough. Cheverly: Walter Green,
and E. F. zalesak, OF College Park,
also expressed dissatisfaction with
the present system because the
city of Baltimore is granted IS
per cent of the total State funds,
although paying only a small part
of the total amount.
Utility Tax Urged
In that regard. the committee
has recommended that in the
event of an emergency, the State
place the tax upon the public
utilities rather than on small bust
neSseS. In that way, they said,
the metropolitan area, which re-
ceives the greatest benefit from
the State relief funds, will be the
ones paying the higher tax.
The recommendations Of the
tax committee are to be presented
to the business men at joint
meeting of the Exchange Club and
the chamber of commerce Mon
day in the Terrapin Inn at Col
lege Park.
