 Not all the high-powered law yers retainable by the Woolworth millions can get her in earlier. according to the Immigration Bureau.
 To get into the country, Bar bara must be charged to the Danish quota like any would-be immigrant from Denmark. This will not be difficult, since the Danish quota-like all quotas ex- cept Turkish and Spanish-is wide open.
 Then she must apply to the nearest U. s. consul for visa for permanent residence. To get that visa, the Countess-heiress must show that she is in good health and will not become public charge.
 Once admitted to the country, she must file intention" or take out her first papers. In due time she must appear before a fed eral court for naturalization. But full five years must elapsc after she has established per- manent residence.
 Immigration officials say the Hutton case will give them no worry, because the law is com pletely inelastic - sometimes too much SO to suit them.
 Rail Wages
 The railroad unions are now taking a secret poll on the wage cut barley that meets in Chicago late this month; behind which is much hot feeling among the Brotherhood leaders that they were double crossed" last spring by the employers.
 This may or may not be true. The rail executives say it is not true, and that they were open and above board in their wage-cut maneuvers.
 Early in April, they claim J. J. Pelley of New Haven, president of the Association of American Rail- roads, called a meeting in his Washington offices of Brother hood and company executives.

 Counter Offer
 During this recess the labor chiefs formulated counter pro- posal which they laid before the employers when the conference resumed. The plan provided:

The Cut That Cut
 But-on April 29, tn rail execu- tives met in Chicago and without further ado announced a Is per cent wage redpction.
 This step was taken, however, only after sharp protests by Will lard and Policy. They warned that the move would gravely jeopardize the chances of getting any relief legislation from Congress.
 Gentlemen" remonstrated Pelley, you may wind up by getting neither government loans nor the wage cut"
 Other executives pooh-poohed these fears, insisting that Con- gress would authorize REC loans notwithstanding the wage-cut an-
