BOSTON. Sept. 21-tR- Henry B. Blackmer, 30, Colorado million aire who fled this country 27 years ago to escape testifying in the Tea pot Dome scandal, arrived here to- day by plane from France, Immi- grafton officials reported.

 Subsequently, Blackmer paid S60,000 in fines for contempt of court and S3,670,784 for back in- come taxes.
