Here, Mr.. Powers said, he
hoped to start recouping part
of the life savings he spent in
the long trip to Russia, where
he saw his son draw a 1O-year
prison sentence as a convicted
American spy.

Richmond merchant paid

Speranza of Richmond paid
one. The Richmond merchant
offered to pay for Mr.. Powers

Mr.. Powers said he and his
friend Sol Curry, who accom-
panied the Powers family to
Moscow, would add up total ex-
penses today-and I'll prob
ably be 5000 to 5000 in the

Mr.. Curry arrived here together
late yesterday afternoon. 1t
was a quiet homecoming-no
crowds, no noise, few we'll
wishers. Pound, a community
nestled in the Southwest Vir-
ginia hills, is a quiet town.
Mr. Powers was greeted by
reporters with news that a So
Wet magazine, Ogonyok, had
claimed that his pilot son was
money-mad and that the Pow
ers clan had exploited the
pilots troubles to make money.

way, they say. the willful snug
gler is more often caught
through a tip from abroad than
by what he puts on his declara-
ton.
The Customs view is that
while oral declarations are
more practical at the Canadian
and Mexican borders, the writ
ten declaration helps speed the
inspection procedure at air.
ports and docks. The written
declaration also provides a
flrmer basis for prosecution of
the willful smuggler.
Travel experts are virtually
unanimous in the view that it
will be a long time before the
United States abandonS the
written baggage declaration.
Trademark Confusion
One popularity which causes
widespread confusion is the law
allowing trademark owners to
register their marks with the
Treasury Department and bar
import of items bearing those
marks without specific consent
Of the trademark owner. Some
trademark owners permit i'm
port of limited quantities for
personal use.
An example If the traveller
brings in two bottles of Chanel
No. 5, the Customs man is re-
quired, by this law, to seize the
second bottle. But the wise
traveller knows he can bring in
as much Chanel No. 5 as he
wishes-as long as he has oblit-
Grated the. trademark. This is
not a sneaky trick; it is legal
and above board. It's the trade
mark or trade name-not the
product-which the law covers.
A White House commission
two years ago urged abandon
ment of the trademark law as
it applies to the traveller, but
the move received little SYM
pathy in Congress.
Travellers Told Rights
1t is such confusion as this
which has led the Customs Bu-
reau to its campaign to inform
the traveller of the law-and of
his rights.
The United States allows its
returning citizens to bring back
5000 worth of duty-free mer-
chandise if they have been
away 48 hours. They can do
this once a month.
Each six months, they get
another allowance of $500, on
top of the 5000, if they have
been out of the country at least
IL days.
America is thus one of the
most liberal countries to come
home to.
1t is also one of the strictest.

But Africans still have no vote,

Acquiescence Unlikely
There is about as much
chance OF the Union giving in
to the United Nations pressure
on South West Africa as there
is of Florida importing Cali
fornia orange Juice. On 13 oc-
casionS since 1946 South Africa
has refused to place the terri
tory under international trus-
teeship or to submit reports to
the General Assembly.
The South African position is
that the League of Nations
mandate ended with the demise
Of that organization and that
the Union now is solely respon-
sible for the territory, whose
white inhabitants are repre-
setend in South Africa's parlia-
ment.
The opinion of the Interna-
tional Court Of Justice, handed
down in 1850, is that South
Africa is not obliged to place
the territory under trusteeship
but that the Union should sub

for many years and knows her
subject well. Don Arrest, who
was swimming instructor at the
camp last summer will also be
here and show some movies he
took at the camp. None of the

of interest in them. After the
program refreshments will be
served,
Sunday morning all scouts will
attend church in uniform. Each
scout will attend the church Of

leader and taken into church as
