Entertainment EXODUS OF ALIENS LESS NOTICEABLE Husband Says Present Immigrants Have Tendency to Remain in United States. Aliens who pass the tests of exist- ing restriction laws for entrance into the United States are exhibiting a lendency to remain in the country that varies markedly with tendencies of a few years ago. W. W. Husband, commissioner general of immigra- C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1923. tion, said in his annual report, made | public today. For the fiscal year end- |ed June 30 last there were 522,919 immigrants admitied into the United States, or 213,363 more than during the previous year, and only 81,450 aliens returned to Europe. During the preceding fifteen years an aver- age of 100 aliens have returned home each year for each 246 that were ad- mitted as immigrants. The commissioner general attrib- |uted the showing partly to better economic conditions in the United States and partly :to the "increased proportion of northwestern European peoples in present immigration.” The quota system of admitting im- migrants, which limits the number coming in each year to fixed per- centages of the population of each nationality which were resident in the United States in 1910, Mr. Hus- band sald, was probably the most ef- fective method of restricting {mmi- gration and presented the least ad- ministrative difficuity in operation.
