Police parking permits now held by merchants would be revoked if the new plan is adopted, Harland pointed out. The centralized parking areas will vary from 50 to 200 feet in length and will be located in virtually every block in the business section should Har- land’s plan meet with the approval of the District Commissioners. The new plan was hit upon as the result of a request made by the Mer- chants and Manufacturers’ Association, which recently petitioned the Commis- sloners to take steps to assure business firms parking space for the handling of their merchandise without interfer- ence from motorists. midnight and 250 more are expected before the initial meeting opens at 10 o'clock this morning in the Na- tional Press Club Auditorium as called by the National Council for the Pro- tection of the Foreign Born. Fear Fish Report Adoption. ‘The new arrivals assembled last night in the hall of the Communist organiza. tion here at 1337 Seventh street, where they were assigned to hotels and given information regarding the first meeting. Lieut. J. W. Plerson and Sergt. J. L. Norris of the second precinct were present at the hall for several hours in the capacity of observers, leaving 10 o'clock after they had been ap- praised of the nature of the assembly. Spokesmen for the delegates said it was feared that Congress would adopt the report of the Fish Committee which is investigating “Red” activities in this country. They assumed that the con- tents of the report were in a measure forecast by Representative Fish of New York, chairman of the committee, in ALIENS MEET HERE T0 PROTEST LAWS Discrimination Is Charged; Adoption of Fish Report by Congress Opposed. Delegates who claim to represent interests of the entire group of foreign- born workers in the United States were arriving in Washington last night to formulate a protest on the eve of the final Congress session against what they describe as _discriminatory legislation, especially with regard to the Aswell bili to require registration of aliens. Almost 150 delegates had arrived by speeches which, the delegates sald, were | prejudicial to interests of the foreign- born porulatioh. A stenographic copy of Mr. Fish's address last night was made for the purpose of discussing its purport before the conference. Immigration Policy Planned. Adoption of the Fish report, dele- gates said, might mean passage of bills opposed to the foreign born group. The convention will be opened by Hugo Gellert, a New York artist of Hungarian birth, who will address the meeting. A chairman will be elected later. ‘The delegates represent trade unions t|in various parts of the country with a combined membership of 300,000 work- ers. Some of the organizations are radical, others are allied with more con- servative labor groups, but all bave large enrollments of foreign-born work- ers. In addition to protesting bills aimed at allen registration, the convention will attempt to formulate a policy on immigration. There is a predominant opinion, spokesmen said, that any tightening of the present immigration law will work hardship on the foreign born already in the United States A3 h exclusion of* members of thefr fate families. b fiveo- Many Delegates Expected.’ It was sald that the present move- ment of foreigners to the United States is made up almost wholly of this class of immigrants and does net assert any appreciable effect on unémployment.
