IMMIGRATION STEP BY HOOVER PRAISED Matthew Woll, in Radio Talk, Ex- presses Hope for Curb Action by Congress. Measures tiken by President Hoover to restrict immigration in the face of widespread unemployment in this coun- try were commended by Matthew Woll, president of America’s Wage Earners’ Protective Conference in a radio address delivered from station WRC in Wash- ington last night and broadcast over the network of the National Broadcast- ing Co. Mr. Woll expressed the hope that the President’s executive order, limiting entries to thoss who could definitely establish the fact they would not be- come a public charge, w-uld be affirmed by legislative enactment. Otherwise, he s3id, it ‘:eudlld gnly serve as a “tem- rary expedient.” p“’l‘he importance of such action is em- phasized by the facts, he said. “While it is true that since January there has been a temporary emigration greater than immigration, taking the statistics for the last nine months as a whole,” he said, “there is an increase of permanent immigration amounting to over 114,000, and, for the last six months since the issuance of the Executive order, there has been a net increase of alien popu- lation for permanent residence amount- ing t> over 47,000.” Mr. Woll attacked members of Con- gress who are seeking to lift some of the restrictions pl on Mmllg:luon. as voicing “the old appeal of selfish in- —_— terests.’ TIDAL BASIN IS URGED AS MEMORIAL TO TAFT Renaming to Taft Lake and Suit- able Statues Suggested in Capital Magazine.
