Husband, Assistant Sec- retary of Labor and former commis- sioner of immigration, brought forth interesting facts relative to the immi- gration situation today in an address delivered at the morning session. Practically No Immigration. “The most interesting thing concern- ing immigration today,” he said, “is that | there is practically none.” | ‘The decrease in immigration in the past few months, said the Assistant Becretary, had enabled the immigration officials to give more attention to those | fllegally residing in the country, and as | the immigration decreased, deportations had increased so that within the las: four months, those going out of the country exceeded the number coming in. Reports of presidents of federated or- ganizations were made at the morning session. Organizations included were | Abraham Lincoln Circle, No. 3, Ladies | of the G. A.

Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, & member of the council of the Community Center | Department, presented both measures. James R. Brown, president of the | Single Tax Club of New York, deliv- ered an address on the single tax law, stressing the unfairness of taxing im- provements on property rather than on the land itself. Mr. Brown declared that such methods were discouraging to the property owner who endeavored to | improve his property, while his neigh- | bor, who made no effort to improve his own land, and consequently paid no in- crease in taxes, profited by the im. provement of the land'next to him.

Strikes to prevent wage cuts if other means’ prove unsatisfactory have the approval of Willlam Green, president of the American Federation of Labor. This statement last night followed an appeal by the federation's executive council that organized and unorganized labor resist “to the fullest extent” any tendency toward less pay or a lower | ilving standard. The council said it had found a move among some bankers and employers to | reduce wages, and Green reiterated his belief that any action in that direction | would be a direct breach of an agree- ment, industrial leaders reached with “We feel labor would be fully justified in resisting attempts to reduce wages even to the extent of striking,” Green sald. The labor leader added that every effort would be made to co-operate in the President’s program to maintain the wage scale, but that no movements for higher pay, other than those al- vould be inaugurated. ready under w KIWANIS CLINIC CARES FOR 100 D.

The Central Committee appointed a sub-committee, Eliot Wadsworth of Bos- ton, George E. Scott of Chicago and Mrs. August Belmont of New York. “That sub-committee employed the engineers with the full co-operation of the chairman, who is working with the | engineers in trying to ascertain whether |1t is possible to do the work of the Red Cross with less personnel and generally with less expense, with the distinct un- derstanding that this is not in any way to restrict the activities of the Red Cross or interfere with its efficiency.” — — May 15, 1931 B Shoes for Men 5,000 suits. smaller-“mark b 11c “srew, 7. > 12%2¢ MEATS Potato Salad Souse Meat ......
