‘Australia Wants Anglo-Sax- on Immigrants and Has Room for Them. By Roger Batchelder. Phe problem of Australia is the lack of Anglo-Saxon citizens, accérding to Percy Hunter, Director of Migration and Settlement of Australia, who is at the Astor, en route from London to Sydney. Mr. Hunter has played an important part in the agreement with England whereby the mother coun- try will help send 10,000,000 emigrants from its overpopulated districts. “We have more area than the United States, and only 5,000,000 people,” Mr, Hunter explained. “Our people are 97 per cent. British; no country 1s so racially pure. But if ‘we are to hold the continent; we must have at least 10,000,000 more inhabt- tants, It is capable of sustaining as many as the United States. “Our problem now 1s chiefly one of finance. We plan to give one-third of the passage money and lend a con- siderable part of the balance to im- migrants from Britain and its provinces. Americans will welcomed as soon as ex the empire have been “Dhis is one of the g of modern civ4ization, mean anything to the British Empire in years to come. In the next cen- tury, becaise of our vast territory and great opportunities, the British capital might be Sydney.” ON HE WENT BACK HOME. “A contractor friend of mine at home told me an interesting story re- eently,”’ related Charles C. Powers at the Vanderbilt “An Italian laborer who camo here only twelve years ago, and had meanwhil saved every penny that he could, went back to Italy last month with about $12,000 in cash. Before leaving he ed an official of his company for z » had rec 1 in the twelve years, and explained that, with the present value of the lira, he would be able to live without working for the rest of his life, and !n compara- tive luxury." Cie) ag LONDON’S WHITE MONKEY. “Trough albino freaks in almost every class also be st- ideas it might from Chicago. known the animals, London Zoo was recently delighted by the receipt of a very rare albino monkey,’ according to Woodbury C. Donaldson, a St. Louis guest of the Commodore, who has arrived from a European trip. ‘The London newspapers made much of the new arrival,” he went on, “and reported that the animal, which came from /w remote Pritish province, has no color in its fur, and that its skin was pink because of the absence of pigment.’’ ee DON’T KNOW HOW TO ACT. The fact that South American youths, who are coming to this coun- try in increasing numbers, soon ab- sorb the customs of America {s caus- ing quite a problem in their countries, where social restrictions are tradi- tional, according to Frank W. Loomis, an American oil man of Rio de Jan- eiro, at the Pennsylvania. “The youths who come to the United States are surprised to find that their native’ conventions do not|- obtain,’ he remarked. ‘They are re- ceived by the best families, and allowed to take the daughters out in the evening without chaperones After several years of college, they become ifsed to this custom, and when they return home at the con- clusion of their course they find it hard to realize that if they want to ke a young ladygto the opera, or even for a stroll in tha park on a Sunday afternoon, they must be ac- companied by an efficient chaperone.’ NOTHING THE MATTER WITH KANSAS. Much has been said of the recent official conflict between William Allen White of “raise more corn and less hell” fame and the Governor of the State, but it 1s not regarded very seriously in Kansas, according to Franklin E. Smith of Topeka, at the Belmont “Many people think that White was rong, in defying the law," he said, nut most of them are inclined to regard the affair as trivial, taking into account Mr. White's sincerity in emanding free speech. There is much more excitement about the in- ident in the East than at home, and things wWl soon come out all right Don't worry about Kansas.”* Farthest From Home.
