Gaitano Conte, young Italian mis-
sionary, arrived in New York from Bos-

week he will look into the subjeo t
of padronism. as revealed by THE

Mr.. Conte is member of the Boston
Association for Protecting Italian

bers among its members some of the
most prominent men in the Hub.

aptly describes matters just as The
Evening World" portrayed them:

residents. most OF whom are peasants from the
country districts Of Italy. they fan ready victims

psdrOnes and bankers are often in league with
each other, EK'orttonate rates Of transmission
have constantly been demanded. and In one year
several Italian bankers defSultcd to the extent
Of $50. 600
In addition IN charging eXorbitsat commissions
the padrones have sometimes dismissed lahofcrs
before the completion Of their work, In order to
replace them with new ones from whom further
commissions could be demanded, and have some
times refused payment for the last few days
labor. Moreover. the padrones have lodged the
Iaborers In miserable, crowded shauties and ha g
provided them with poor food for which SUN
much higher than the market rates has been
charged. This sum has often been deducted from
their wages whether they accepted the accommO-
dations and prov sons or not. The fact that the
laborers usually know only few words OF Eng
lsh has made 1t easy for the padrones to practise
gross deception. Mos. of the laborers are honest.
