HEBREWS SEE TIE PRESIDENT.
They Protest Against Education Test
Clause in Immigration Bill.

WASHINGTON, june 1e.-A delegation of
Hebrews from New York saw the Presi-
dent, immigration Commissioner Sargent,
Speaker Cannon and others to-day to pro-
test against certain features Of the immigra-
ton bill now pending in the House. Their
chief objection to the measure is the edu-
c~ational test, which it is alleged would
operate to exclude a desirable class OF
Russian and Polish Jews and interfere with
the movement for their colonization in the
Southern States, where they are now migrat-
ing for purposes Of settlement. They want
a clause inserted in the bill which win allow
this class Of immigrants who intend to settle
in the Southern States the same exemptions
allowed to immigrants for the Philippines
and other colonial possessions Of the United
States.
In the delegation were David Robinson.
representing the Southern immigration
Commission; Joseph Barondess, represent
ing the Federation Of Jewish Organization
in New York State and the Jewish trade
unions, and Mark j. Katz, representing the
Liberal Immigration League Of the United
States. They were introduced to Speaker
Cannon by Representative Bennett OF New
York, who ia one Of those who are opposing
the immigration measure.

P4DRONES STILL FLOURISH.
License Commissioner Bogart Tells OF
italian Crueities 10 Italians.

In his annual report to the Mayor, John
n. Bogart, COMMISSIONS of Licenses, de-
scribes the cruel treatment Italian immi-
grants are subjected to who are sent to
the South and West by New York padrones.
Mr.. Bogart informs the Mayor that he has
had difficulty in enforcing the license laws
in regard to ~padrones or contract labor
employment agencies, and this difficulty
was increased by the fact that these agents
have 20 long been allowed to operate with
out restriction of any kind that they have
come to look upon the efforts of the depart
nient to regulate them as an u~nwarranted
interference. MIR. Bogart says:
Care is usually taken when the laborer
Ia cent quite a distance out Of he city to
work., perhaps in some malarial swamp or
disease ridden locality, that he never OBJ.
tains enough money to pay his t~ransporta-
ton back again until the job Is completed.
he ia sent to work is concealed from him lest
he balk at being sent too great a distance
from his friends. In recent cases brought
to the attention Of the Commissioner Of
Licenses 1t was shown that hundreds Of
Italian immigrants who believed they were
going to Philadelphia or Pittsburg were
really landed in the swamps of Florida and
the wilds Of North Carolina, where they
were kept on railroad construction work
under the surveillance Of armed guards
until they became too sick to be Of value,
when they were turned loose to Ike their
way back to New York as best they could.
"It is very difficult for the Commissioner
to remedy this evil, except by widespread
publicity of the facts as q warning to
laborers. 1t is hard to prove legally that
the. New York employment agencies give
false information to applicants as to the
character and conditions surrounding the
work at the point Of destination, and the
stories Of i'll treatment by the employing
companies are fatty denied by them and
their agents.
that the cadet system on the East Side as
it was carried on in a certain class OF en-
ployment agencies freouented by immi-
grant girls has been practically suppressed.
