Managing Director Behar of the National
Liberal Immigration League, who made
o trip to Europe and back In the steerage,
made public yesterday a number of recon-

that there was still for Improvement.
His trip was prompted by statements
made In the House of Representatives last
session as to the way In which immigrants
were treated. The Congressional Record
quotes one Congressman as saying that
there were .murderous conditions In tho
Storage, and others spoke Of criminal
tortures' and shameful. inhuman and
brutal treatment
Il crossed one way on one Of the old
type vessels and came back on one Of the
new type vessels" said Mr.. Behar. "and
inspected others. and there were no tor
