ITALY EDUCATING
MEN TO EMIGRATE

Italy's commissioner general Of
emigration, Commentators Pasquale
di Fratta, announces a radical change
in the policy of the Italian govern
ment toward the half million emf
grants who, to get work, each year
cross the Alps, or go to Africa Or
North or South America.
At the opening of the normal de-
partment that is to train teachers for
the new Emigrant Schools, Common
datore di Fratta outlined the new poS-
icy. He said that officials and state
endowed societies had hitherto re-
garded the emigrant as incapable, but
that from now on they would devote
their efforts to removing the causes
of his weakness.
I'VE shall try to transform the
man." said the commissioner. The
emigrant who is now regarded as a
minor and an incapable must come to
mans full estate. He must become
capable. Hard and sinewy arms he
has. Character must be added, moral
force and knowledge of himself.
These new so-called Schools for
Emigrants of ours are at least unfor-
tunate in their name, which takes it
for granted that an Italian ought to
learn the trade of becoming an emf
grant. And they are apt to make
people forget, or minimize, our great
est problem, our racial problem, that
of the popular school.
"But no ordinary schooling is
enough for the emigrant He needs
training that will give him practical
judgment for the opportunities OF his
new life, and he needs some knowl
edge of conditions in the country &c
which he goes, for he always tends
to disturb the balance of demand and

supply of manual labor Emigration
on this account is always met with
distrust on the part of the native
born workman. And for that reason,
and for other reasons more complex,
the condition of our emigrants to for
eign countries is often exceedingly
difficult
"Emigrants ought not TO go to
those places where the labor supply
is already abundant They ought not
to accept unfair conditions of work
They ought not to accept wages lower
than the prevailing rate. They ought
to mingle in the lift of the country
that welcomes them, respect, obey its
laws. They ought to unite and Or

apart Above all, they ought to joir

DISORDER IN BELGIUM.

Conservative and generally quiet
old Belgium is experiencing the rest
less spirit Of these latter days. There
is at present as much anxiety In
Brussels as when the Corsican was
making his last stand and "There was
a sound of revelry at night" to dis
sipate fears.
The post-election riots have become
revolutionary in character. Following
fierce riots Monday night at Llege and
other places the socialist central COM
mittee declared that it would proclaim
a general strike today. A Client a
score of persons were wounded IN a
fight with gendarmes. Mobs attack
ed several converts, breaking the
windows of the buildings. The rioters
also smashed all the windows in the
stores on several streets.
The agitation is spreading through
out the country and $4,000 addition
al reservists will be called out.
At Liege enormous damage was
done by the rioters. The streets IN
the center of the city were piled high
with debris from broken tables, chairs,
beams, planks and stones, which were
the arms used by the mob in the at
tacks upon the police and gendarmes.
The tramways were wrecked. AT
the Place st. Lambert the rioters ov-
erturned street cars and used them as
barricades, from behind which they
hurled missiles at the police, inJurlng
several.
The most serious encounter occur
red in the vicinity of the Socialist
headquarters, known as "Populaire."
Firing revolvers in the air, the protes-
tants advanced slowly through the
streets to "Populaire' sacking stores
and cafes as they went. After they
had arrived at the headquarters sew
eral shots were fired from within the
place upon the mounted gendarmes IN
the street. The commandant, think
ing that the soldiers were about to be
overwhelmed, gave the order to tlre
at will, during which a number OF
persons were killed and 20 others were
wounded.

NEWSPAPERS IN VIRGINIA.

The advance bulletin of the thlr-
tccnth census giving statistics IN re-
gard to the manufactures of the State
of Virginia, furnishes some interest
ing data on the newspapers OF the
State, which should give the thought
full reader some food for reflection
According to the governments stat
istics the number of newspapers In
the state is nearly twenty Per cent
smaller than it was ten years ago.
In 1899 there were 81 daily news
papers in the State while in l9o9
there we're only 50. Since the figures
of 1909 were published there have
been several dailies discontinued and
one or two new ones started, which
makes the figures for today approx
matcly the same as in 1909.
The only encouraging fact in the
bulletin is that the circulation OF the
papers have shown large increase.
In 1899 the circulation of the 81 pa
pers was 92,S70; in 1904 it had grown
to 13l 900, while in 1909 th'
80 papers reached total OF ia, l4'

INFANrlLE PARALYSIS SPREADS


The increasing prevalence OF In
fantile paralysis in many parts OF the
world Is disquieting, and In England
some agitation has been caused by
Dr.. Recess theory that a recent cpl
demic in Devon and Cornwall was
caused by the dust raised by automo
biies. Dust has been more OF an H.
sue there than in this country. per-
haps because the country Is more
compact and the main roads more
densely occupied by motor vehicles
There have been many complaints OF
the depreciation Of property because
OF the incessant dust clouds raised OF
the endless procession of AUTOMOBILES
whirring past at high speed, and TINS
modern nuisance, combined with the
unprecedented epidemic OF infantlle
paralysis, has naturally led many TO
accept DR.. Recess view. In this coun'
try 1t has been received skeptically'
Dr.. Herman Biggs, general medical a.
rector Of the New York board Oh
health, observes that If DR.. Reece is
right there should be continuous ep
ldemic along motor routes, which Is
not the case. Yet Is this sound logic!
Dust clouds might spread the disease
when it existed, and yet not carry 1t
to a considerable distance.
