IMMIGRATION
Station Here Prepared for Hand
ling of Farm and Factory Labor
For Distribution.

i A towering flag pole, with larg
| American flag floating to the breez'
at the top, now directs the strange
and local citizen to the United States
custom house and immigration sta
ton, in Pascagoula. After arriving
at the government quarters over the
postoffice on Krebs avenue the visit
or finds everything bright and new.
Nv. S. Matthews, Jr., deputy col.
lector in charge of the custom house,
and immigration Inspector Martin
Turnbull are now attending to their
work in offices that have been re-
modelled and fitted with new furni-
ture.
IMMIGRATION STATIONS WORK.
The immigration station here is
prepared for the handling of farm
and factory labor and domestics for
distribution from the New Orleans
immigration station to any point in
this state, upon application through
the Pascagoula and Gufport Offices.
Wherever farm laborer is want
ed all that is necessary is to request
blank forms and employers will be
furnished with the proper informa-
ton. Both the ports of Pascagoula
and Gulfport have made good show
ings in protecting the country from
undesirable aliens because of the
vigilance of their inspectors and
under the strict regulations it is
needless to say that the class of
foreigners arriving through the port
of New Orleans will make worthy
citizens.
During the past two years Immi-
grant Inspector Martin Turnbull has
been communicating with the prin-
cipal manufacturers and planters of
Mississippi inviting attention to the
future importance of New Orleans
as distributing point for skilled and
labor and the necessity of
developing the cut-over pine lands
with foreign immigration. Another
feature of the immigration service
which has given much credit to the
is the apprehension of
desertlng or runaway seaman un-
lawfully in the United States, thus
preventing the danger of admitting
a diseased person or perhaps an
archist, as in every instance the
sailor is subjected to both physical
and commercial examination before
he is allowed to remain. There is
every promise of wave of industrial
development for this section of the
gulf coast and the outlook for foreign
and seekers and settlers is promis-
ing. The coast is the land for the
pecan and Satsuma orange and is
being developed rapidly with flourish |
ng orchards.

PROTEST IS MADE
AGAINST CAR LINE

A vigorous protest against the pro-
posed routing of cars the length OF
Piedmont Avenue was lodged with
the Councilmen of the Eighth Ward
by residents of that section Satur-
Gay morning.
A committee made up Of ]. v.
Boehm, A. ]. Shropshire and NJ. B.
Eubanks, residing on Myrtle Street,
represented that the proposed plan
would be Objectionable and would
serve to depreciate property values in
the residential section in that the cars
would run through the negro district
going to and from the center of the
city.
Those opposed to the plan outlined
by the Street Railway Committee
assert that if the committee main
tains its present attitude and if it ap-
pears that Council will adopt its rec
concentrations. an indignation meet
ing of the patrons of the Piedmont
Avenue car line in the Eighth Ward
will be called for Monday night in
the Tenth Street School house to
frame more emphatic protest.
