STEPS TAKEN TO
LIMIT IMMIGRATION
Great Britain to Stop Rush of Able
Bodied Men Abroad by Passport
Regulations.

LONDON, Nov. 10. - The British
government yesterday took its first
definite steps toward preventing emf
grafton of able-bodied British subjects,
who in considerable numbers are sus-
pected of using this means of evading
military service.
A regulation was issued by the home
Office requiring subjects of the United
Kingdom 19 years old or more, and
contemplating emigration, to apply at
the foreign Office for passports. If the
passports are refused, they must hand
to the officers supervising the embarka-
tion the reply of the foreign Office to
their passport application, together
with their birth certificates, with pho
tographs attached.
Since the refusal of the Cunard com
pany to carry abroad British subjects
eligible for military service last Satur-
day the Anchor line and the White Star
line have adopted an identical course
Other lines are expected to follow witt
similar action.

remand the introduction of meat cards
also the establishment of a far-reach-
ing system of leaves of absence for
soldiers at the front in order to main
tain the efficiency of the industrial
trades and Of agriculture In addition,
the sharpest punitive measures against
food spectators were advocated in
Guiding the loss of civic honors and the
immediate introduction of graduated
taxes on war profits was demanded.
New milk cards viii be issued in
many Berlin boroughs on Nov. Is, and
there is official intimation that prepara-
