General Randolph, of B. & O.,
Points Out Effect of War.

CATION of trade and Industrial condi-
lions I'm Europe.
Already, General Randolph declared
today. the cessation OF immigration Is
tending to narrow the labor market In
this country and to bring about In
creases in costs of production. This
condition, he said, Will doubtless con-
tinue for period of from four to
seven years at least after the conclu-
sion of the war.
When the war Is over. Mr.. Randolph
said, millions OF Europe's workers will
have lost their lives, and those that re-
main will be needed to restore the de-
vastated countries. He said that he
even anticipates that the European
nations will find 1t necessary to pass
laws prohibiting emigration.
