BARRIERS AGAINST
IMMIGRATION
(By Associated Press. J

Budapest, Hungary, Aug. IL
Hungary, probably more than any
European nation, is going to have to
erect restrictive barriers against the
emigration OF its inhabitants to
America after the war, in the opin-
ion of DIR. Gustav Gratz, member of
parliament and director of the Hun
garian Manufacturers Association. i.
At the same time IL the United States
hopes entirely to escape from an in
undation Of so-called cheap labor, !"
1t must cooperate and itself put up
barriers which shall help to keep out
the thousands who, DIR. Gratz be-
lieves, will want and try to forsake
their native country and it's heavy
problems.
DIR. Gratz declares that he knows
from personal investigation that the
tendency to emigrate from agricul-
tural Hungary will be in strong con-
trast to the tendency in Industrial
Austria and Germany to stay at
home.
The cause for this tendency, of
course, he explains. is to be found
in the fact that the agricultural
worker is not going to be so fortu-
nateIy situated after the war as the
industrial man, especially as the
worker in Germany and a great part
of Austria who is probably going to
find plenty OF work at wages high
enough to ffset the present and pros
pective high prices.
Yet, he believes, there will be
some tendency on the part of the
