ITALIANS STUDY
ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Hope to be Able to surmount
Literacy Test in Immi-
grafton Law.

ROME, Feb. 16-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press) The lit
erary test clause of the United States
immigration laws, which is to take
effect May 1, has already resulted in
the stimulation of the study Of Eng.
fish among Italians who expect to EN-.
igrate to America when the war is
over.
In the belief of the Italian Com.
missoper of Emigration there will be
more than enough work to be done in
Europe, and at good wages when the
war is over, and the governments
are expected to do all possible to dis
courage emigration. However, in.
quireis already being made at the
American consulates indicate that a
large number of soldiers are consid-
ering the possibility of going to
America when released form service.
Reports that the United States has
become Immensely wealthy because Of
her war sales are prevalent here, and
relatives fmany Italians have writ
ten home from America telling Of
opportunities that are more certain
there and urging them to come when
the war is over without waiting to
discover whether Europe is or not
going to recover from the setback
given by the war. One of the com.
monest remarks which Americans in
Italy hear from store clerks, from
soldiers, or from BARRIERS, is that they
think of going to America when the
war is over.
An interesting phase of immigrat.
ion possibilities is the belief express.
ed in some quarters that many of the
hitherto well.todo Italians of the edu-
Gated classes who have suffered by
the war may go to America to recoup
their fortunes.
While Italy furnished the largest
number of emigrants to the United
States before the war Of any single
nation, for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1914, the number being 2S3,
1888, as compared to 27S,152 from Aus.
tria.Hungary, the Italian government
favors rather than objects to the new
literacy test.
