friends. The greatest rush IS Irom
Poland. The exodus of the Jews from
Poland amounts almost to stampede,
the immigration officials say. In one
room at Ellis Island the other day,
according to report sent down here
by the immigration officials at New
York, were 1900 Jewish women and
children.
Large numbers are also coming In
from Italy, Czecho- Slovakla and the
Balkan states. Not a great many Of
the arrivals are from the northern

All Say Bars Must Be Put Up.
During the last session congress
through the proper committees gave
the subject of immigration good deal
! of attention and numerous bills were
proposed, but the session came to an
end early In June without anything
having been done. The great rush
which is giving the officials so much
! concern started soon after congress
| adjourned. Public men do not agree
| as to the remedy that Is to be applied.
There is general agreement, however,
that more bars must be put up. When
! congress takes up the subject 1t will
undoubtedly be proposed that immi-
grafton be suspended entirely for a
limited period, but it seems doubtful
that this will be done. Organized la
Dor is now complaining that unless re-
strictive measures are speedily adopt
ed by congress the labor supply I'm the
United States will exceed the demand
to such an extent as to result in both
idleGess and lower wages.
The bureau of immigration now has
under advisement a suggestion that
something might be done toward
! checking the immigration stream by
holding up passports.
