Half Million from Italy Alone
Headed for America,
Ambassador Says.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-Approxi-
emigrate to the United States dur
ing the next three years, Baron Ro-
mano Avezzani, Italian Ambassador
to the United States, said today
Many others, he declared, are going
to South America and France, where
they are offered special inducements
to settle.
Reports from Danzig, Hamburg
and Bremen say a great tide of
Jewish emigration to the United
States has set in, and that already
it is flowing at the rate of thou
sands day through Antwerp and
toward French ports. 1t has been
necessary to erect barracks at Dan
zig to house the applicants for pass
ports and virtually a new city has
come into existence, composed OF
Jews organized and financed by the
Hebrew immigration Aid Society
and the Joint Distribution Commit
Zee of America.
Administration buildings, store
houses. workrooms, restaurants and
even a temporary synagogue have
been provided in the outskirts OF
Danzig for the emigrants. There are
many women and children awaiting
transportation. going they say, to
husbands and fathers in America.
Many of the men seeking pas
sage to America have fled from Po-
land, assisted by the Joint Distribu-
tion Committee and others from
Russia, having been driven before
! the Bolsheviki army as it advanced
| into Poland. The Poles made no
opposition to their passage through
the corridor to DanZig.

1t Will Assist Return to
Normal Conditions.

Representative Louis T. McFadden
of Pennsylvania, Chairman of the
House Banking and Currency Com
mittees, today defended his bill pro-
posing a tax on gold used in indus
try before the American Bankers
Association Convention, in session
here.
Speaking against the report OF a
special committee, which opposed the
bill as an attack on the basic as
ment of the nations gold standard
McFadden declared that new gold
production of which would be in
creased by the bonus, added to the
nations reserve would assist in the
deflation of currency and stimulate
healthy return to normal business
and financial conditions.
He asserted the average cost OF
raw material in the industries in
creased 112 per cent during the wal
while users of gold in arts and al
lied industries continued to obtain
the raw material at the pre-war
price fixed by the government.
He denied that the bill was aimed
as a blow at the gold standard.

japanese Term America
"The Enfant Terrible

TOXIC, Oct. 21-A belief prevails
IN Japan that the United States and
England may join hands in restrain
ing Japan in her Far Eastern policy
and is the basis of much comment
in the press.
Japan's brilliant writer, I.chro
Tokutomf, the editor of the military
organ, the Kokumin, wrote special
article on American English relations
IN which he called the United States
the "enfant terrible of the world.
Mr.. Tokumoti regards the prospect
of cooperation between England and
America with some anxiety. The
world will be obliged to agree with
what they agree. he observes, but
he consoles himself with the thought
that such cooperation is unlikely
owing to American suspicion of Eng
and and Jack of world knowledge.
After summing up his conclusions
IS to the position of England as ar
bitter of the world, Mr.. Tokutoml
says:
But there comes Englands COM
petitor, whom England at least in
her heart of hearts fears as for
nidable power. America may be
called an exposition of the world s
different races. But the mainstay of
the American people is the Anglo
Saxons. England and America are
brother nations with the Atlantic be-
tween them. The destiny of the
world is now entrusted to these
brother nations
"If they should cooperate in the
work of solving the problems of the
world, however unreasonable the re
suit of such solution may be, the
world will be obliged to agree, y
thinks Mr. Tokutomi But he asks
"Is America willing to act the role
Of younger brother and follow Eng
lands lead? Americans want to be
the first in everything. Will they be
nontent to take second place in the
solution of the worlds problems q
He doubts it, saying: "To think that
America will follow the lead OF
England as a younger brother duti
fully obeying orders in the solution
Of the worlds problems and will be
he unique supporter of England, is
he observation of a blind man"
Mr.. Tokutomi describes the An
arican in this way: "In a word the
American is rustic person who
does not know anything about the
world. He enjoys globe trotting and
Europe is his pleasure ground where
he dumps his money. But on al
occasions he carries his own country
N his travelling bag. Consequent,
aside from satisfying his own de
Sires for pleasure he does not en-
tighten himself very much by hi:
observations of the world"
In short. Mr. Tokutomi observes
the war has Americanized the worlt
rather than influenced America Mr.
Wilson's advocacy of the democrati
zation Of the world was in his opin
ion an illustration of how the Am
erican tries TO measure the worl'
with the rule he applies to his owl
country The American consider
that it Is his mission to force Am
| ericanism upon all other nations.
