Mr.. Caminetti described his trip
through Europe to obtain information
of the immigration problem and told
of the extensive preparations being
made by steamship lines, foreign gov
ernments and various organizations Tor
handling the expected flood OF immi-

Mr.. Caminetti said there was a gen.
eral impression among the peoples OK

through various organizations operat-
ing to assist immigrants on their way
to this country, was inviting aliens TO

He pointed out that while Amer
