U4NT TO EMIGR4TE
TO UNITED STATES
But Great Numbers of Laborers in Eng
land and France Are Unable to
Save Enough Money.

Washington, d, c., March 2S.-'ireat
numbers of the laboring classes OF both
England and France want to cmigrate
to the United States but are finding it
impossible to do so through inability to
save enough money and also because OF
the adverse monetary exchange. This
condition was reported TO he secretary
of labor to-day by Rowland B. Marany,
who was sent to Europe by the Wilson
administration to attend the sessions
of tho international commission on
immigration and emigration and whose
resignation was accepted last week by
President Harding.
Low wages arc preventing many Eng
lishmen from coming to this country,
while in France the present rate of eX-
change on the franc is an almost insur'
mountable barrier to immigration.
There was said to be a noticeable note
of expectancy in England for better
times but rather a lack Of optimism
among the poorer classes Of France. In
both countries. however the labOring
classes we're said TO be getting plenty
of wholesome food.

SESSION THIS WEEK
But There are Still Some Important
Matters to Be Taken Up
by Legislature.

An effort will be made to clean up
the legislative work at Montpelier this
week 80 that final adjournment may
take place Saturday morning. Some
of the senators are very optimistic
about the matter and think they may
be able to go home Thursday. There
are still some heavy matters to be
considered. There are 10 bills in the
House committees and 10 on the calen-
dar. while there are 20 bills in similar
positions in the Senate There are IA
Senate bills in the governors hands for
signature, and large number OF House
bills.
Two OF these bills in the hands Of
Governor Hartness which are worrying
the members of the legislature to some
extent are the Sunday law bill from
the Senate and the House bill calling
for S2OO,0 900 appropriation annually for
eradication of bovine tuberculosis. The
time on these bills expires tonight
and they will become law unless Hart
ness afiixes veto to them. The fact
that Secretary j. A. Wilcox IS III com
plicates the situation to some extent.

IMPORTANT MEETING
FOR VERMONT SHIPPERS
Matter of Increased Freight Rates Will
Be Taken Up at Hearing IN
State House Tuesday
Afternoon.

shippers in Vermont will take place

pelier, Harry H. Carr Of St. Johnsbury,
J. F. Dewey of Quechee and R. G. Edison
OF Proctor, appointed recently by GOV.
Hartness relative to the railroad condl :
tiors, will listen to any ideas that the
shippers of the state may want to ad-
vance in opposition to the 10 per cent
increase in freight rates.
Thus far the Vermont shippers have
taken little interest in the matter but
when the committee goes to Boston
Wednesday to meet the committees
from the other New England states
it will need all the information that
the shippers can give it on this mat
ter 30 that it is expected that many of
the large shippers of the state wiz
attend the meeting Tuesday afternoon.
The Central Vermont and Rutland
railroads were not represented at the
conference recently held in Boston so
that delegations from these companies
