MELLON @. KS CHANGE
IN IMMIGRATION LAW

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE propo.
sal to modify immigration restric-
tions in order to provide the country
with a greater labor supply has the
approval of Secretary Mellon, it was
said today at the treasury, although
the secretary believes some means of
selection should be devised SO that
more laborers might enter the coun.
try without corresponding increase
of other classes Of immigrants.
Rising tides of prosperity in the
country according to Melons view
has caused a labor shortage which
could be met by such modification in
the law. The labor shortage is held
by him to be on a large measure re
sponsible for high prices.
