For q period during the late wal
and for while after its close, Their
was put into operation by the CANADIAN
government legislation restricting ce1
tain classes and people of the countrie
which were not lined up with the allie,
nations from being admitted to Canada
This was quite necessary, and the rea
sons for it will be so apparent tina
they need not be given. However, tn,
time came, In the early summer of thi!
year, when it was deemed possible tt
remove some of these restrictions. Il
was found that there were many who
came under their ruling that were Of
a class that Canada needed and who
needed Canada. The restrictions
doubtless, were drastic, but were need
ful. The news of their removal, sent
broadcast, has met with such a re-
spouse as to give ample evidence that
they had not killed interest in Canada,
and that faith in the Dominion as q
country where new existence, happy
and fruitful, was as complete as ever.
AS has been stated by one writer deal
ing with this subject, "the opening of
the doors little wider has but dis
closed the dammed-up state of the
stream, which, given freer release, is
pouring in fuller force over the Do
miniOn."
AS to the moral effect Of the legisla-
ton that enabled these restrictions to
be carried out, it showed that while
Canada was seeking settlers, it's lands
and it's homes were not intended as
shelter for, those unable to meet the
standard set as Canada's laws of CIV
llization, the concessions which have
removed these restrictions still have
In view the maintenance Of this, stand
ard, and those who are still allowed
In are subject to the same require
ments that have prevailed for years.
AS pointed out by the writer previously
quoted, Canada has successfully i'm
pressed on those countries from which
she draws her people that her prime
and crying need is for those who will
60 on land, and of those entering the
country the bulk is composed Of agri-
culturists. Every country which has
formerly contributed to Canada's pop
ulation has resumed it's mission to its
shores.

had a farther-reaching effect than the
entry into the country Of many for

The restriction was rightly regarded
rs an indication of Canada's internal
economic condition, and many persons
md families of comfortable means con-
templating Canadian settlement were
discouraged from doing so. In the re-
moval is seen the first blush of the
dawn Of better days, and consequently
many Of those arriving are in a condi-
ion to establish rapidly and securely.
'Though Canadian immigration falls
broadly into the two classes, British
Ind American, many European peoples
lave contributed in a large measure to
he agricultural development of tho |
Western provinces, and it is gratifying
o note the same healthy interest in
Canada evinced by the most desirable
# these.
Amongst those from the European
are Serbians, Poles, Swiss,
2oumanians, Dutch, Jugo-Slavs,
french, Danish, Norwegians, Swedes,
Tinns and Lithuanians. All have con-
