Restricted immigration Is
Blamed for Labor Short
age in Big Shops
ORDERS
ARE HELD BACK

WASHINGTON. d. C., Jan. A.
A shortage OF $1,000 shopworkers
in tho tailoring industry in this
country because OF restricted immi-
grafton was said to exist by Wilbur
w. Stewart, Of Philadelphia, presi-
dent of the National Association Of
Merchant Tailors, before the House
immigration Committee. The COM
mittee has begun it's work OF de-
termining what the real labor need
in industry is.
It was declared that thirteen
days is the average time required to
hll orders because of labor short
age. The immigration Committee
was asked to amend the 3 per cent
quota act TO admit to this country
whatever classes OF workmen might
be needed by American industries.
with Mr.. Stewart were 70. Twyef-
fort. Harvey A. Patterson and
Charles A. WetEel, all OF New York
city. and all former presidents Of
the association. They declared
their figures were taken from ques-
which had been sent TO
tailors throughout the
country indicating shortage OF "a
per cent. attributable to immigra-
ton restrictions and the failure Of
American boys TO learn tailoring.
The association members urged
appointment OF an immigration
to determine which in
dustrlts in America needed crafts
men and a law to provide that
American consuls in Europe issue
TO such workmen.
John r. Edgerton. president of
the National Association OF Manu-
facturers. will appear before the

FER irreparable injury unless the

EINSTEIN IDEA
ANSWERED SOON
Lick Observatory Soon to
Report on Photographs of
Sun Eclipse
DEVELOPING
NOW IN PROGRESS

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 4.-Dowu
in the basement under the dome OF
Lick Observatory, near here. as
tronomers recently opened a box OF
huge Photographic plates. taken al
n far away Australian outpost dur
ing the September eclipse OF the sun,
and started developing them to
prove or disprove DR.. Albert Elm
STEMS theory or relatively.
DR.. Einstein thinks the pictures
Will show the correctness of his
theory by confirming that the sun
attracts or bends the light of near
by planets. DR.. W. w. Campbell.
director of the observatory and head
of the w. II. Croker expedition,
which took the pictures, will make
no statement until the plates are
developed and infinitely delicate
measurements and comparisons are
made. Several weeks will be re-
quired for this work.
Forty-elght photographs OF the
skies were taken by the expedition.
Eight were in connection with the
Einstein theory and the others were
OF the stars and spectrum and cor
ona OF the sun.
Four 'Einstein cameras" were de-
signed and constructed especially
for use at the time OF the eclipse.
They required plates II inches
square and a quarter of an inch
thick These were OF plate glass and
weighed pounds each. The suns
corona was photographed with a
camera 40 feet in focal length on
plates IA by II inches.
The plates recently arrived here
from the south Pacific with eighty
four packages OF scientific instru-
ments used by the party. The ship
ment was sent TO the observatory
on Mount Hamilton in bond by truck
and the packages were opened with
a government customs inspector
present. The package OF plates,
carefully packed, weighed 500
pounds. During their journey across
the Pacific great care was taken so
the plates would arrive intact
The Croker expedition was for
tunate in that the eclipse day was
clear. A German expedition to Thurs
iay Island. headed by DIR. Einstein,
reported failure because fog hid the
sun when the eclipse occurred. DR..
Einstein was quoted at Kobe, on
his way home, to the effect that he
thought the Campbell plates would
prove his theory correct.
