Drastic Cut inJewish immigration
10 United States in 1925
Arrivals Permitted To Enter Only One Fifth of Previous Year.
Je,os Entering Come Chiefly From Western Europe.

Warrington, ID. C.--lmmigration of
Jews to the United States during 1925
diminished to one-iifth Of that of the
previous year. according TO statistics
of the Bureau of Immigration Of the
United States Department of Labor
made known here.
According to the statistics of the
Labor Department, in the fiscal year
1924, 1889 Hebrews immigrated. For
the fiscal year 1925 ending June 80,
lO,292 immigrants and 2,9i5 non-im-
migrant Hebrews entered, making n
total Of l3,237. During the year 1924
260 Hebrews emigrated from the
United States and during the fiscal
year 1925, 291 emigrated and $40 non
immigrants left the country. This
makes the total increase in the Jewish
population of the United States l2, 100
for the fiscal year 1925.
An examination of the figures of
the Bureau Of Immigration shows that
the Jewish immigration has adjusted
itself to the new quota law. The num-
ber Of Jews who entered this country,
originating in Eastern Europe, has
shrunk to a very low figure and the
majority of Jews who entered came,
most probably, from Western Europe.
According to the figures, 1857 immi-
grants were born in Poland. OF these
3,l7s are Poles. This makes the maxi
mum of Jews who entered from Poland
679. Of the 2,O43 immigrants entering
this country from Russia, 1,225 are
Russian by race. The greatest poss-
BILE number of Jews from Russia would
therefore be S1S. During the fiscal
year 1925, 1,137 Hebrews were de
barred as compared with 1854 in
1924.
The figures also show that Jews oc-
cupied the eighth place in the num-
ber entering and the number de
barred.

In revolutionary justice" and tries tt

Soviet authorities will In future take
proper steps in the protection OF the
Jewish minorities.
A picture typical OF the situation was
given recently In an appeal signed by
thirty inhabitants OF the village OF
Piatigorye. District Of BieIotzerkolf
under the caption, Put an End to
Lawlessness." Before the revolution
the town had 25O Jewish families living
In 40 houses; after the revolution and
the pogrom period. the population was
reduced to 81 families Of artisans, 8 Of
union members, 10 Of traders Of the
second class. 81 OF traders Of the first
class and Il families Of men Of un.
determined occupation. With the excep.
tion of a small minority all OF the Jew
ish families barely live on the support
they receive from their relatives In
America. The bitter economic situa.
tlon Is due, the appeal says, to the
anti-Semitic elements which have In.
vaded the Soviet administration.
Even the campaign for a cooperative
system was conducted under the slogan
Of nti-Semitic agitation. At one Of the
meetings where the cooperative idea
was advocated, Zhuravlyoff, a Soviet
administration leader, stated that the
only dangerous element for the govern.
ment was the Jews.
The declassed traders and merchants
attempted to organize an agricultural
collective, but this was prevented by
'i.e Communist authorities by their re-
fusal to grant them land. Jewish work

Jewish population suffered most Of
all from the plague Of the tax collec.
tors. The tax is usually assessed by
citizens committee under the super
vision Of n government commission.
The taxes. however, are assessed In
such manner that the commission
confirms the decision Of the citizens
committee. The Jewish members Of the
citizens committee, representatives Of
the traders and artisans, are afraid to
express their opinion. The small town
.-aders are taxed three or four times
as much as in the district towns, Be-
ing unable to pay such exhorbltant
taxes they are classed as poor taxpay-
ers, are brought to court and are being

an appeal that special commission
be sent to investigate this situation.

How | ectrolytic
Charger Works

The electrolytic type of charger
makes use of the fact that when
certain parts Of dissimilar metals
are immersed in electrolyte they
allow current to flow in one direc-
ton only. Common examples use a
lead and an aluminium rod i'm
mersed in a solution OF borax and
water for charging storage b bat
teries.
Aluminium disintegrates when an
attempt is made 10 pass sufficient
current through TO permit recharg-
ing a storage battery. A battery
charger OF the electrolytic type
can be made by using metals which
do not disintegrate. These are i'm
mersed in an acid electrolyte
which permits a much greater
amount of current TO be passed
than is possible with alkaline solu.
lions of borax or baking soda and
water.
The metal, unlike aluminium. is
not attacked by the acid solution
and does not waste away. BY the

Vacuum in Tube
Is Necessary

The vacuum tube is SO named
because the grid. plate and filament
are enclosed in a glass chamber
from which the air has been
pumped. 1t is necessary to burn
the filament in a u to pre-.
vent its destruction. which follows
when a leak occurs in the glass.
Another reason for the vacuum is
in the operation of the tube as an
oscillator and amplifier, which does
not work well in these capacities
unless the air is pumped out. When
the tube is designed especially for
a detector, like the 200 type. it con-
tains some gas which assists the
d~etector action.
In the manufacture OF tubes for
amplifiers 1t is necessary to include
a chemical which absorbs the gases
that remain or develop in the tube.

An aerial has capacity. induct-
ance and resistance. The capacity
Is formed by the condenser effect
existing between the aerial wire as
n plate. and the ground as an
other plate OF a condenser. This
inductance of the aerial is formed
by It's length and shape, and ths

bare copper wire is generally most
suitable for the aerial. and one

Set Works Best With
Balanced Coupling

Close coupling between the pri-
mary and secondary coils makes
broad tuning. The secondary takes
power from the primary, and this
creates a condition in the primary
that is equivalent to placing resis-
lance in 1t. When the two coils
are brought closer together a
greater amount of power is not re-
ceived by the secondary because
the added resistance in the primary
circuit, through mutual induction.
reduces the current rapidly. The
maximum power is obtained in the
secondary circuit when It takes
half Of the power from the primary,
or when the increase in resistance
of the primary. due to coupling, is
equal TO the resistance OF the pri-
mary by itself.
