ASK CHANGES IN
IMMIGRATION


The restrictive immigration law is
scheduled to face barrage Of
from large congress
sional group as soon as Congress
gets back TO work.
The controversy is e, ected to
revolve chiefly around the so-called
national origins" provision which
President Coolidge Is directed to
proclaim by April /. and around the
charges that the 1924 law inhumane-
~ separates families OF Immigrants.
The greatest obstacle faced by
those demanding changes, it is adj
n1itted. is the expressed fear Of the
immigration bloc. that a whiting
down" process will ensue which will
threaten the entire policy OF selec-
tive and restricted immigration.
President Coolidge. according to
information reaching Congress, has
been advised that 1t is mandatory
upon him to proclaim the national
origins provision. .s
This scheme would increase the
quotas OF some nations and decrease
those of others An estimate sub.
n1itted to the Senate by Senator
Reed (F.l of Pennsylvania, showed
that the combined quotas OF Nor
way and Sweden would be cut from
1904 to 6,14O annually. that Of
Great Britain and Ireland wouid be
raised from 62,45S TO S1,111 and
HerTnany's would be cut from 50s129
to 22.O1S.

tion policy will try to push through

Protective Association May
Result From Carey and
FriSch Troubles.
By Henry L. Farrell,

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Talk
among the major league baseball
players about some kind of protec-
tive organization or union probably
will be revived this winter because
of the recent experience of Max
Carey and Frank F'risch.
Carey, rated as one of the most
valuable players in the game asst
season. lost his job with the Pitts
hurgh Pirates and was released away
from a cut of the worlds series
money with a transfer to the Brook.
Ign Club.
F'risch, in open rebellion against
the managerial tactics Of John Nc
Graw, was back at his home here to-
day debating what move he could
make next He left the Giants in
st. Louis without warning and prob.
ably will lost pay and his job.
The former captain Of the Giants
said today that he wasn't certain
what he could do and that he was
going to stay around home for a
while. He said he was in bad physi.
cal shape and needed a rest.
| In the opinion of ball players and
! fans. who are familiar with the con-
tracts that players have to sign,
there is nothing that Frisch can do.
He made the first move and he will
have to make the next and it's tough
moving any way against McGraw.
Frisch refused to give any reasons
for jumping the club in St. Louis,
but It was learned from other
sources that McGraw has been rid
ing him so hard he couldn't stand
it any longer, and took a way out
that he figured might force Nc
Graw to trade or sell him to some
other club.
1t has been no secret that the
Giant manager has been riding the
players all season and especially so
since it became almost obvious that
the team cannot win the pennant
this year.
McGraw was reported TO have said
that he gave Frisch permission to
negotiate with the Brooklyn club
last spring or with any other club
that would be willing to assume a
contract that Is said to call for $751;
900 a year. Frisch denied that he
had talked with Brooklyn.

Miss Ryan and Mrs. Mallory
Meet for National Ten
mis- Championship.
RM Tnited PreSa

BU United Press 10
FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Aug. %,
Miss Elizabeth Ryan. for years a
tennis player without country and
one of the greatest titleless players
i'm the world, got her first real chance
for national glory at the West Side
Tennis Club this afternoon when she
met Mrs. Molla Mallory in the final
round for the women's tennis cham
pionship.
Miss Ryan for ten years, In Eng
land and France, had to obscure her.
self behind the glamour of Mile. Su-
zanne Lenglen and be content with
a share of the French girls game In
doubles competition.
She could beat any other player In
Europe and most Of the players in
this country, but she couldn't beat
Mile. Lenglen and she had to play
the French star in all the important
tournaments.
Two years ago Miss Ryan returned
tol the United States and found her.
self without a tennis nationality. The
American teams wouldn't play her
as an American against the British
teams and the English teams ruled
that she was not English.
This year she was accepted by the
United States Lawn Tennis Associ-
alton, however, and was sent to Eng
land with the Wightman cup team.
She played brilliantly on the other
side and defeated Miss Helen Wills,
former national champion, in the
first important tournament In this
country.
Glory holds little for Mrs. Mallory.
She has been the American cham
pion six times and has been a final
list nine times. Her return to form
this season. with the possibility OF
another title, has been one of the
most interesting features of the sea-
son.
