Scot, Thought Italian,
 May Soon Enter II. s.

Attorney Thomas F. McDonoush. acting for Nicenzo DaEliamente who was barred from admission into the country because of d ruling of the immigration rmreau at Montreal. Canada. has received notice from the office Of the assistant secretary of labor 10 whom he appealed the case. that the case has been re- opened and Dagliamente is asked to appear in person before the immi- grafton bureau at Montreal.
 Dagliamente claims that he was born in Scotland although his fam. fly moved to Italy shortly after his birth. He claims that he is q sub ject of Great Britain and therefore eligible to enter the United States from which he is barred as an Ital- ian. His father has been in this country for many years and is carrying on the light through the lo- cal attorney to establish his right to admittance. The entire case wlll probably be reviewed by the bureau in Montreal

because he gives hundreds of thou sands of dollars to endow an insti- tuition, or VIC may Do considered q virtuous person because we contrib ute to community chest,
 Very few men give to charity with m open hand and full heart. It is only when VIC give with a heart full of love for tho Creator and His creation that we are doing the Lords work, and, although re- compense may not come upon this earth, reward some day is coming from Him who alone can give hap pincsS and eternal reward.
 "In your solicitation you will meet all sorts Of people, all creeds, class es, races and denominations. You will meet those who will not give but who will complain. They will ask more questions and pass more criticism than thousands Of others who give from the heart.
 Community chests arc not Of re- cent origin. St. Paul organized lay societies so the poor would be helped and the needy cared for. The Red Cross is only an offspring of the work started by Florence Night ingalo and is carrying on the work Of the Sisters of Charity, who, in their sombre black, ministercd 10 the sick and established hospitals We should try 10 follow in their footsteps and help those who have q right to our assistance.
 "A national authority on com munity chests says that if they are not successes, there is only one other way that the poor and needy can be taken care Of, that is by taxation. If it is not done volun- tarily 1t will be done by compul- sion.
 If New Britain does not almost double its quota. then 1t is because the lesson of charity and brother ly love has not been properly un- dorStood and before another drive comes around. all citizens, regard less Of race. denomination or creed should be brought together and made 10 realize that even so little q thing as a cup of cold water given in the name of the Lord shall not go unrcwarded."
