Winning an Entrano :.


Last year this column recorded the
manner in which corJain young Rus
sian emigrant had won entrance to
the United States over a previous ad-
verse ruling on his case in which he
had been declared IAN alien. likely
to become public charge. He was
marvellous violinist but totally
blind. However when the commits
sioner OF immigration at Angel IS
land on the Pacific coast heard the
soft strains OF Tschaikowsky's 'Sere-
made" through the open windows of
the detention shed. he was so thrilled
by the melody that he ordered the
musician brought before him and as
all the employees of the department
gathered around in appreciation and
with applause for the pure artistry
demonstrated by the player, the COM
missioner decided that the young art
ist held in his hands the ability to
amply support himself and called a
board of inquiry to act on the case
and he was then admitted on the
privilege of an artist. Since that
time this violinist has been playing to
enthusiastic audiences over the coun-
try and tonight he will play in At
lanta 10 the Woman's Club audi
torium.

REGULATION OF FIREARMS

The national crime committee has drafted a
bill to be sent to the various state legislatures,
with the hope of securing uniform legislation
governing the sale Of firearms. 1t is far too
easy now for the crook element to get their
guns.
When a man becomes firmly fixed in life
of crime, he will no doubt be able to obtain
these weapons in some crooked way. But it
could be made more difficult for the young
fellows just starting in such ways to obtain
these weapons Men and boys of doubtful
character ought not to be allowed to have
them and in he lack of such weapons they
would often be deferred from some rash act
that would ruin their lives.

ASSESSORS CHANCE
 EFFECTIVE IN JUNE;
Saving in Salary Of Approzj-
 nlately S3,6O0 Expected

A saving Of approximately s. 600 in the salary item for the board Of assessors will be effected in June when the three assessors are placed on equal basis. each receiving S2o0 a year, new contract will be en- tered into with Appraisal Engineer Thomas Lindcr and he will become chairman of the board.
 The statutes require a tull-'ime chairman. Linder, although he will receive but s200 as chairman, may be given an increased amount ae appraisal engineer, probably s5,noo. and he will be the full-time man. Either Adolph Carlson or Frank Dcizek will be retired as part-time assessor since they. like Linder, are republicans, and not more than two members Of the board may be of any one political party.
 In addition 10 this staff the de- pertinent will have the services, when needed. of a map man and clerical assistant. David Ellison served in this capacity for several months last year.
 This scheme for operation of the assessing department was worked out by Mayor Weld and has the ap- proval of the financing departments of the city and the common coun- cjI
