tionaI- Origins" Clause.
BY the Associated Press.

-Postponement of one year Of the
national origins provision of the

mended today by the committee on i'm
migration of the National Association
of Manufacturers.
The committee criticized the meas
ure introduced by the chairman of the
House committee on immigration
From 1923 to 1888 there is to be a 10
per cent reduction in quota each year.
after which the quota for each cOun-
try is to be reduced to l per cent of
the number of foreign-born individuals
of that nationality in the United
States.
The committee stated that such an
immigration policy might not prove
wise with our already strained rela-
tions with Latin American countries.
I'm the same way we would give Of
fense to Canada" said the report. 8
The greatest increases in American
industries have been in what hereto
fore have been regarded as luxuries,
George r.. Roberts of the National
City Bank of New York said.
John +. Edgerto, Lebanon, Tenn,
last night for the eighth consecutive
year, was elected president of the as
sociation. Henry Abbott, New York

INDUSTRIAL HEALTH
WORKERS PRAISED
Physician and Nurse Lauded
as Great Asset to Progress
of Labor.

The industrial physician and nurse
stay and together they are making a
substantial and everincreasing con-
tribution to the public health and to
social welfare. DR.. A. j. Lama. as
sistant medical director of the Metro
pOlitan Life Insurance Co, declared
today in addressing local business men
attending the Management week
observance at noon at the City Club.
DIR. LAMA, fourth speaker on the
Management week program, discussed
the value of health to the general ef-
ficiency of modem industry.
Progress in the betterment Of the
health and social condition of the
workmen has been steady throughout
the rast 100 years, he said. His gen.
eral and economic status also is con-
tinually improving, che speaker said.
Government Works Cited.
Governmental systems of inspec-
ton and control have Leen devised
to regulate the physical conditions
surrounding the industrial worker
DIR. LAMA pointed out. AN enor.
nous amount of research and investi-
CATION has been. accomplished deal
ing with Occupationdl diseases, the
causes of accidents. the safeguard ing
of health in factories and workshops.
special industrial health hazards and
the mortality from eccupational
diseases.
THE modern factory in the pro
visions it contains for healthful and
safe working conditions is one of the
most dramatic evidences that we have
of the progress of our civilization.
"We have by no means reached an
ideal stage, however, for there are
still too many unnecessary Occupa-
tional hazards; there still is a failure
to apply the ordinary rules of hygiene
to Industrial establishments, and the
housing of industrial workers is in
many instances disgraceful.
Employers Lend Aid.
"TheIe is, on the other hand. an
sense of responsiblitv
on the part of employers for the health
and wellbeing of their employees"
DR.. LAMA described the prevent
i've medical work that now is being
carried on in modern industrial estab-
lishments and urged further extension
of psychiatry as a means of eliminat-
ing misfit and maladjuSted persons in
industry, who. he said. cause an i'm.
mense amount of lost time, turnover,
disputes, loss of morale among the
force and even more seri-
ous disturbances.
William Gibbs NCAdoo, former Sec
retary of the Treasury, will be the
speaker at the luncheon gathering at
the City Club tomorrow.

HOPE IS SEEN HERE.
Schedules Regarded as Discriminatory
Threatened Tariff War.

Government officials We're hopeful
today that the threatened tariff war
with France had been definitely avert
ed by the French governments ac-
ton in suspending until, a treaty can
be negotiated the high rates recently
imposed on American goods entering
that country.
Regarded here as discriminatory,
these schedules called forth numerous
formal exchanges between Washing
ton and Paris, in the first of which
the United States referred to pro-
visions of the tariff law permitting i'm
position of retaliatory duties on i'm
ports from countries discriminating
against American products.
The French governments action in
suspending the levies, announced at
Paris last night, was seen here as pro-
viding basis for an amicable settle
ment of the controversy.

Physician Discovers Rare Parasite
Peril to Humans, Fish and Animals

covery as one of the most important of
the year.
DIR. McGath believes the tapeworm
was introduced into Minnesota by Fin
nish immigrants. Severe anemia
sometimes accompanies infestation in
humans. If fish in which the worm is
found are well cooked there is no
danger. Firms, however, are fond of
raw and nearly raw fish, DIR. McGath
pointed out, and thus fall easy victims.
Only zoo cases have been recorded,
although many others are believed to
have existed in North America, Dr.
McGath said.
