MUSSOLlNI CHECKS EMIGRATION TIDE
Exodus to South America Being
 Damned at Source

Rome, Italy, April 13 Rp-The great river of Italian emigration.
 which poured a flood O. new citizens into the United States, South Amer ica and southern France in the last two generations, is gradually being
 damned at its source by the Mus solini government.
 Examination of figures just pnb- lished shows that not only is the
 number of emigrants from Italy
 to other countries steadily dimin- ishing. but also that the number of
 emigrants who are returning to the fatherland to resume citizenship is increasing.
 This effect springs from two
 causes. both having their origin in the premier. Mussoini strongly dis courages emigration. partly by mor- al suasion and even more so by legal
 measures which forbid Italians to leave the country without govern mental permission. Then through propaganda, he tells Italians abroad that under changed conditions in their homeland they can live better and more happily than when they left it.
 In 1913, the year before the World War. Italian emigration had reach- ed the amazing figure of S12,59S in one year, or almost two per cent of the total population. Thus the
 population of great city equal to that of Naples removed itself bodily | in one year from one country and
 scattered itself among a number Of others.
 After the war this outpourins went on again. In 1920 some 41G.- 900 Italians sought homes in other lands. The first years of Fascism, when 1t was uncertain what the fu- ture of the new regime would be. the figure remained hieh-S91 900 in 1923. But from then on there followed q constant reduction-292,- GOO for 1925: o10, 600 for 1926: and
 23S,e for 1927. This last year. Ii is believed, the number fell below 900. o.000-althoush official figures 1dNt HOt yet dpped edTeI--dnu EfeI. part of this number is made up of persons who have emierated for only short time and must return to Italy.
 At the same time the number of
 "repatriates' has become imposing ly large. In 1920 this number was S0.00V. In 1925 it was 211 900, i'll 1926, 19S,o00 and in 1927, 111,00a
 The difference between the fig ures of the emigrants and the re- patriates is what counts. The emi- grants arc still larger in mum bcr
 than the repatriates. but this df- ference is yearly growing smaller. In 1925 it was S1.Go0; in 1926, 72,- coo: ill 1927, 67,000.
 Thus Mussolini is building up the population Of his elongated country. By rigidly prohibiting birth control. ! by rcwarding parents Of large fam- lies. by his own eXamplc-hc has ! four children himself-by discouI-
 aging emigration and cncoura ging reentry into Italy, he is forcing
 ltaly's population up by leaps and bounds.

BERLIN RISES UP
 AGAINST CENS0RS
Demands Chance to See Banned
 Communist Motion Picture

Berlin, April IS. R-In Repub- lican Germany the right of freedom of expression is as stoutly defended todays as it eve. was in Puritan America. and Berliners of all classes and all political complexions have engaged in a battle against censor ship now being waged.
 The threat of renewal Of Ger man state censorship, seen by many in the recent police closing of the Communist moving picture 'Polsoa Gas over Berlin" led to a storm of protest that forced the govern ment, through the Minister Of the Interior Wilhelm kakrl Severing, to 90 formally on record against such a measure.
 Yet Poison Gas over Berlin, or the Dictatorship of the Future, al- thought it has been allowed two more semi-private showings, has not been opened to the Berlin pub lie. The outcome of the anti-censor- ship fight is, therefore, still unde- cidcd.
 After the first private showing. the picture was condemned as un- suitable by Captain Zoerelebel, chlet of the Berlin police. But his decl- sion was instantly opposed by d unit ed front of Communists. Monarch ists. Centrjsts and Social Democrats in an almost unprecedented harmony.
 In support of the police position. q resolution was then introduced Tn the Prussan Landtag, urging lcGis- lative control of the modern trend in the theatcr. With that the battle was fairly launched, and for days 1t swept across the pages ol the press. many of the CountryS lnoso prominent writers declaring that tho free development of Gcrmanys art. drama, literature and science was endangered.
 Finally, at a formal and crowded meeting of protest assembled Tn the hall of the former House Of Lords. inc Minister of the Interior ap- pcarcd in person and publicly dls- owned, in the name of the govern ment, any plans for q renewed censorship.
 There is no possible danger Of the passage of new censorship law" declared Herr SeNcrng.
 Gerhart Hauptmann, the famous dramatist. in an open letter read to the meeting, urged:
 T ct us not be deceived: keGula- tions like these are not directed against small impurities but against what is really great in art. only free art IS true art. Bound by rules, at cannot exist
 The poet Fritz Non tnruh, a for mcr adjutant to the Grown Prince now turned pacitist. declared the censorship d threat against the youth of Germany, and WolfganS Heine. a lawyer connected with the thcater business, added that the mission if the police is to put down "disturbers of the peace but not those whose peace is disturbed"
 "A permanent declaration ot war against all censorship was ina Fly voted in the form of resolution by the eighteen leading cultural and educational organizations rep resented at the meeting. They hay. now set about organizing q national campaign in defense of their faith.
