Irish Are Discouraged
From Emigrating to U. S,

A year ago the average number Of
visas supplied at the United States con-
sulate in Dublin for emigrants to Amer
lea was about so. This year only about
two visaS q day are being issued, and
the slump In emigration was never more
marked. The newspapers announced
that the United States was insisting
that all emigrants should possess at
least $500, and many Irish emigrants
could not find that amount. The an:
nouncement however, was not correct.
All that has happened Is that the
United States authorities have sent a
circular to the conSulates TO the effect
that only those intending emigrants
unlikely to become a public charge are
to be given visaS In the past emf
grants went to America as an adven-
ture and risked failing to find employ
ment. They are now warned that 1t Is
inadvisable for any one to apply for q
visa who is dependent upon his own
exertions or upon friends and relatives
who are themselves wage earners.
Friends and relatives in America have
Of late been discouraging young people
in Ireland to emigrate, and their warn
ing has greatly lesSened the number Of
applications for yiSas. The shipping
companies and the boarding house
keepers at Cobb and other ports report
q marked decline. There Is less unem-
ployment In the Free State than in
Northern Ireland or Great Britain, and
the general feeling - that young Irish
can do better at home.

Italy Bans Foreign
Diplomatic Weddings

Woe to the Italian diplomat who

bers Of the italian diplomatic and con-
sular corps who wish to marry viii in
the future be obliged to choose their
prospective brides from among their own
countrywomen. This order, which hith-
erto seems to have been the rule rather
than the exception, many Of Italy's di-
plomatists having often pronounced their
Isl" in favor of women of foreign ma
tionality. Is soon to have legal force. A
bill in this connection was recently pre-
sented to Parliament by Signor Grandi.
the foreign minister. Applications made
by italian diplomatic officials for per
mission to marry will not be forwarded
to the King for approval If the other
party to the proposed marriage Is a
foreigner. The bill points out that this
is already the practice in a number of
other European countries, and the only
way clever diplomat can get around It
Is by convincing his American or Ger
man sweetheart, who have more than
other nationalities become wives of Ital-
ian diplomatists, to become Italian citi-
Sens before being married.

power of the public2"
But what is the answer2"
"The intelligent cooperation OF all interested
parties in practical efforts at solution"
What does this imply2"
MANY things" said Mr.. Vol, "but frst Of all
we must get accurate information on unemploy-
ment. We must set up agencies whereby we will
know at all times the conditions OF unemploy-
ment. Just now nobody knows how much Of it
there is. Some say 100000 men are not work.
ing, others say 6000.0 900.
When q man becomes sick and calls q doctor,
the latter's first step is to obtain all data the
case That is practical. In industry we need
permanent organization that VIII enable US to
observe employment tendencies"
Science Points the Way
"Have we the means Of such organiZation2"
"Yes The science Of statistics is more highly
developed than ever before. An important fea-
ture of industrial development has been the
growing usefulness Of the statistical engineer. He
is an essential factor In arge-scale business. But
his must be a larger function than merely private
SERVICE he must be employed for the general
good. If the whole social order Is affected ad-
versely, his own order is affected.
Probably the machinery for recording unenl-
ployment will have to be provided by legislation.
But we do not favor legislation to force the COM
pliance Of industry. Organized labor has made
voluntary principles the corner stone Of It's phos-
ophy. Government cannot control industry.
Correction Is Good Business.
at is probable that industry would find itself
hampered by such outworn statutes as the Sher-
man antitrust act we're it now to make any CO.
operative attempt TO solve unemployment. Not
withstanding improved industrial relationships
and greater degree Of public confidence in IN
dustrial management than ever before, 1t doubt
less would be suspected Of some Interior motive.
Despite all obstacles, however. we can expect
steadily increasing study Of the problem Of un-
employment and Of remedial action. 1t Is q mat
ter Of good business IS well as social need
"A large proportion Of industrial leadership
perceives this truth, and recognition by the re-
mainder will come as time passes. It II impos-
sible to predict In terms Of time, but resulting
action seems certain to come. 1t viii be but q
further step In the progress which industry has
made in the modern era toward stability and
contentment.
THAT Is why I say that 1t is probable we are
In the process Of passing from discussion to q
serious search for solution Of unemployment.
Perhaps we cannot control 1t completely. But
we certainly can do much better than we are do
ing now. Once we have the data with which to
diagnose this disease we shall be able to apply
the remedies, the nature of which we already are
beginning to comprehend"

The building, specially constructed
for the test, is Of the most modern
type of wooden construction used on
smaller airports in this country. The
plane, one of 20 to be burned in the
test, is a condemned service plane worn
out in active duty and unfit for further
flying.
The test will be conducted with the
cooperation of the Army and Navy
Departments and the national aviation
and insurance companies, and upon the
results may depend future insurance
rates on airport buildings
In the first test tomorrow the wall of
the building will be set afire by gaso-
line blow torch set on workbench and
the fire will be allowed to ignite wing
of the plane overhanging the bench. In
future tests from one to four planes will
be involved.
More than a dozen different types of
commercial automatic sprinklers have
been installed in the hangar and fires
will be arranged so as to thoroughly
test each type under conditions likely
to be encountered in hangar fires.
More than $50 aeronautical engineers
representatives OF Federal aviation

Federal EmpIoye.

The United States Supreme Court
today refused to decide whether part
of the monthly salary of Government

two cases brought by Mrs. Olive S.
McGrew against her former husband,
John L. McGrew. and his second wife,
Mrs. Catherine D. McGrew. The NC

Mrs. Olive S. McGrew alleged that
she loaned her former husband about
the time they were married $1,000 on
his pronissory notes, he at that time
owning real estate in Washington and
Virginia. After their divorce McGrew
married his second wife, Catherine D.
McGrew, who had been an employee in
a department store here. The first Mrs.
McGrew brought suit and obtained a
Judgment against McGrew for $1,000
with interest, but was unable to find
anything to satisfy it.
The first Mrs. McGrew then found
that the second Mrs. McGrew had title
to house in the 1900 block on Irving
street, to another on Eighteenth street,
also to an automobile and to a safe
deposit box. Alleging that the second
Mrs. McGrew had no money at the
time of her marriage, and that the
property had been placed in her name
by McGrew to conceal his ownership,

asking that a receiver be appointed
to take possession of the property and
pay the judgment she held.
After litigation it was finally held by
the lower court that the evidence failed
to disclose that the real estate, auto
mobile and lock box was property of
McGrew, and that the salary of Nc
Grew, who is a clerk in the Internal
Revenue Department at $4,000 a year,
could not be attached.
The trial court had ordered that all
of McGrew's salary with the exception
of 500 a month should go to the first
wife until the judgment was satisfied,
but the Court of Appeals took the po-
sition that the salary of Government
clerks could not be garnisheed while in

make the payments, condition consid-

Annual Report, Due May IS,
Is Basis for Raises and
DismiSSaIS.
SYSTEM is PROTESTED
BY WORKERS LEADERS
Experts Defend Rating Scheme as
Best Method for Determining
Worth of Personnel.

The efficiency ratings of thousands
of Government employees under the
classification act now are being sur
veyed critically by superior officers,
with a view to changing these records
and bringing them up to date for the
annual report of May Is.
1t is upon the basis of these efficiency
reports that Government workers are
promoted, denoted or dismissed.
Under the law, the efficiency report
on each Government employe under
the classification act must be submitted
on May Is to the personnel clasSif1ca-
ton board.
While the efficiency records are based
on the year ending May is, the changes
in salary which may result generally
throughout the service probably will not
take effect until later.
Funds in the various establishments
are beginning to run low on account
of the approaching end Of the fiscal
year, June 80. What promotions may
result from the new efficiency ratings
are expected to go into effect after
July l.
The matter of promotions rests with
officials of the various departments and
establishments of the Government who
have authority to make such promo
tions under the classification act as
they have appropriations to finance.
All efficiency ratings must be re-
ported to the personnel classification
board, but the boards authority in this
respect, as explained by its chairman,
Capt. Carlos Van Leer, consists mostly
of cases in which demotion or dis
charge for ineficiency is concerned.
The efficiency rating system has been
roundly scored by some representatives
of Government employees and has been
vigorously defended by experts.
