La Vanguardia, Barcelona.-A decree
of the Argentine government prohibits
immigration to that country from jan

has either definite contract, backed
by q rigid guarantee, for the employ

depression.
Without taking time to examine into
the mysterious formula by which such a
conjectural sum might be confidently
established, we merely observe that
measures similar to those adopted by
Argentina to protect the opportunities
OF her citizenry have already been
adopted, or soon will be, by many other
countries.
The United States, with three times
the area and II times the population
of the Argentine Republic, has reduced

FOR BOARD
Temporary Teachers to Lose
Jobs; Retirement to Aid
Personnel Cut

Termination of the services Of
temporary teachers and Of teach
ers whose ratings are unsatisfac-
tory and the closing out of all
positions vacated by retirement,
resignation or death, are provided
in a four-point economy plan now
before the Board Of Education.
The plan, which also provides
for the retirement of teachers and
librarians who reach their seven
tieth birthday during the fiscal
year 1888 and those whose seven
tieth birthday occurs during the
next fiscal year, was drafted yes
terday as the school group met
as a committee of the whole to
devise ways and means of keep
ing within the 100000 personnel
slash in the pending 1884 supply
bill.
The plans are to be worked out
by DR.. Frank w. Ballou, superin-
tendent of schools, and are to be
acted on by June IA, and if passed
will become effective June 80.
According to the plans, there
will be no additions to the teach
ing staff. This, it was explained,
will throw a. heavier burden on
the remaining staff,
