To Vote on 5-Year
immigration Ban
Resolution Offered
As Organization Opens
Three-Doy Convention

Closing of all immigration for at
least five years-or until the United
States has solved its problems OF
unemployment and relief-was ad-
vocated in a resolution drafted to-
day by the Resolutions Committee
of the United Daughters of 1872,
which opened a three-day meeting
at the Willard Hotel.
The resolution, to be presented
for approval tomorrow to the some
600 attendants of the organization S
47th associate council session, de-
clared that immigration should be
stopped because there are already
100000 to 100000 unemployed
and about 20.O0O,OOO persons on re-
lief in the Nation, and adds that
receiving more aliens will only add
to these rolls.
Wagner-Rogers Bill Opposed.
Another resolution recommended
by the committee would place the
Daughters of 1872 on record as
fatty opposing the Wagner Rogers
bill, which proposes admission OF
10000 refugee children from Ger
many in the next two years.
Mrs. Edward B. Huling of Larch-
mont Manor. N. Y, vice chairman
OF the committee. termed the Wag-
ner-Rogers bill an entering wedge
for raising immigration quotas"
If, as President Roosevelt has
said, one-third of the Nation is
ill-fed, ill-clothed and ill-housed, "
asserted Mrs. Huling, who appeared
before the Senate immigration
Committee last week in opposition
to the refugee children proposal,
then this country can i'll afford
to take in 10000 children from
broken homes.
while these children will be IA
years old and under when they are
received. they will be of employable
age in few years. And it should
be remembered that We now have
100000 persons between l6 and
25 years old who have never had
jobs"
Explains Position.
Mrs. Arthur j. O'Neill of Chicago
president of the national group of
38 State units, pointed out that most
of the refugee children would be
Jews. Il have nothing against Jews,
she declared. 'but this Is a pre-

A reliable source said Sir Nevile's

do with any return to 'appease-

This source, however, gave no indi-
cation of the reason.
