U. N. REPORTS ON MIGRATION:
People On The Moue
Are World Problem

During the war. millions of
people migrated especially
from occupied areas. In China
alone. 42.0o0.000 people have
moved loo to 1000 miles from
their homes. Europe. in the
four years after 1889. saw the
uprooting Of some 30.000.000
people.
Many more millions would
like to migrate if they could.
Recent public opinion sur
veys in several European coun-
tries show that from Is to %
percent of the people inter
viewed would like to live else
where.
War and it's effects stimu-
late migration, but a report Of
the United Nations Secretar-
lat shows that the problem is
of worldwide concern even
in peacetime and has profound
economic social and political
effects.
China is the greatest emigra-
ton center in Asia. Emigra-
ton is favored by the Chinese
authorities, in particular be-
cause the remittances of emf
grants are important to Chi
mas balance of payments. Be
tween eight and ten million
Chinese are settled abroad.
During the Second World War
about 1000, 900 Chinese tech
nicians and skilled or semi
skilled workers returned to
help in the war effort. Mean
while, as a result Of military
operations, gigantic popula-'

streams of world migration, is
estimated for the period 1920
1916 at about $4,000.
Before 1914, however, the
effect of migration on the pop
ulation of receiving countries
was profound. In Canada, for
example, immigration in the
first decade of this century
was the chief factor in a pop
|ulation increase of "a percent.
Before the First World War,
and in the interwar period as
well, the overwhelming major
ity of immigrants to the West
|ern Hemisphere came from
Europe. immigration from the
Far East has been very limit
ed.
The two main sources of
Immigrants in Europe today
are Italy and the displaced
persons camps in Asia, sever
al important areas are conges-
ted and the main obstacle to
emigration is d lack Of OPEN
.ings abroad.
Since the war, the attitude
OF receiving countries seems to
have relaxed somewhat. This
does not portend, however, a
revival Of free migration. All
receiving countries insist on
the need to organize migra-
ton so that social, economic,
and political EMBELLISHMENTS
in their territory will be pre-
vented. Consequently, the
main types of prewar restric-
tons are still in force.
The report points out that
the selection of migrants is of
concern not only to receiving
countries but also to countries
of origin. The countries of orr
gin want to ensure that their
nationals get the best possible
conditions in their new homes
the same time, however,
their policy is to discourage
the departure of people need
ed in the national economy.

ton displacement took place
in the country.
After China, India has been
the main Far Eastern source
of emigrants. Today between
three and four million Indians
live abroad. In addition, some
100000 Japanese are living
outside of their homeland.
The report makes the follow
ing observations of the Far
Estearn migration problem:
During the period from 1914
to 1888. migration inethe Far
East probably exceeded that
in Europe. Since it was accom-
plished under hardship condi-
tions. it involves great social
problems.
Against the massive popula-
lions of the Far East. the vol
ume Of migrants is small. Mi
grafton does moi have a major
influence on the rate of
growth Of population.
However, even on IFS pres
emf scale. migration can help
to relieve some Of the acute
difficulties of the countries of
origin.
On the other side of the
world between 1916 and 1887,
nearly $4,000, 900 Europeans
left their countries for new
overseas. A rapid in
crease in population was per-
haps the most important cause
of this movement.
To their countries Of origin
this outflow Of population
meant that the division Of land
, 1948-06-03


pressure on industrial wages
alleviated. Immigrants remit
tances to their relatives be-
came a source of foreign ex-
change. Further, it meant a
smaller number of births,
since most of the emigrants
were young and a large num-
Der were men.
European, countries with an
Atlantic seaboard benefited
first from the effects of migra-
ton. AS long as ocean-going
ships were small and slow and
railways inadequate, the in
habitants of coastal areas had
a definite advantage over the
other Europeans. Later, as i'm
proved transportation became
available to eastern and south
.ern Europeans, the situation
changed.
Overseas emigration fell
during the First World War to
one-fourth its prewar average,
but the sufferings resulting
from the war caused emigra-
ton to increase once more.
After 1927, European emigra-
ton settled at about 10000 a
year--a tenth of the prewar
annual average. To this must
be added migration within
Europe itself.
Restrictions on immigration
such as the adoption by the
United States of the quota
system in 1921, was the main
cause of this reduction. The
net result of reduced emigra-
ton from Europe was a check
on the rise in the standard of
living.
AS important as restriction
itself was discrimination in
the legislation of countries of
immigration. Nationals of
southern and eastern Euro
pean countries were admitted
to receiving countries in much
smaller numbers than citizens
of northern and western coun-
tries.
Before 1914, the United
States received about so per-
cent of all who migrated from
Europe. This proportion fell
ultimately to 80 percent. Other

Harold C. Ezell. City Commits

spection of the Pascagoula Sew
age Disposal Plant made in
August and September of 1947
by the assistant sanitary engineer
of the State Health Department,
covering the operational set-up of
the plant. Recommendation for
putting the disposal plant in good
operating condition we're taken
from a letter written to DIR. An

the Jackson County Health de-
partment, by H. A. Krooze, direct
or of sanitary engineering. A
follow-up inspection was made
in March 1913 according to Mr..
Krooze's letter and the recon-
m~endations had not been carried
out and the plant was in poor
operating condition.
Mr.. Ezell told the club that a
personal inspection tour of the
plant several days ago showed
that 80 per cent of the raw sew
age is being by-passed into the
river and raw sewage pumped
into sludge beds.
Easton King, editor Of the
Chronicle Star. pointed out the
need for a full time health Off
Ger, instead of an officer serving
two counties as large as Harrison
and Jackson. MI. King stated
that this was not a personal quar-
rel with DR.. Hedmeg or any of
the Jackson county health Off
cials, and that he would be glad
to welcome DR.. Hedmeg as a full
time health officer of Jackson
County, but not as a part time
official.
Mr.. King pointed out that at
the time the two counties were
the set-up was to be
only temporary and that this
situation had been brought about
due to a shortage in health Off

Rev. Schneider
Speaks to Jackson
County Council

The Rev. Arthur Schneider
chose the problems of youth and
the influence of their family en-
vironments as the subject of a
talk 10 the members of the Jack
son County Home Demonstration
Council at a meeting held on
Thursday at the Agriculture
building.
Family life and background
are the causes of much Of the so
called juvenile delinquency, Rev.
Schneider said, according to a
survey conducted at a detention
home.
Children that are to be good
citizens, he said, need more than
an education. They need moral
development and security with
a feeling of being wanted. A
good family produces good child
rem as a rule.
During the business session of
the meeting a letter from Miss
Sallie Hill, editor of the Home
department of the Progressive
Farmer, was read which called
attention to an article entitled,
'We Prefer Seafood' which is to
appear in the October issue. It
will feature recipes from the
cooks of Jackson county for the
preparation of seafoods.
Another communication from
Miss Elaine Massey, district
agent, was read in which she
complimented Mrs. J. G.. Harris,
state chairman of the All club
Advisors committee. who made a
report at a recent meeting of the
state Home Demonstration Coun-
Gil at State College.
Four clubs were represented at
the Council meeting with the
following members present, Mrs.
