■FOREIGN-BORN
LABORERS ARE
LEAVING U. S.
NEW \ORK, Jan. 27 (by Associated
Press).—Nearly one million foreign
tf>orn laborers have left the United
States for Europe since the armistice
was signed, and one million more will
depart as soon as passport regulations
are made less strict, according to a
statement issued here by the Inter
* Racial Council, of which General Cole
man du Pont is chairman.
Tens of thousands of aliens are re
ported to be giving up their jobs pre
paratory to returning to their home
lands, it was said, and many of these
“as the result of racial prejudices
will take back with them stories about
America which will make this country
less attractive to immigrants.”
“The independence that has been
granted the countries of Europe,” it
was stated, “and the fact that 30,000,
000 persons, women largely, are
drawing aid from their governments
in the form of pensions, are factors
which detract from the incentive here
tofore existing for foreigners to seek
their fortunes in the United States.”
A nation-wide educational move
ment among thirty nationalities in this
country, having for its purpose the
endeavor to “adjust the foreign-born
to American life,” has been undertaken
by the council, which has held numer
our conferences with leading repre
sentatives of each race. More than
four hundred industrial and financial
organizations of the country are said
to be interested in the council, which
advocates “a liberal attitude on the
■j&art of the public toward immigra
tion,” as a result of the reported un
skilled labor shortage.
RADICAL CHANGES ARE
PLANNED IN RULES BY
| LAWN TENNIS DEVOTEES
NEW YORK, Jan. 27 (by Associated
Press).—A conference which may re
sult in radical changes in American
tennis rules will be held in this city

annual meeting of the United States
Lawn Tennis Association. 'Various
committees, which have been work

will present their recommendations to
tj^e association delegates from all parts
of the country. Revision of the play
ing rules, adoption of a new plan of
organization and voting power for the
association, and approval of a new
system of competition for the national
doubles championship are among the
•■4
more important matters to be consid
ered. These changes, the most radical
proposed in many years, will attract
widespread interest among the follow
ers of tennis, because of their influence
^ cm the future of the sport.

DO YOU GO
0 CHURCH?

IF NOT, THEN WHY NOT?
Are you one of those who blame
society for the present unrest, and say
the church is not doing its duty? Then
why not get into the church and do
your part? The church needs men
with ideas to carry it forward. Many
men today are following the ethics of
Christ although not professing Chris
tians, because they know He was!
right. That being so, why not sup
port His church and your time will
be well spent You say you attended
the church in the States? Why not in
