The Best of Everything in the Best of the West STUDENTS HEAR ABOUT LAWS OF IMMIGRATIO Expert of Immigrants' Protec- tive League Also Talks of Aid for Newcomers An interesting address on the subject of the immigration and naturalization tent and effects--good and bad--was given by Mrs. Kenneth F. Rich, di- rector of the Immigrants' Protective league, before the students of the Na- tional Kindergarten and Elementary college last Thursday. Following the brief introduction to the personnel of the bureaus of im- migration and naturalization of the Department of Labor, which have charge of the public administration of these laws, and to the local officers of the bureau, Mrs. Rich said that in spite of the mistaken idea of many people to the contrary, there are at present many immigrants coming into the country and many immigrant problems to be met. "A great many people feel that at present there is no immigra- tion, but this is simply because they remember the time when immigrants came in by the millions and since the passing of the quota laws in 1921 this has decreased to between 290,000 and 706,000 a year. "These immigrants came to America because of political and religious per- secutions--the same reason that our CTHSHIHTHSHISRZTHS Maid Service B vthe hour, if you live at The John Evans, you may procure an efficient maid at a few minutes notice.

"And be- cause of economic conditions they were received with open hands." i League Aids Immigrants In telling of the origin and work of the Immigrants' Protective league, Mrs. Rich explained that "the locating {of relatives and friends from the tat- | tered, incomplete or illegible addresses carried by the immigrants is often very ! difficult and in the past many persons were ready to exploit the ignorance of the new arrival. Many communities Ifailed to realize the necessity of pro- |tecting the immigrant upon his arrival |in a new country, but Chicago did recognize this and established a center of distribution and the Immigrants" | Protective league, through which an "account is kept of persons who arrive |and their destination, and when neces- {sary an officer of the organization ac- companies them to their destination. "The process of immigration has be- come so involved with documents, pass- | ports and other papers," said Mrs. Rich, "that it is extremely difficult for an immigrant to comply with all the regulations, and the league assists many of them in solving their prob- lems, in reuniting families, etc. Cites Immigration Laws Mrs. Rich told of a few of the many immigration laws which have been passed during the period since 1882, particularly of the law of 1917 which lists between twenty and thirty ex- {Suded classes of persons--idiots, | vagrants, illiterates, etc.--who cannot be admitted to this country. "In 1921 the quota law established a limit to the number of persons who could be admitted to a certain percentage of the population of each country. In 1924 this percentage was placed at 2% and certain other quotas were estab- lished." The form and formula of taking out first and second citizenship papers was explained and Mrs. Rich told of the complications, often serious, sometimes amusing, which have arisen through the many recent changes in boundaries and rulers in Europe, which are most confusing to the immigrant who fre- quently renounces allegiances to the wrong country or the wrong ruler.
