Europe sent a total of 2«,2f5 immigrant aliens to the Doited States in the last fiscal year, while 25«.<J* immigrant aliens left the United States for Europe, causing a decrease iu alien population of 16,13$. Immigrant aliens admitted from Asia numbered 17,665 and emigrant aliens departing for Asia numbered *,441, leaving an excess of *.*44. Resumption of immigration on a large scale and efforts to deport alien anarchists made the last fiscal year the busiest of any since the beginning of the Immigration service, the report says, "with indications that pre-war immsgraticn figures would be outdistanced unless affected by laws of this or other countries." "Chinese Immigration," the report continues, "shows an Increase over the preceding year, the number of admissions having risen from 3,340 coming for permanent residence in 1*1* to 4.S»0 in 1*26, these figures not Including aliens of the Chinese race granted transient privilege.

As stated in the last annual report, the practice then obtaining as to the admission of proxy brides a* alleged brides of Japanese In this country was not satisfactory to the department and the result was a new rule which promised a solution of the question. Contrary to this expectation the number of arrivals of such Wives increased from 3.1*S In 1*1* to 3,816 in 1*26. This temteacy caused continued study of the subject. Finally Japan fixed, by decree, the *»th of February of this year, the last day on which passports would be issued to so-called proxy brides sad as th* holders of such documents had six months In which to apply for entry. .<*member 1, 1126. saw the end of this system. ^ . "The too general terms of the gentieman's agreement’ and ex parte determination by officials of Japan of matters arising under its terms, bar# not been conducive at all times to the results anticipated by both conntrie* when the agreement was conceived." says the report. "Not only is clarification of the agreement needed if its main purpose in keeping laborers from coming to the United States is to be effected, bat systematic enforcement thereof by Joint administrative efforts should be brought about by both natloaa Frauds against both would thereby he materially checked If not entirely pre-

vented and the rights of aU concerned protected." Tenches Allen Anarchists. Turning to alien anarchists. Communists and kindred classes, Mr. Csminetti says the activities for the last twelve months in this line of work have been greater than all previous efforts in this direction. He reviews the arrests in November and, December, principally of members of the Union of Russian Workers, and | notes that of the 463 Russian* taken into custody orders Were issued for the deportation of 24*. Mr. Camlnetti says that while, these events were in progress the Communist and Communist Labor party became active and in the neighborhood of 5.66S warrants for arrests were issued. Approximately 3.66* of these warrants were served and S** of those arrested were ordered deported. Detailing immigration for the year, Mr. Camlnetti presents statistics to show that the proportioa of females among immigrant aliens as a whole was 42.4 per cent- of the tout! in 1*26 as compared with 33.5 per cent. In the four years before the war. He says this increase is especially noted in the case of Eoro- j peaa peoples among whom the proportion of females was consistently low prior to the world war.
