COMESS WILL . FACE BATTLE ON ALIEN LAWS Deportation Wings to Be Clipped If Fight Is Successful. BY KENNETH G. CRAWFORD Times Stiff Writer BUFFALO, N. Y„ Oct. 26—A fight for liberalization of present alien deportation laws has been promised by congressional candidates from Buffalo districts. Regardless of whether Republicans or Democrats are elected, there will be at least three men In the house of representatives definitely pledged to work before the immigration committee for legislation to clip the deportation wings of Labor Secretary W, N. Doak, or his successor. Representative Edmund Cooke of the Forty-second district, one of the sponsors of the Dickstein bill, which would permit naturalized aliens to bring members of their families into this country on a non-quota basis, hopes to fora that measure to a vote. Scores of foreign born citizMis In Buffalo have found it impossible to bring members of their families still in -Europe to their new homes under the drastically reduced quotas. And the number of broken families dally is be.ng increased by deportations. Boy Faces Orphan Asylum Almost every man and woman deported leaves In this country the remnants of a family. In most cases members not held deportable by the immigration bureau find It impossible to get together the cost of voluntary passage. Recently at Niagara Falls, labor department operatives found a flaw in the method by which Mr. and Mrs. Angus Mac Clean, a Scotch couple, gained admittance to the United States in 1927. They misrepresented facts about themselves in their applications for entry. They were ordered sent back to Scotland. But their 3-year-old son, born in this country, was a citizen of the United States. Immigration officials could not provide his passage money. Neither could the MacCleans. Neighbors saved the boy from an i orphan asylum. Held "On* Suspicion” In many such cases the state welfare department has footed the transportation bill for children, who were citizens, to accompany their parents who were not. There is no prdvlsion in the federal law to provide for such cases. Ccoke also will propose a bill, if to set a definite time on the t.me prospective deportees may be;held by immigration authorities for investigation. He wants to make it impossible for aliens to be held on suspicion of wrong doing for the better part of a year and then released, as they hnve been repeatedly in Buffalo. In one such case, immigration officia’s under .Arthur J. Karnuth, of the local force, were reprimanded severely by Federal Judge John Knight-for holding a prisoner seven months without sufficient evidence for banishment. The prisoner was a 21-year-old Italian girl, •Christina Farrara. Inquiry Is Demanded She was arrested unceremoniously and held in jail seven months before a lawyer finally was hired by her friends to seek a writ of habeas corpus. After a hearing on the evidence she promptly was dismissed. Representative James M. Mead, chairman of the house postoffice committee, a Buffalo congressman running for re-election, Tuesday called to the attention of Chairman Samuel Dickstein of the house Immigration committee, deportation abuses brought to light by the Buffalo Times. In a letter to Dickstein, Mead demanded a thorough investigation of the immigration bureau’s activities in this district, with a view to enactment of legislation depriving the labor department of its present omnipotence in deportation cases. Volunteers Defend Aliens Henry Adsit Bull, another congressional candidate, has promised an attempt to repeal the wartime law providing that any alien guilty of “subversive views” is eligible for exile. Meanwhile, a group of twentyfive lawyers, including a one-time bar assoication president, a city ju.’ge, a state assemblyman, three former federal attorneys and several former members of the district attorney’s staff, have organized a volunteer committee to defend aliens now held in Buffalo and vicinity.

PROVE PLANTS GO TOCANADA Toronto Commission Shows Move From U. S. By Scrippt-ffotcard Xetcspaycr Alliance TORONTO, Oct. 26.—The Toronto industrial commission has issued a statement here, completely deflating statements given wide circulation in the United States expressing doubt as to the reality, extent or stability of recent American branch factory developments in Canada. In a survey of new industries of United States origin, the commission reports conditions in nearly 100 subsidiary or affiliated concerns, which started production in the Toronto area alone since March, 1929. This survey shows that the new factories occupy nearly 1,000,000 square feet of floor space, have upward of $4,000,000 new capital invested, and are giving employment to more than 2,300 additional workers. Os the newly arrived industries, 87 per cent report their business as being “very good,” “good,” or “fair.” Twenty per cent have increased their plant facilities during the past year. Eleven per cent have increased the number of their employes. Less than 5 per cent have reduced their staffs. SETTLE PAY DISPUTE • WITH BALLOT - CH#S County Council Agrees to Give Commissioners $2,000 Each. Under a compromise * effected Tuesday the Marion county council agreed to pay Allen W. Boyd and Walter Pritchard, county election commissioners, $2,000 each for their services this year. This means a saving of $2,000 for the county, as a circuit court decree directed that each commissioner receive $3,000 for his work. Asa result of the agreement, services of the commissioners in the May primary will cost $2,500 and in the election Nov. 8, the cost will be $1,500. Boyd and Pritchard obtained a mandate order from circuit court fixing payment after the county county refused a request for $3,000 each.

Tabulation of Mileage Must Be Completed by Jan. 1. Every mile of roadway in the state is to be traversed by state highway department crews by Jan. 1, and a tabulation made of the mileage, as required by a statute passed at the special legislative session. Thirty crews of three men each already are employed in this work and the personnel will be raised to fifty-five crews to complete the work, John J. Brown, director, said. The data is to be used for gasoline tax distribution on a mileage basis. Each crew consists of the driver of the automobile, and two engineers making the record. Figures are taken from the speedometer. In many Instances local cars are employed and paid for at the rate of 6 cents a mile, Brown said. In southern Indiana one driver resigned recently when his car got stuck six times in measuring one muddy road. Where roads are impassable, men are employed with bicycles to walk along, and make the count from a cyclometer attached to the frame of the bicycle. Highway officials estimate that, exclusive of 8,275 miles of roads in the state system, there are approximately 65,000 miles of roads, many without gravel or stone surface, to be measured and the mileage clocked before the first of the year. WOOL SALES HEAVY ■ Sears, Roebuck Uses Huge Share of State Yield.

DOCTOR PARLEY FINE SPOT FOR ‘FREEJUNCHEIT It's So Good He Leaves the Scene With a Decided List. Paradise lost has found itself. Remember the old days when one could attend a food show and get enough vitamins aboard to postpone the evening meal? Remember the literature one could gather, as well os edibles? Well, one free-lunch addict got into the Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association meeting in the Murat temple today. On the stage, doctors w r ere giving the “lowdown” of getting fat, while on the two floors of the technical and scientific exhibits the freelunch expert was stowing away three different kinds of malt drinks, two coffee brands, and one that’s merely a playlike coffee, gelatin candy, and other tidbits in a practical demonstration of the art of fattening. Ziegfeld blonds went with the drinks served. The free-lunch—one was listing with his load of literature and light foods. His hands were jammed with statistical booklets on maternity corsets, leg braces, the cause of cancer, and the use of shadocol for making 3f-ray pictures of "innards.” He bumped into a 125-pound halibut parked over a booth. Truly he was at sea and no rail near. The demonstrator glibly re-

lated the merits of his product—halibut liver oil. “It’s only been out since January. It has sixty times the vitamin A potency of cod liver oil. It used to be that halibut livers were tossed into the sea as uesless, but now ten drops of it is equal to three teaspoons of cod liver oil,” he explained. No longer need faces go awry at taking cod liver oil. Who couldn’t swallow ten drops? Policemen guard every door in the Murat. You can’t park your coat, send a telegram from the special booth provided, nor mail a letter at the doctor's own postofflee, without stumbling over a bluecoat and apologetically explaining your right to be inside. , “It's to keep out physicians who are not in good standing and gate crashers,” whispered one doctor.
