ALIEN INFLUX TO \MEKK AS STARTS ANEW SURVEY SHOWS Geneva Labor Offiee Finds Effeels of of Uepression Disappearing
GENEVA (UP)—An international labor office study on migration shows that the movement of European ami Asiatic workers to .the new world, which suffered a severe setback in the worst depression years,
is being revived gradually The survey deals with the international movement of workers who are recruited in one country and placed in employment in another, and with the status and treatment of these workers during the time they are engaged in their first job in the country of immigration. “Migration movements," the report states, “have undergone a profound transformation during the last decade. So far as total numbers are concerned, for example, while migration maintained a fairly high level until 1929 and in some countries 1930. with the coming of the depression it first diminished and then reversed its direction so that the number returning to their countries became larger than those emigrating. “Such reversal of the stream of
fication of measures adapted to ini-| j n conclusion, the report considers migrants, what at that time would | that the central problem which arises
today is “whether when recovery definitely sets in and spreads, fresh masses ot migrants shall be left to drill chaotically into countries of immigr ation in a swollen stream that will suddenly dry up: or whether the
surplus of labor | rimng stream shall be regulated by
international agreements and other suitably designed measures. The exprudences of the last few years would certainly seem to tell in favor of an attempt at systematic regulation.”
net have been able to find employment. This period of restriction should be succeeded by a period of cooperation between those countries which once again need foreign workers to develop their resources ami
those which have
available.
Referring specifically to South American conditions, trie report states that the principal countries ot immigration are Argentina and Btazi! and that most of the new settlers are agricultural workers. In Argentina. the number of immigrants in 1927 was 162.000 It then fell to i 129,000 in 1928. rose to 140.000 in 1929. and then fell rapidly to 26.000 in 1934. In Brazil there was a sim-

The lady mummy wan the wife of Sochem Nefer. who lived in Egypt about the same time but was not necessarily any relation of Ra Nefer of the curled lip, according to experts. Already a provisiunal claim has been launched that she and not “old Ra" is the oldest mummy known. Ra Nefer, who was discovered by Sir Flinders Petrie, is trying hard to maintain his dignity, and act as though he never had heard of Mrs. Sechem Nefer. His nose, a little battered by tomb robbers, retains its haughty curve. He seems always to be looking down at his visitors, and perhaps at this lady upstart. Hus green eyebrows green is his favorite color are curved jn aristocratic disdain. The line that once was his moustache he lived in the only Egyptian period when they were worn droops a bit wearily. The old man may, or may not. retain lus preeminence. In the meantime the wife of Sechem Nefer is in Egypt and Ra Nefer is relying on agme of his more modern claims to distinction. He is, for instance, the only mummy in the world who possesses a casein rib. He also has heen X-rayed, and probably holds the world’s record of successful operations performed on him. The withered old man has survived a broken neck, fractures of both arms, one leg. both collar bones and a serious break at the base of the spine. His ribs have been broken in a score of places ami /or all these injuries Dr. H. J. P!ender-|Keith of the British Museum laboratory prescribed successful treatment.
