CANADIAN IMMIGRATION PROBLEM Press AMCciatioa—By Telegraph—Copyright, OTTAWA, May 2. (Received May 3, at 10 a.m.) Mr Albert Chamberlain, president of the British Welcome and Welfare League of Toronto, speaking before the Immigration Committee, urged that financial assistance should be given to British women and children to join their husbands in Canada. He said that 1,000 men were living in Canada whoso families were in Britain. The league was prepared to assist in family reunions. If Canada would pay 50 per cent, the league could bring 50,000 women and children out. Canada must not become a melting pot. It must be kept British. —Australian Press Association.
