MIGRATION

LEAGUE OF NATIONS. STARTS AN INVESTIGATION. (Received, June 17th. nt .8.45 p.m.) LONDON, June 16. It is learned, that the League of Nations International Labour Office has created a committee to investigate the migration question, presumably as the result of complaints of excessive restrictions on the part of countries to which migration is carried on. The Italian and Japanese Government delegates at the recent Geneva Conference drew attention to the necessity of the League Labour Office taking steps with a view to ameliorating the Labour conditions and the over-population -in, their respective countries. The Committee, nt present, is in an ombrvo State. It consists of three members, namely ,the French Government’s delegates, the Belgian employers’ representative, and the Dutch workers ’ representative. The Committee has a list of sixty experts, who may be called to give evidence on the migration conditions in various countries. A well-informed observer of the Labour Office developments states that it appeared that several nations, having received a setback in respect to the Peace Protocol, are now seeking to re.open the migration question, through •ho medium of the Labour Office, with the obioet of introducing unrestricted migration from Europe and Asia.

Racip. rt Notes

M. McCartcn, who is nearing the end of his term of suspension, is keeping his weight down to Bst., and it is expected that lie will rejoin the Fordell stables next season. J. Barry, who has been at Fordell since McCarten left, has beeen offered the riding of the crack t'wo-year.old Antonine next sea. son. The stable which shelters the lastnamed also has a rising two-year-old full sister to the unbeaten colt. Mr. D. J. Barry, of Gisborne,, who owns the pair is a remarkably good judge of a thoroughbred, and he is of the opinion that the filly will turn out as good as her doughty relative. A fresh arrival at Trentham is the King Mark mare MisGogcrn, who was. been acquired by a patron of H. i elford’s stables. Misgovern was formerly trained b F. Cress, but the latter has been compelled to again enter the i sanatorium. As the daughter of Pamela is not up to welter weights, Telford will spell her during the winter months. As the Hawk is still spelling, it is. not likely that J. M. Cameron will go back to Sydney until well into the next season. As a matter of fact, the little Martian gelding is always seen at his best in the autumn, and Cameron will probably give him a good long spell and confine his energies for the present to the task of winning a race with Molyneux. , A. E. Wormaid is spelling Kilris for a few weeks, and his active team consists of Tenterfield, and Voute, who will be kept going through the winter. E. Scoullar took Red Kriss south for the Dunedin meeting, but brought him home without a race. The Boni-

form gelding was all right, but his programme was cancelled owing to the illness of his owner’s wife. Ginutkiller who has been oft the | scene for a few months, will be taken in band again bv A. E. Wormaid very soon, and if he remains sound he will be rot readv for soring racing. Grim .Toko who is booked for a race in the steeplechase nt Motnkarara. has dome a fair amount of schooling lately. He shapes a trifle carefully at brush fences but doubtless ho will improve with experience, and IT. Nurse may convert the Martian gelding into a useful steeplechaser. Fireblight, who won two hack steeplechases at Trentham last July, and then had a disastrous visit to Ric. carton for the Grand National meeting I is again in commission. ( Duo is still in work at Hawke’s Bay t and with the prospect of soft tracks Imny do better than he did earlier in the season.
