Great Influx of Undesirables
(Per United Press Association).
AUCKLAND,. March 30,
The news editor of the Toronto Globe, writing to a member of the Auckland Sijjr staff, says: "I rather fancy you do not know the conditions in Canada at the present moment. We have had a huge wave of immigration that has quite swanuied the capacity of the country. It will rake soem time to absorb the .half-million we have received within the last two years. The bulk of therie people are English, and quite too many of them, I am sorry to say, are from the ' East End of London. Our readers are giving dinners every day to something like 3700 recently-arrived immigrants, a fund of almost ,±'4ooo having been provided by our readers for that purpose."
