LADY MACKENZIE REGRETS
IMMIGRATION RESTRICTION
NEW YORK.—(J. T. A.)—Lady
Mackenzie, widow of the late Sir John
Mackenzie, former governor of Bom-
bay and prominent in British society,
arrived in the United States recently
and is about to make a tour of the
country.
"The existence of America means
so much to us in England," she said
in an address before a group of uni-
versity students at the Army and
Navy Club. "Our eyes are fixed upon
you over here and we believe that the
destiny of the world lies in your
hands. You seem so gay and hopeful
and prosperous compared to us. It is
sad over in Europe and money seems
to have disappeared.
"It is indeed too bad that there is
a restriction on immigration because
thousands of people would he coming
to America if they could. There
would be shim enough to carry them,
if they were permitted to enter. It
is even a hardship for one to come
over first-class."

QUARTER CENTURY
MARK IS REACHED
BY WEIL AND CO.
To say that Well & Co. Is one of
the leading furniture stores of De-
troit is equivalent to saying that it,
ranks among the few really great
home making institutions of America.
Here is a store that has grown to
giant proportions in the comparative-
ly brief space of 25 years, and the
same attitude of simple friendliness.
and helpfulness that was inculcated,
into the policy of this institution by
its founder is as strikingly apparent
today as it was a quarter century ago
when the company first opened its
doors to the public of Detroit.
M. C. Weil, the founder of Weil'
& Co., was a man of sterling principle
and remarkable foresight. Ile knew
that square- dealing and unfailiw,
courtesy are the very substance of
success, and he made those two attri-
butes the fundamentals of the policy
of his business and a store that will
steadfastly abide by such a policy
without deviation for a quarter of a
century is richly deserving of success.
But success demands much more
than a passive adherence to a prin-
ciple. To be successful a attire must
have an organization that is aggres-
sive and keenly alive to every ad-
vantage that will redound to the
benefit of its patrons, and that pos-

In other words, II, store is successful
only in precise ratio to the quality of
its organization. Like a chain, an or-
ganization is only as strung as its
weakest link. There are no weak i
links in the Weil & Co. organization.
To change the figure, it operates with
the smooth, efficient precision of a
perfectly balanced machine, runn i ng'
at high speed. So quietly and so
surely does it function that the casual
visitor is entirely unaware of the in-
tense activity that is going on all
about him. The impression he re-
ceives as he enters the store is one

A super-special picture,picked

the Colonial Theater's program for

"Footfalls" is from a magazine

KOVN0.—(J. T. A.)—The inter-1
vention of relatives in the United
States and Canada is sought for Jew
iah immigrants who wish to return to
Lithuania who are prevented by the
Latvian government, which is said to
be using its geographical position in
order to exact extortionate sums for
permission to pass through the coun-
try.
The Lithuanian government has al-
ready paid out huge sums for this
permission, it is claimed. Meantime,
the returning immigrants are concen-
trated at Sebeach and are exposed to
cold, famine and epidemics.
This treatment of the Latvian gov-
ernment, characterized as inhuman
and traced to Latvia's desire for re-
prisals, is the reason for the sought-
for intervention of relatives in the
United States and Canada in behalf
of the immigrants concerned.
