PROXY MARRIAGE.
AMERICAN IMMIGRANTS'

A situation rich in humour has suddenly developed in the adminis tration of the immigration laws of the United States.
Owing to three judicial deci- sions permitting aliens who have already landed here to bring in their wives, thousands of aliens are rushing towards American shores in defiance of the stern rule of the quotas.
The legal comedy was opened by a Jewish rabbi named Gottlieb who, after claiming and receiving exemption as a minister of the Gospel, claimed exemption for his wife. The court ruted that she could land on the ground that the quota law is an addition to the immigration law, not a substitute " for it.
