Immigrant Education Plan Aimed at New York Quarters
Five men, with Prof. Steiner of Iowa, study immigrant conditions abroad and will live overseas for months. Supported by the International YMCA, they will visit Ellis Island, assist newcomers with introduction cards, and distribute literature in multiple languages. The effort seeks moral and political education without religious instruction, to prepare families for later church outreach. An experimental center will test methods in Lower Manhattan, the world’s densest square mile.
