Plan to aid Italian immigrants through New York bureau
Commissioner Sargent approves Adolph Rossi and Bishop Broderick plan to create an information and labor bureau in New York aiding Italian immigrants. The bureau aims to divert migration from congested cities to the South and Southwest, protect immigrants from padrone schemes, and secure jobs in demand. Rossi says the Italian government does not encourage immigration but desires care for subjects here. Broderick will lead the bureau and they vow to uphold the anti–contract labor law while fostering orderly settlement and economic opportunity.
