DEMARST LLoyp, Esq.. 
Washington, D, C.: 
The Woman's Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 
with membership exceeding 400,000, indorses the national-origins quota basis 
for immigration and opposes the Nye resolution to postpone. The society's 
sarposge is to train for home making and good citizenship. Its work is largely 
mong aliens and their children and at ports of entry, therefore it has practical 
knowledge on which to base this aefion.
