EMIGRATION FROM INDIA.
PRIESTS ASSIST TO STEM TIDE. AUTHORITIES ALARMED. (Received Thursday, 8.40 p.m.) OTTAWA, May 17.: The emigration situation in Quebec has become so serious that the Government has established an office in Montreal, directed by Catholic priests, for the purpose of discouraging French-Canadians, who comprise three-fourths of the population of the province, from, emigrating to the United States. The office will be informed by the parish priests of any communicants intending to leave the country and special pressure will be brought to bear on such, for the purpose of inducing them to stay.
