The wives and unmarried children under eighteen of rabbis and professors who were admitted into America prior to July 1, 1924, will be admitted as exempt from quota according to an announcement made by Commissioner General of Immigration Hull. This reversal of the previous policy of the Labor Department is due to the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court to which Congressman Nathan Parlman called the attention of officials.
