Flow Of Immigrants To Canada Shows Increase

, orrrrslvs. (09) -With entries '10 per cent higher in October than

a year ago. Canada was virtually A

assured of more immigrants be- fore the year's end than landed last year.

The immigration departrnent an- nounced Thursday that Octoberis 18,694 arrivals boosted the immi- gration total in the first 10 months of the year to 143,722. This is two per cent lower than the 146,236 in the similar period last year.

The October increase was the biggest this year. A steady in- crease began in May reaching a climax in October. -

The l0-month tally showed a 10 per cent mcrease in United King- dom arrivals to 40.390 from 36.637 and a seven per cent increase in arrivals from northern European countries. to 81.568 from 57,472 U. B. arrivals dropped one per cent. Those from other countries were down Z3 per cent.

Fewer Russians

If the rate of increase of the last six months continues, Canada should easily exceed the l64.49O arrivals of last year.

The pattern of innniltration this year-fewer aniivals from January to May and substantial increases in the summer and fall--reflects a policy being carried out this year for the first full year.

The aim is to encuui-size arri- vals during the months when it is easiest to establish a home and find employment.

In the 10-month period. Ger- mans made up the largest single group of immigranvis-30,798 com- pared wtih 25.307 during a sim- llBl' period last year.

Some of the sharpest drops were noticeable in Polish arrivall. down to 2.746 from 5,155. and Rugian

down to 415 from 1.012. a. 3.
