Hungarian government agreed to de-

ger referred to Is the dumping by
European countries of their paupers
and dependents upon the American

THAT this danger Is tangible is
shown in the fact that majority OF
the deportations are for the reason
that the persons involved are likely
to become public charges. The annual

There are in the desks OF govern

ed that they dare not be published
until the government Is ready to act.
for the reports are but an arrangement
of the governments of southern Europe
for completely In wholesale schemes for
the violation of United States immi-
grafton laws.
These reports are received from the
most trustworthy sources, one Of
which is from government agent,
paid to investigate the conditions
abroad, and whose persistency In that
direction has 80 aroused at least one
European nation that its paid spies
have followed him all over Europe;
whose mail has been rified, and who
was arrested and fined in the city Of
Buda-Pesth when he violently objected

Out of this later incident will grow
q vigorous effort on the part Of the
government to SO change the immigra-
tion laws as to put stop to the dump
ing of Europe's undesirable classes

An Investigator Selected.
Marcus Braun, born In Hungary,
though now a citizen OF the United
States, was selected by President
Roosevelt to act as special agent
of the United States In investigating
the wholesale violations of our immi-
grafton laws. The request for such
an appointment came through the
anti-vice societies OF Philadelphia,
which were anxious to put stop to
the white slave" traffic by which
thousands Of Hungarian women were
being sent to the United States for
immoral purposes. Mr. Braun's in

edA They have never been examined
save by three or four heads OF i'm
portant government departments, and
by the president. but sufficient has
leaked out to enable us to give the
gist Of emigration conditions abroad
as outlined by Mr.. Braun as follows:
Tens of thousands of foreigners are
permitted to emigrate to this coun-
try without the fumigation of their
baggage as provided by law.
The organized gangs of crooks who
connive at this evasion stamp the emf
grants belongings with counterfeit
government labels and counterfeit
United States consular stamp, indicat-
ing that their baggage has been prop
erly fumigated.
These counterfeits are accepted at
Ellis Island without question, and lug
gage from European centers. scourged
with bubonic plague, cholera, ira
choma, smallpox and the germs of
deadly fevers, Is permitted to enter
our ports daily.
For this counterfelting service the
Italian gangs In particular charge five
lire, or one dollar.
In several Of the European countries
1t is the custom to promise convicted
criminals immunity from punishment

or II their relatives will send them

100000 Immigrants.
The fiscal year will end June 80, and
by that time 100000 will have passed
through Ellis Island and other immi-
grafton depots within the past ~
months. The reports submitted by the
inspectors abroad show conclusively
that out of this number one in every
ten Is either criminal or is otherwise
an undesirable citizen for the United
States, and these undesirable citizens
are coming to our shores either by
the aid and encouragement of Euro
pean governments, or under the
''padrone' system by which an unde-
sirable class of men. women and chill
dren are brought to this country un-

Roadway In England with the opening
of the recent rate war between the
Atlantic steamship lines. and during
the interval between the first sale OF

ton of the American authorities in de-
porting such assisted persons.
Naturalization Frauds.
The present system of issuing nat
uralization papers in the United States
is prolific source of fraud in the emf
grant traffic. An American naturaliza-
ton certificate carries on its face no
means of Identifying the real owner.
His name IL merely stated. An origi-
nal or certified copy Of one OF these
papers can be sent to an intending
emigrant in any foreign country and
used by him to secure q passport. on
the ground that the certificate Is his
own and he, as an American citizen,
Is entitled to enter the United States
regardless of his possible undesirable
ty under the immigration law. AS
rule the alleged citizen speaks some
language requiring the services OF an
interpreter, generally of limited In
telligence, and. careful ross-examina-
ton Is impossible. When his applica-
ton for passport has been approved
by the American consul nothing Is
left for the embassy to do but to grant
a passport upon these representations,
which passport guarantees admission
to the United States. sr
Another form of abuse Is the I'M
portation of women from the Levant
and elsewhere by naturalized Amer
lean citizens. All these women are
required to do IL to state under oath
that they are the wives OF the men
sending for them and they are allowed
to depart for the United States with
out restriction. becoming American
citizens by virtue OF their husbands
naturalization.
IF they are refused transportation
because OF coming within the prohib-
tied classification of the American Inn
migration law they send to the United
States for certified copy Of their. al
legged husbands naturalization papers
and secure . passport In that man
ner. There IL no proof Of marriage
under the present system. Should the
United States government decide to re-
quire a passport from each immigrant,
certified by the oficiaIs OF the land
OF his nativity. this abuse could be
stopped"
