PRESIDENT GIVES ORDER.
Care Must Be Used 10 Enforcing Chinese
Exclusion Act

Washington, d. c. (SpeciaD .--Presi-
dent Roosevelt is manifesting deep in
terest in the statements made to him
by delegation of members Of the
American Asiatic Association concerning
the difficulties which hitherto have been
experienced by Chinese merchants, stu
dents, travellers and literary men in gain
ing admission to this country.
The complaints of the Chinese Gov
ernment about the alleged humiliation
10 which members of these classes of
Chinese often are subjected upon their
arrival in the United States, together
with the threats of the commercial guilds
of China TO retaliate by boycotting Amer
ican-made goods, have also aroused the
business men of this country to pro-
test against what they regard as un-
reasonable discrimination in the enforce
ment of the Chinese exclusion laws.
In letter TO Secretary Metcalf of the
Department of Commerce and Labor,
the President directs him to see that
the immigration officers exercise discre-
ton in the enforcement Of the exclusion
law, to the end that the relations of this
Government with China may continue
to Dc cordial
1t is pointed out that great difficulty is
experienced by the immigration officers
in executing the law, because of the
many bogus certificates presented by Chi
nese. 1t is a well understood fact that,
for consideration, a Chinese coolie
may procure in China a certificate that
he is a merchant or traveller or a MEM
Der of another of the exempt classes.
On its face. the certificate entities him
TO admission to the United States. So
many frauds have been discovered in the
matter of these certificates that the i'm
migration officials examine all Of them
most carefully. That fact accounts for
the trouble experienced by genuine mer-
chants, travellers, etc, when they ar
rive at United States ports.
Thus far no feasible plan has been
worked out to remedy the trouble. Of
which the Chinese complain Secretary
Metcalf is in favor of Congressional leg
islation on the subject, providing for a
rigid supervision of the issuance of GER
tfcates in China, the idea being to hold
absolutely responsible for the accuracy
of the statements contained in the GER
tiicatcs the officials who issue them.
