concerning the most vital feature OF
this calamity has been all but lacking.
The facts for which the outside world.
and especially the people of the United
States, have been looking up to this
time have been unavailable. This is a
condition due to two causes. First,
the ~suddenness of the c%alstnity, and,
second. its widespread effect.

flow from New York to Galveston.
Commissioner General Sargent of tho
Bureau of immigration will 60 to Gal
weston, Texas, within the next few weeks
to endeavor to facilitate the landing Of
immigrants at that Southern port. A
permanent inspection office will be es-
tablished and every effort put forth to
divert from New York to Galveston the
the metropolis. The people of the South
are clamoring for immigrants and bust
ness organizations are petitioning the bu-
reau to aid in securing them.
Galveston is held to be the natural
port for all the Southern, Central and
Western States. This section is the
most sparsely settled of any in the coun-
try. and is agriculturally and industrially
undcveloped. Commissioners Sargent
states that he believes the immSyznt
would be surrounded with more favor
able circumstances when landed in Gal
weston than in New York. In New York,
no matter where he Is from, he will find
some little section Of the great city
where his people congregate and his own
language is spoken. Afraid of the big
city and homesick, he will naturally go
among his W people and stay there. He
will continue to speak his own language
and remain a foreigner.
Were this same foreigner placed in the
broad and productive areas of the South
and West he would be thrown out among
an almost purely American population,
would find plenty of wholesome labor In
the open. an opportunity to make n home
for himself, and the positive necessity of
learning the English language. He would
be forced to abandon old ties and would
Immediately be absorbed into the citizen
ship of the and of his adoption.
1t is held that the Southern country
would be greatly benefited because of the
fact that trade follows immigration, and
the needs of the people coming from
abroad wonld be supplied at the port
through which they came, ~ .. p.

to make a bad matter worse in San Fran
