The purpose of this division of infor-
nation is To let newly arriving lmihl-
Grants know from an official source
where they can most readily hnd en-
ployment away from the ports AT
which they arrive and generally away
from the large cities and populous CEN
ters. 1t busies itself in gathering the
requisite information and TecelVihs
applicatlons for laborers of different
kinds i'm various parts OF the country
which enables II TO assist materially IN
better distribution of immigrants
who do not come with their destina-
ton and occupation already settled.
If it's work Is effectively done its use
fitness is obvious. IL must be OF ma
teriaI service in bringing the supply
and demand for additional laborers to-
gether and distributing Immigrants to
their own advantage as well as the ad-
vantage TO those who have employ
ment for them.
But the IMMIGRANT Restriction
league is conducted on the delusive
| idea tnat lue MANIFESTATION VI i"SNA -
this country should be discouraged and
not assisted. 1t would put obstacles In
its way and prevent facilitating its dis
tribution. as a means OF hindering the
whole movement. It's policy is that OF
restricting the competition of foreign
labor i'm this country on the fallacious
assumption that it lessons employment
for that already here and tends to d.
minish wages. The other league has
been formed to combat that policy, and
while it sustains the effort TO keep Out
the undesirable among immigrants
that is, the criminal. the deceased and
the incapable, it favors liberal ane
encouraging policy and one that VIII
help to distribute the industrious an6
capable to the parts of the country
where their labor is most needed and
where they will have the best chance
There can be no doubt in rationa
minds as to which policy the law
should sustain.
