WEAK POINTS
EXIST IN THE LAWS ON
IMMIGRATION
Report OF Commissioner General of Immi-
grafton Touches the Subject Of the
White Slave Traffic.

stated, are SO limited as to make
it essential if any marked progress
is to be expected, that the states
and cities shall awake to the seri-
'ousness of the situation and ex-
ercise their undoubted authority
to put down the evil.
During the year there was a
marked increase in the deportations
as result of the campaign against
the traffic The provisions on this
subject in the bill submitted by
Mr.. keefe to carry out his recon-
mendations are in principle the
same as in the bill which already
has passed the house, except that
they do not go as far in the, fea-
lures affecting interstate regulation
of the practice.
Qualification is expressed as re-
suit of the experiment in immi-
grafton control as affecting the
Japanese, constituted by law, pro-
clamations and regulations follow
ing the anti-Japanese agitation in
California several years ago.
There has been material reduc-
| tion in both the number of Japan
ese admitted and deported. In
1908, 9,544 Japanese were ad-
mitted to continental United States
and S,694 to Hawaii, while for
1909 the corresponding figures are
2,432 and 1,493. The number ad-
mitted to the mainland and Ha-
waii was only about 25 per cent
and II per cent. respectively, of the
numbers for 1908.
Contrary to the general impress
sion Chinese admitted to the Unit
ed States have increased during the
past four years and Mr.. Keefe is
pessimistic regarding the operation
of the law. He concludes that the
system of exclusion 'and expulsion
afforded by it is but lily adapted
for either purpose. He says:
Despite all that is said and al
that is done, the bureau is always
confident at the close of any veal
that many Chinese of the excluded
classes have evaded the border of
ficials, however vigilant they may
have been, have smuggled them
selves or been smuggled ashore IL
seaports as sailors or stowawayS
or have by fraud and perjury man
aged to land in an apparently reg
ular manner. There are doubtless
now in the country at least a
many Chinese not entitled to resi-
dence here as of the lawfully resi-
dent class, and they have entere(
in every way that can be imagined.
1t is urged that the exclusion
laws be merged into the genera
immigration law, so that the ad
ministrative process of expulsion
: therein provided may be used.
: There are also a number of othe
3 recommendations which the commits
sioner says may be considered re
: volutionary, but are regarded a
3 necessary If the law IS to be et
5 fective and satisfactory.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Not
further restriction but merely to
make possible such restrictions as
the existing law intends but has
not accomplished, is the subject of
proposed new immigration law
recommended by Daniel Keefe, the
commissioner general of immigra-
tion in his annual report for the
fiscal year 1909. 1t is proposed
to accomplish this by codifying, ar
ranging in logical sequence and
Strengthening at their weak points
all existing laws on the general sub
ject of immigration and Chinese
exclusion.
Some of the principal suggestions
are:
So defining the term "alien' as
to leave no doubt that it includes
all persons not citizens; extending
the contract labor provisions to
forbid and penalize the inducement
of immigration by false as we'll as
genuine promises of employment,
penalizing an attempt to import
foreign laboreN, and permitting the
importation of alien skilled laborers
If labor of like kind unemployed
can not be found here only if the
consent of the secretary of Com
merce and labor is obtained in
advance; increasing the fine against
steamship companies for taking on
board dangerously diseased aliens
| from 500 to 5000.
Mr.. Keefe believes the time is
ripe for the adoption of even
stricter measures and suggests that
a proposal worthy of careful
thought is that all male aliens be-
tween Is and so years of age be
required to pass a physical exam
1 ination equal to that observed fol
army recruits
Touching the white slave" traf
fic the report sets out that 6
special investigation conducted
throughout the country and the
general experience of the year
make it apparent that an enormous
business is done in importing an(
distributing foreign women for i'm
moral purposes, including the Sc
