considerations in restricting lmmlgra-

"The present immigration move

emigration from Europe Is not now an
absolute economic necessity and as q

cessity Of escape from intolcrable ones
This fact should largely modify the nat
ural incentive to treat that immigration
movement from the standpoint of senti-
ment and permit its consideration pri-
marily as an economic problem.
Proposes Restrictions.
The commission presents several pro
posals by which restriction of immigra
ton might be effected including q read
ing and writing test, the exclusion of
unmarried unskilled Iaborcrs, limita
tiona in the number arriving at any
port and from particular races and re-
strlctions as in the amounts Of money

Efforts to exclude all British East In

tion law to make il applicable to alien

WASHINGTON, Dec. o." Lame
duck'' has come To be term of de-
fortunate candidate for senator OF con-
gress who comes limping into Washing
ton after biennial election, to serve
ont the fragment of term when the
people have Just refused TO re-elect him.
Generally he wears an eGpectant look
and is an early caller at the White
House. 1t is easy To get newspaper
interview out of him telling how IN
spite Of appearances the people are
still strong for the president and If
perchance the interview be printed YOU
may sec the lame duck at the White
House early the next morning with the
newspaper under his arm waiting his
turn 20 see the president.
Defeat Teaches Humility.
The lame duck may have been
naughty and disposed to show his aver
sion to newspaper interviewers before
to proclaim that no president could die
tate to him in matters affecting his
duty to the people in matters of legis-
lation. But once he becomes a lame
duck, his plumage IS unruffed. He is
subdued and chastened until he seeks
only 10 know what the president de-
sires aud then he is ready to quack
response.
Poor lame duck, Washington is not
kind to them A political atmosphere
is one necessarily more or less charged
with sycophancy.
Sparrow Cop Important.
In tho administration of President
one example will illustrate:
Harrison Green b. Raum of Illinois.
commissioner of pensions, was figure
OF much prominence socially and polit--
ically. He was a man of distinguished
bearing aud attractive personality. AZ
ter General Harrison s term expired
General Rauu went to Chicago to prac-
tice law. In the administration Of
President Roosevelt he came to
Washington on visit. Pass
ing through the White House
grounds man who had known General
Raum at sight while he was in Office saw
a policeman demonstrating with a man
whose features suggested sonnet hing
strangely reminiscent, Suddenly rccog-
ming the face, the observer sought the
policeman TO inquire the occasion of
the admonition the officer had been Civ
ing.
''I suppose you did not know that
man was General Raumf' inquired the
observer.
"No, and more is don t know who
General Raum is, replied the sparrow
cop.
And the observer passed on rejecting
on the mutability Of things political
and official.
