WILSON ON IMMIGRATION
Talks to Editors of Non English
Newspapers-Plans Tours.

Governor Wilson reached New York
shortly after four o'clock and went at
once 10 the Knickerbocker Apar' ments.
WHERE for half an hour he discussed
number OF future speaking dates with
Acting Chairman McAdoo.
Seventy-Ave editors OF newspapers
printed in foreign languages were wait
ing for him at the National Arts CLUB
when he got there at five o'clock. After
a rosy Introduction by Herman Bernstein
the novelist, Governor Wilson told the
editors the kind of immigration be ia
vored.
IF we can hit upon a standard" he
said, (which admits - >ry voluntary inn
migrant. and excludes those who have not
come of their own motion. with their
own purpose OF making a home and ca
reer for themselves. but have been in
duced by steamship companies or others
TO come in order 10 pay the passage
money. then we will have what We will
all agree upon as Americans. For ] am
not speaking TO you in a foreign country
II am speaking 10 you as Americans
with myself, and just as much Ameri-
cans as myself. and II we all take the
American point Of view. namely. that
We want American life kept 10 its stan
dards. and that only the standards OF
American life shall be the standards OF
restriction. then We are all upon COM
mon ground. not OF those who criticise
immigration, but q those who declare
themselves Americans.
81 am not saying that am wise enough
out of hand TO frame the legislation that
will meet this ideal. | am only saying
that that is the ideal. and that IL what
we ought 10 hold ourselves TO.
"Of course, IL the immigrants are 20 he
allowed :, come in unlnstructed hosts and
10 stop at the ports where they enter
and there TO compete In an oversuppied
dor market. there is going 20 be I'M
happiness. there Is going 10 be deteriora-
ton, there is going TO be everything that
will be detrimental 20 the community, as
we'll as detrimental TO the immigrant.
And therefore il is 10 the interest OF
the government that the government IL
self should supply, or AT any rate encoir-
age the Observation-Disclosures which will pre-
vent that very thing-will multiply the
ports Of entry for that purpose, for OK
ample. will ease and facilitate and guide
the process OF distribution. and viii.
above all things else, supply the sympa-
thetic information which is the only vel
come that is acceptable 10 those VINO
come"

Earlier in the day the colonel had issued
a statement I'm which he declared that he
had been both relieved and pleased at the
result In Vermont yesterday. The vote,
said the colonel. was gratifying. and he
expects 10 carry the Green Mountain State
In November.
While in Vermont | became convinced
that the Progressive party was strong
and was growing. and that We would In
all probability carry the state In Novcm-
Der for the National Progressive ticket,
explained the colonel. but | also became
convinced that there was danger OF a
complete breakdown 80 far as the state
ticket was concerned at this time. and
am relieved and pleased at the showing
that has been made.
There was but one disconcer,inS feature
OF the coloners busy day in insursent

Roosevelt electors In November, but the

not approve OF the idea of putting out a
