Demand for Unskilled Labor.

In a symposium on Immigration at
yesterday afternoons session Of section
VII the conclusion was reached that
Americas Unsuitable demand for unskilled
labor is responsible for the dumping into
this country of a class of immigrants
drawn from the lowest social strata of
the nations of Europe. 1t was further
shown that the immigrants now reaching
this country do not assimilate with Amer
leans but remain to themselves because
of the all-around inferiority exhibited by
them. Methods for distributing lmm1-
grants to agricultural sections and pre-
vention OF the prevalent herding OF these
"undesirables'' also formed part of the
general discussion.
Hundreds of the visiting delegates. as
well as throngs of Westinghouse, went
to the speedway and Potomac Park late

plane and hydroaeroplane fights. which
had been specially arranged for the en-
tertainment OF the delegates. The eX-

Unnatural Barriers.

Col. Roosevelt gave several examples of
the way in which he said artificial politi-
cal barriers placed the south in an I'M
canal was of particular interest to the
ratification OF the treaty with Panama
came from southern senator's, on account
of their political affiliations.
He referred to the Mississippi floods,
saying that. although a democratic House
of Representatives had been in session
for five months after the flood. no move
had been made to prevent a repetition or
the disaster. He said he favored utiliza-
ton OF the Panama canal plant for
great project of Improvement of the wa
terways of the Mississippi valley. which
would prevent floods as well as serving
many other purposes The action of the
democrats In the House in voting for
abolition Of the tariff on sugar was cited
by Col. Roosevelt as another example of
what he meant. He said the democratic
party stood for free entry of sugar, which
would compel the great majority OF sugar
cane and beet growers to go out Of BUSH
ness, whereas the progressives were op-
posed both to excessive protection and to
lowering the tariff to a point which would
harm producers.

matters" he continued. then you ought
