American labor unions have found TINS

AS for its direct influence on industry

at the same time necessitating the en-
ployment of increased numbers of fore
men. The conclusion of greatest eco
nomic significance reached by the COM
mission is that "the point OF complete
saturation has already been reached III
the employment of recent immigrants IN
mining and manufacturing establish
ments."
This "saturatiOn." this oversupply of
immigrant labor. is not found in the
Western states. where. consequently, the
problem assumes a different aspect.
There is no danger there. at present at
least, of tendency toward reduced
standard of living. though there, too,
cheap competition i'm the labor market
by MeXicans and japanese is not un-
known, with. however, the ultimate aim
Of a monopoly of the labor supply and a
consequent forced rise of wages far
above the normal rate. This has been
done. for instance. by the Japanese on
the fruit farms at harvest time. On the
Coast the exclusion of Oriental races
continues to be an imperative necessity,
since their influx would prevent the
migration from the East Of white immi-
grants, even the most backward of
whom are more easily assimilable than
are these Asiatics.

review the full scope of this book, which

heartily recommended also TO the men Of

The outlook is sufficiently serious

essays one Of the War Of independence,
and succeeds fully as well. So far as
his plot is concerned, the historical
period and place might as well be any

does not affect the decidedly satisfactory

A GREAT LETTER WRITER
From The Manchester Guardian.

The late Lord Salisbury was in the
habit Of writing letters even at times
when the person addressed was within
few minutes call He disliked con-
versations, and never gave an interview
If letter could possibly convey his
wishes TO the person with whom he had
TO deal. Mr.. Winston Churchill tells us
that in a single day his father would
receive as many as three long letters
from Lord Salisbury. written perhaps
from an office only a hundred yards
away. and each carefully explaining his
precise views. In the seven months Of
the first Salisbury ministry the Prime
Minister sent Lord Randolph 40 letters
though the latter's office was close at
hand and though Lord Salisbury met his
Junior constantly in Cabinet councils.
