Valuable Material-If Used.

Police Commissioner Waldo is considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of recommending to the Secretary of
Labor that the Ellis Island authorities register
the finger prints Of all immigrants and collect
other data valuable from police point Of view.
Inspector Faurot, the Bertillon man at Headquar-
ters and other police officials believe this material
would be great help in tracing and identifying
aliens who turn criminals.
Undoubtedly such records would be very valuable
to the police if they used and used with brains.
The history Of the Police Departments treatment
of the valuable Petrosino Black Hand list so called,
is not especially encouraging that llne however.
That list, containing information about scores Of
Italian criminals whose records would make them
subject to deportation, was "lost" in some manner
as yet unexplained, and only turned up in some OBJ
scure corner Of Headquarters when the time for de-
portaton of the aliens listed had expired The value
of thing depends largely on the way in which 1t is
used. 1t would be worse than foolish If the immi-
grafton agents were required to amass data which
would accumulate undisturbed on the Police Depart
ment files.

PRAISE FOR JUDGE FOSTER
His Experience and Mental Equip
ment Call for His Re election.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: AS a great journal Of great city
you are respectfully asked II there has
not been grave mistake made by the
fuslonists In not renominating the Hon.
Warren w. Foster TO succeed himsei as
Judge OF the Court OF General Sessions
court OF criminal Jurisdiction?
Judge Foster has served fourteen years
I'm that court. Seven years once consti-
tuted a sufficient apprenticeship PERIOD
for the most cryptic vocation, but Judge
Foster has served twice that time. HIS
large experience. CLEANED during that
period, should not be lost to the public.
To lose IL now by failing to vote for him
would be like farmer firing his orchard
while his trees are rich with ripe and rare
fruit which his industry and patience
have brought into blossom. Judge Fos-
ter's experience Is too precious to lose.
When we purchase we seek the best
our money will procure. When we employ
man in a private capacity we seek the
one who is best developed In the line or
his employment. Why practise different
rule in the selection Of public servants?
Judge Foster has been favored by nature
with that mental breadth which includes
not only wide knowledge Of human nat
ure. OF law and penology, but also SYM
pathy with humanity in It's temptations
and suferings. His long experience and
good sense enable him to properly temper
Justice with mercy especially with first
offenders), with no loss TO society, but
ofttimes, through the redemption OF the
criminal. with great benefit TO II. He Is
unfettered by either racial or denomina-
tIonal provincialism. lie has no causidical
bias and his whole career as man and
as a judge portrays him as pre-eminently
1T TO succeed himself, as well as fearless
and independent.

An Interesting Remark.

In his speech at Philadelphia on Saturday ME-
Wilson made some very sensible remarks about the
undue isolation which President suffers wnen
cramped I'D in Washington, surrounded by people
who are there to ask for things and whose selfin-
terested views are usually out OF touch with those
Of their neighbors who stay at home and have moth
ing personal TO ask for Most people Will sympa-
tbize with him in his satisfaction that from the
White House windows he can look out toward the
