The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-01-23

Representatives Raker and Johnson
of Washington, and other Western
congressman planned to have all the
Pacific coast exclusion societies,
labor and commercial organizations
join in the fight against admitting the
yellow races.
The pending immigration restric-
ton bill proposes to prohibit entry to
Asiatic laborers except those exempt
ed by present or future laws and
treaties. The Raker bill would go
further by naming the Japanese,
Chinese and Hindu particularly, and
repeal any laws or treaties which
would admit any of them as at pres
ent. Witnesses. from San Francisco,
Portland, Ore, Seattle and other
coast cities are expected to testify.

in that way, it sounds very simple
too simple. But the truth is that
neither of these injunctions is easy
to follow. Of course, in the first
place, we haven't any opinion at all
as to our BIRTH. But we have a
great deal of choice as to the parent
age of OUR CHILDREN.
1.-THE future of the race betterment
movement, then-and the parentage
of the superman-rests at bottom
with each one of US INDIVIDUALLY.
Young people should have enough
social conscience to marry into
strong, clean, intelligent families.
Then they should live very sim
ply-which they don't. We have, each
one of us, many little 'indulgences'-
which are really excuses. And in the
aggregate they make a pretty con-
siderable force of destructive habits.
They poison US, make our lives short
Grand injure our race as WE'LL My
great age unquestionably is due to
the fact that l observed both these
things.
But race betterment demands aid
from organized society," as well as
from each individual. First, society
must prevent the birth of defective
and undesirable types which drag our
civilization into the mire with their
crime Secondly, society must tend
to the care and cure of those defec-
tives who have already been born.
81 am sure that when Americans
will cooperate in the eugenic move
ment we will soon evolve a race of
men who will live to be 100 years of
which his physical structure
shows is mans natural longevity"
