AUTHORIZES TALKS
ON Immigration
Book of Self-Made Men Smells
of Storage, Says
Mary Antin.

Americans speak of self-made
men, and rightly so, but il book of
our self-made men was written it
would smell strongly of the steerage. .
Thus spoke Mary Antin, the au-
thoress, in the course of her lecture
on THE Whole Gospel of Irnfnigra-
ton before members of the Unity
Church, Montclair, last night.
Independence, she said, was to
be taken seriously and in the spirit
of the fathers who declared that all
men were born equal and had the
same right to liberty and happiness.
then there could be no restriction on
immigration. Perhaps our forefathers
did not realize that the nations of
the earth would be knocking at our
doors for admission TO pursue that
happiness which they expressed
Neither did Moses when he issued tbs
Ten Commandments to the Jews realize
that they would be slaughtered by
hundreds and thousands and hel
down to the lowest depths because
they chose only to acknowledge ono
God and keep his laws. Yet the Jews
kept the faith
The Declaration of independence
Is not to held as a fine-written docu-
ment to put in a frame and only to
Nc ptOuSuJ Out OH patriotic OCCASIONS,
but should be held as law by which
we should be guided. IL the theory
that all men are created equal Is
established, then the theory of immi-
grafton is settled.
Democracy did not have it's be-
ginning in this country; the very
phraseology of the Declaration of In
dependence could be found in the say
ings of men seeking independence In
Europe long before it was written.
We had chance to increase democ-
racy and mature 1t because our gov
eminent acknowledged 1t.
People now say immigration is not
what it used to be. Nothing seems
Just as 1t used to be, even the
weather. Let us compare the early
immigrants of the early days with
those of today. Those that came
over in the Mayflower were idealsts;
they left their own country because
of religion. The Jewish immigrants
of today are also ideafists and come
to our shores because of religion and
because Russia holds them In slavery
on account of their religion"
The speaker was born at PolotZk,
Russie-, in 1881, and emigrated to
this country in 1894. She was edu-
Gated in the Girls Latin School, Bos-
ton, and Barnard College. She has
written several books, among them
THE Promised Land" dealing with
a little Russian girl immigrant and
her life in America.

Storekeeper Victimizea

An old short-change trick was exc
cuted at a bakery located at 292 Main
street, Orange, Saturday afternoon.
A young man, Of whom Miss Cum
mings has given the police a descrip-
ton, entered the store, rendered a
ten dollar bill in payment for a five
cent loaf of bread and getting the
1896 change, suddenly found dime
lac had not previously located in his
pocket. He then offered the silver
piece and asked for his ten-dollar bill
He handed back bills and money and
quickly departed. A moment later
Miss Cummings found he had re-
turned but $2.95, and the police were
sent for. The fellow and supposed
confederate, however. had disap-
Feared when they arrived.

POLICE COURT TOO
CRAMPED, He SAYS
Recorder Mott, of East Orange,
Seeks More Room and Bet
ter Equipment.

Larger police court facilities I'm
East Orange are an imperative need,
Recorder Francis \. Mott, ir., of that
city, says in his annual report, which
was forwarded today TO Mayor Julian
4. Gregory. That his contention is
correct is admitted by those familiar
with the number of cases attended to
daily in the small room. The con-
dition of the furniture in the court is
termed unsatisfactory by the magis-
trate. and he recommends the pur-
chase of better and additional equip
ment.
Need of room for consultation
purposes is emphasized by Recorder
Mott, and he laments the embawass-
1nent that persons are subjected to
because of their inability to speak TO
the MAGISTRATE privately during court
hours. He urges a room where war
rants and complaints can be drawn,
explaining the reason for this as
obviclS.
From the fact that nearly 500 cases
were considered during 1918 can be
CLEANED an idea of the necessity for
additional facilities, he says. 1t is
not an infrequent occurrence for the
room to be packed almost TO sufoca-
ton during the arraignment of pris-
oers and the taking of testimony in
important cases.
If the additional facilities cannot De
provided in the present building some
ARRANGEMENT may have to be made 10
have the criminal cases disposed OF
in the City Council chamber in the
City Hall. which is in use only two
DAYS a week when the District Court
sessions are held.
The exact number of cases handled
in the small room during 1913 was I'll.
OF this 172 were of criminal char
acter, 271 for disorderly conduct, 80
violations of motor vehicle acts, IL
violations of paroles, 124 violations OF
general ordinances, Is cruelty to ami
mails cases, violations OF compul-
sorry education acts, 3S traffic ordln-
ance violations, | excise law violation
and 80 miscellaneous cases.

Park Commission Did Seek
Vacation of kearny Street

That the Hudson County Park
Commission has requested tina
Kearny Town Council to vacate
Chestnut street between Wood and
avenue and Dukes street, Kearny, so
that the section of the thoroughfare
in question might be converted into
part of the new West Hudson Park,
has been stated by members of the
board. An attempt made Saturday
by a Newark evening newspaper to
give the impression the request had
never been made by the park au-
thorities has been branded as a mis-
statement of facts.
William }. Davis, of Harrison, who
is president of the Hudson County
Park Board, declared yesterday a
communication regarding the vaca-
ton of the street had not only been
sent to the council, but map show
ing just what the commission pro-
posed to do was also filed. Following
the receipt of the map and. communt-
cation, members of the council con-
ferred with the park board, and ac-
cording to Mr.. Davis, promised to
communicate later with the board.
Mr. Davis declares that has never been
done.
The Star last week printed exclusive
stories to the effect that citizens of
the town had taken the matter In
hand and were circulating petitions
wherein the council is to be requested
to close this section of Chestnut
street to vehicular traffic, "as re-
quested by the park board Tho
petitions, 1t is said, are being freely
signed.
During the incumbency of Louis M.
Brock as Mayor, the park board dio
little or no work in the matter OF
identifying park property located In
I<earny. All of the Harrison section
of the park has been put in fine shape
II Is understood the commission will
now take up the work of improving
the Kearny end of the Park. Brock
has been succeeded as Mayor by Rob-
ert T.. Torrance.

Freed from Peniteutiary

Fond anticipations of soon being at
liberty which were. entertained by
