Washington, Oct. 2S.-War's con

a tremendous increase in the sale OF
foodstuffs for foreign armies and
marked slump in expectation Of cot
ton. machinery and materials for use
in manufacturing-wa shown in de.
tail yesterday by statistics compiled
by the Department OF Commerce.
Exports OF grains and meats jumped
to practically unprecedented quanti-
ties in September. resulting in great
improvement over August's trade. and
a substantial export balance. but the
decrease in the sale abroad of cotton
and manufactures resulted in a loss
compared with September. 1918. Of
SCI 1922, ,e6s.
The gain for September's exports
over those for the first month of the
war was s45.96s,219.
That represented in part the vast
demand imposed on American gran
aries and packing houses to feed some
OF the armies and livestock in the war
zone.
Supplemental figures obtained at
the department showed that exporta-
tions of canned beef jumped from 1884,
69S pounds in September. 1913. to q
SS5.S5 last month. More than 1884,
400 pounds of fresh meat were shipped
abroad last month. compared with
6S4.52S in September. 1913.
Barley exports jumped from 25l.454
bushels in September. 1918, to 2,7s1.-
2S6 last month; oats from 3lS,92S to
10.IS0,165; wheat from 11.971,l63 to
25,S69. lO6. while rice exports increased
from l,4S6.995 pounds to 1O.443.sl7.
The slump in exports of cotton dur
ing September compared with last
year amounted to nearly 100000
A remarkable improvement in the
exports to some Latin-American coun-
tries was shown over the first month
of the war. Trade to Germany re-
mained at a standstill; to Russia and
Belgium at low ebb. but that to the
United Kingdom was fairly well main

New York. March A.-"Nighthavks"
are not the only birds for which the
lights Of New York's great white way
have an attraction. The recent cold
spell caused many sparrows and pigeons
to take refuge on the huge electric
signs along Broadway. the great num-
Der Of bulbs making the air appreciably
warmer.
The birds were discovered by the en-
ployes Of the electric light companies
who were sent to investigate the rea-
son for the dimness of many of the
signs. They found that the birds had
clustered all about the lights. On MANY
bulbs birds slumbered peacefully, and in
some cases wording of the signs was
made almost illegible. Moot of the bird,
which sought t. warm themselves on
the bulbs. were sparrows and pigeons. A
porter from one Of the leading Broadway
hotels discovered four sea gulls nesting
in the sign above the hotel. The electric
light men estimate that the heat from
the bulbs. though small In amount, has
been sufficient to save the lives Of thou

New Immigration Policy.
Fresh from twenty-six years of life in
Japan, Prof. Sidney l.. Gulick has pro-
posed a new immigration policy for the
United States. His suggestion has al
ready been laid before the, Senate, has
also been put in the hands OF President
Wilson and Viscount Chinda, Amba assador
from Japan, at their request He has
recently lectured in Washington on his
plans under. auspices of the Federal
Council of Churches.
Prof. Gulick, in The Surveys March
magazine issue, explains his policy. He
was the first exponent of the principle
of regulating the influx of immigration
according to the rate of its assimilation.
This proposal is that the annual inflow.
from any country be limited to a per-
centage-not of those already in this
country-but of those who have become
naturalized, and their American-born
children.
He contends that all differential Asiatic
treatment must be abandoned. and points
out that the danger of an overwhelming
Oriental immigration can be obviated by
this percentage plan. He says:
Applied to Germany this per cent
rate would admit as many as 4O5, 600 i'm
