motion by Representative SABBATH
OF Illinois, to eliminate the proposed
test pending when the House adjourned
Saturday night was the immediate
business under consideration.
Gulick Suggests Plan.
vi Rev. Sidney L.. Gulick. lecturer
at the Imperial University of Japan,
discussed immigration today with the
president.
Under arrangements made by the
federal council Of the churches of
christ In America which includes SO
protestant denomination, the Rev. Mr..
Gulick has been visiting leading cities
suggesting a new immigration policy.
He suggested to the president his plans
TO treat all nations on a basis Of equal
tty, "renouncing all invidious legisla-
ton and deferential treatment" by al
lowing only a maximum annual i'm
migration OF nationalities by a fixed
percentage of those already here and
naturalized.
His suggestion is that by a rate of S
per cent and under. that 405,00O Ger
mans could be admitted. although only
27,7SS came in 1912; 1863. 500 English,
Italian immigrants would be reduced
from 157,134 who came in 1912 to a
possible maximum of 1850.
The same rate would admit ONLY 900
japanese and 1888 Chinese immigrants.
The Rev. Mr.. Gulick believes that by
making character and education the
qualifications for citizenship and by the
percentage rate, the interests Of Amer
lea and Asia and of California and
Japan would be served and harmonized
with dignity.
MIR. Wilson's Views.
Secretary Of Labor Wilson, informed
congress today that he was not OPP
posed to the principle of the literacy
test. He recommend making the immi-
grafton bill more drastic in several par
ttculars, especially in regard to white
slavery n that skilled laborers i'm
ported under contract as well as UNI
skilled laborers be barred.
Provisions to bar aliens who have
committed a crime or niisdemeanor in
yvyir nr0
yicted or not, and to deport aliens com
hitting crimes in this country, also

that of the total &c per cent would be
barred by a literacy test.

Toul and Yerdun By Gertrude B. MuIl'u'
SsuAApDDN1o41u4.44A4NH4444


 Tou and Yerdun now forms the ends of the line of combat on the east and both may sec the reverse swing of the pendulum which gave them into German rule. Foul is q city of long history, and was for years the seat of bishopric. During tho middle ages 1t enjoyed the rank of a Free City and was taken by Henry II of France as the result of the treachery of Maurice who suddenly left the service of the Emperor in the efforts of the religious and political combination of 1851 and marched against Charles ", who was taken un- awares in the Tyrolese Alps and de- feated at Innsbruck.
 The city was formally annexed to France in 164S. Then in 1870 1t was beseiged by the Germans and capitu- lated in September.
 Toul is one of the chief strategic polnts on the eastern frontier of France, directly west of Nancy. The city boasts many fine examples of renaissance architecture which are still quite perfect, perhaps the most important of which Is the famous church of the twin towers. St. Etienne,
 verdun and Chalons, the one on the Mouse and the other on the Marne, arc the two forts which form the end of France's long line of parallel forts of defense. AR a city verdun is an other example of the fiueness of Vau- bans work, it's history beginning in the tenth century when 1t passed in' to the hands of the Germans, Like Toul, it was made an Imperial free city and occupied by Henry II in 1851.
 With its territory, the city of Yer dun was annexed to France in 164S. in the same acquisition which included Toul, and during the year 1792 was held for short time by the Prussians in conflict with Napoleon.
 Verdun is the home of the famed 'verdun Confectionaire" which has made an enviable appeal to the sweet tooth of the world.
 It was at verdun that the sons of Louis Le Debonnaire made the famous treaty of that name, which confirmed Lothaire as Emperor in S43, Through this compact Lothaire received Italy and the region lying in general west of the Rhine and Alps and east of the Rhone. Saone, Mouse and schelde, the very territory in which today's conflict centers. At the time of the treaty of verdun, Ludwig was consoled with the territory between the Rhine and the Elbe, the nucleus of the pres ent German Empire, and Charles the paiu was gwen the region west of Lothaire's dominians, grant which now covers the nucleus of France. Bryce, in his Holy Roman Empire. makes an interesting comment on this Treaty of Verdun which gives one a glimpse of German policy. He writes "On the death of Louis the Plus, his sons flew to arms, and the first of the dynastic quarrels of modern Eur. ope was fought on the field of Fonten- dy. In the partition Treaty of Verdun which followed. the Teutonic principle of equal division among heirs tri- umphed over the Roman one of the transmission of an indivisible empire"
