By DR.. CHARLES H. PARKHURST

TIME idea has been earnestly
cherished by great many
of our people that the Unit
ed States exists for a world
wide purpose; that our destiny
will not be accomplished by
merely becoming great nation
ourselves, except as that great
ness becomes an influence and an
inspiration telling upon all the
rest of the nations.
This ambition, which Is GER
tainly a laudable one, stands in
very distinct relation to the ques-
ton Of immigration, and to the
policy which, as a nation, we
ought to adopt relative to the in
PRODUCTION or the exclusion of the
foreign element.
Professor Fairchild. of Yale
University, has recently discuss
ed this question in a fashion that
is broad and statesmanly. Immi-
grafton Is one of our great ma
tional problems that need to be
solved in the light of considera-
tons that are CORRESPONDENCE
great.
The doors of admission to our
country ought not to be opened to
an applicant on the basis merely
of the money which he can show,
nor of his physical or intellectual
productiveness, nor of his ability
to meet the industrial demands of
any section of the country. Not
even his personal integrity and
adequate passport.

An Anticipated Rule.

An Anticipated Rule.
The Anticipated rule of unlimit-
ed parliamentary debate has rest
ed for a long while on the argu-
ment of precedent. The prece-
dents OF the world now, intellec-
tual and parliamentary, are all
against the folly and injustice of
1t. The presidents in each of the
New England States, in every
Atlantic State, in every Gulf
State, in every Pacific State. in
every Rocky Mountain State, in
every Mississippi Valley State,
and in every State bordering on
Carada are against unlimited de-
bate or the minority veto. What
Senator from any OF these States
will venture to say that the prece-
dents of his State are unsound,
unwise and clamoring for repeal?
The precedent of every munich
pal government, big and little, in
the United States is against the
right OF minority veto by inter
minable debate.
The House Of Representative
is against It.
The rule OF the majority is the
rule of all English-speaking par
liaments. Gladstone was its adj
vocate in England.
In France the cloture is moved
by one or more members crying
La cloture!" from the floor. In
Germany the majority rules, and
80 members can order the clo-
ture. In Austria Hungary mo-
tons for the close of the debate
are put to vote at once, without
question. by the president. II is

C1oture Vital in the Senate

~ is not, within our American
| House of Lords. a popular.
but it is an essentially vital
reform that finds its sponsor and
spokesman in Robert r. owen,
the dauntless Senator from Ok
lahoma.
For the last five years-since
the beginning OF the Taft Ad-
ministration-ther has been
gathering among the people an
increasing protest against the
enormous waste OF the peoples
time and the criminal delay of the
peoples business throughS the
present rules, customs and prece-
dents of the American Senate
This silent protest Is ready now
to align itself definitely and pow
erfuly behind public movement.
And Senator Owen has
preached in the Senate a brave
and timely sermon from the text,
THE MINORITY VETO IN THE
SENATE MUST END. THE OBJ
STRUCTION OF THE PUB
Lie BUSINESS MUST CEASE.
THE POWER OF A SENATOR
TO BLACKMAIL THE SENATE
MUST BE TERMINATED"
The text tersely summarizes a
great national evil. The three
abuses have had frequent and la
mentable demonstration. Senators
consuming three days in a single
speech, single Senators under the
rule Of courtesy or privilege hold
ing for days and weeks the vital
business OF the country in abey-
anec. and factional filibusters of
the minority thwarting or defeat
ing popular legislation altogether.
Ii Is, indeed, time to call halt
to such disastrous rules and such
unsanctihed traditions.

comprehensive resolution in the
last session. Ii will be vigorously
pressed in this Congress. 1t will

D. u. GAMES PROVE
TO Be BIG SUCCESS
Expectations of Committee Are
Surpassed in Meet at Hill
side Park.

Viewed from every angle, the ath-
letic games of the Catholic Young
Mems Diocesan Union, held Saturday
afternoon at Hillside Park, Belle
vile, were big success and surpassed
the expectations of the committee in
charge of the meet. Mayor Jacob
Haussling and many other notables
were on hand to root for the COM
petitors. Chief among the events on
the program were the one-mile run
and the 440-yard dash. Mike De-
vaney, the Irish-American A. c. fiier,
won the mile race from scratch for
the sBelleville Catholic Club, in the
exceptional time of minutes 35 2-5
seconds. Frank Lagay, jr., also rep
resenting the Belleville, went 44O
yards from scratch in so 2-5 seconds.
According to competent judges, La
gays time was good for under so
seconds on a good track. The three
mile handicap was taken by Charles
De Stephano, the Holy Family Ly-
ceum, Union Hill, runner, who
showed exceptional promise.
Willie Kelly, the Prudential athlete
won the half-mile handily, and added
five points to Belleville's score. The
two-mile novice was taken by III.
Smith, of Holy Family LYceum, ane
the 600-yards novice run was cap
tured by Edward Heine, of ST. Rose
of Lima w. P. Dunn, of the Belle
Vile Catholic Club, was first in the
century dash and third in the fur
long. The 220-yard dash was won
| by Thomas Brady, OF the 7. A. B. S
An easy victory was scored by the
Bloomfield relay team in the 1900
yard novice relay, and the one-mile
championship relay was won hands
down by the crack Belleville team
| consisting of Frank Lagay, jr.. vii.
lie Kelly, Charles Walsha and Bill
! Kraft.
Belleville Catholic Club took tbs
| point trophy, the club team rollins
up total of thirty-six points in tho
events. Holy Family Lyceum. d
Union Hill, was second on the tabl,
with nineteen points, while the T. A
B. S., of this city, finished in third
position with fifteen points. The wal
in which the meet was conducted
spoke volumes OF. praise for the com
mittee in charge, and the affair wa,
declared by all to be an unparellele,
success.

KRAMER SURPRISES
EVEN WISE MEM.
Victory in Five-Mile After De-
feat in HalfsMile Upsets
Dope.

Frank Kramer surprised all the
wise men" at the velodrome yester-
day afternoon, when he won the five-
mile professional championship event,
after suffering defeat in the half-mile
title event. The majority of the fans
came to the Velodrome yesterday, ex-
pecting to see Kramer win the half
mile and be beaten in the long dis
lance race. Even his most enthusi-
astic admirers were not overconfident
of his ability to win the short distance
race, for they knew that in Goullet
he would meet most formidable OPP
ponent. big Steve" upset all the
dope, though, for after being soundly
whipped In the half-mile, he came in
the final event of the afternoon
and riding superb race won the FIVE
mile championship and went back
into the lead for the national cham
pionship, after being ousted by Goul-
let earlier in the afternoon.
1t really seemed as though there
were two Kramers at the track, for

not the same cyclist that rode In the

During the running of the five-mile
championship event, Jack Neville was
not at all pleased with Bob Spears's
riding. Jack thought that Spears
was riding too close to Kramer and
called the referees attention to the
matter. Kramer was riding back of
Rutt at the time and Spears was
alongside of big Steve" Neville
seemed to think that it might be a
plot to keep Kramer boxed in. The
fans were watching the affair close.
ly, too, for when Spears did drop
back there was a distinct murmur OF
evident approval.
Frank Cavanagh and Gordon
Walker had a slight pushing match
during the race. Cavanagh thought
that Walker was interfering with him
and placed his hand on his shoulder
as if to push him over a bit. Walker
did not bulge, however, and did a
little pushing on his own hook.
Nothing came of the affair, though.

BUNDY MAY PLAY
WITH 'LOUGHL|N
Behr's Absence from Tennis
Practice Gives Rise to Story
of His Elimination.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-The absence
of Karl H. Behr from practice since
his defeat in the sectional doubles at
Chicago last week and the fact that
Maurice e. Mclaughlin and Thomas
c. Bundy have been practicing to-
gether, have led to the belief that
Behr will not be the champions
teammate against the Australasians
In the doubles for the Davis Cup
next Friday. While it was openly
stated yesterday by prominent tennis
authorities that Behr had been elimi-
mated from the American team, no
official confirmation was forthcoming.
In practice yesterday the teamwork
of the national champions was the
subject Of favorable comment. Play
ing against Norris Williams I'd and
Theodore r. Pell, they won one set
Sc and the second was sail when
play was stopped. The Australasians
| took a much-needed rest yesterday,
but will practice today.
Robert D. Wrenn has stated that
the reason for advancing the time of
starting the Davis Cup matches to 2
| o'clock had been because of the pos
sibility that long five set matches
would make 1t impossible to finish
before darkness. The first singles
match on Thursday afternoon will be-
gin at o'clock, but whether 1t will
bring Maurice e. Mclaughlin against
Norman E. Brookes or r. Norris
/ Williams, I'd, against Anthony F.
! Wilding may only be determined by
the draw on Wednesday evening.
A systematic plan is being devised
! to prevent, IL possible, the applause
to which the visiting players object.

frain from untimely applause will be
inserted in the programs, and the
| scorers will have large signs, please
Do Not Applaud" which they will
display whenever the spectators be-
come overenthusiastic. The foreign

American applause disconcert them.

BOSTON. Aug. 10.-The fact that
three members of the English Davis

tralasia at Longwood last week, left
Saturday on the Cunafd liner Fran.
coma for Queenstown and Liverpool
leaked out here yesterday. The party
consisted of J. c. Parke, A. II. Lowe

PLAN NOVELTYF
WOMEN GOLFERS
Entrants to Play Only Scotch
Foursomes in Tournament
at BaltusrOl.

Differing from anything that has
been attempted In this section of the
country will be foursome tourna-
ment for women over the links of the
Baltusrol Golf Club beginning We'd
nesday, September 8, and continuing
the remainder of the week. This will
Immediately precede the womens ma
tional championship over the links OF
the Nassau Country Club beginning
the Monday following.
The idea is to run off a tournament
in which Scotch foursomes only wig
be played Pairs will be arranged ac-
cording to the wishes and arrange
ments of the contestants, irrespective
of club affiliations, and the entire
field take part in a qualifying round
on the first day. Eight pairs will
qualify for match play and fight out
by way of the usual process of elimi-
nation, one round being carded for
each day. This will bring the final
on Saturday.
The tournament will be run off un-
der the auspices Of the Women's Met
,ropolitan Golf Association and it will
be open to all women golfers. Even
at this early date Mrs. ]. v. Hurd,
formerly Miss Dorothy Campbell.
erstwhile British and American
champion, has ssignified her intention
of being among the starters. The
time is suspicious in view of the fact
that the tournament will be held so
near the national meeting, and as
result a large entry of prominent
women from all parts of the country
is probable.
Despite the fact that Miss Cecil
Leitch, the woman's champion of
Great Britain, has gone on record as
h.. l.
lea this year, there are reasons to be-
lieve that if the war permits she will
be here in an attempt to emulate her
countrywoman, Miss Gladys Ravens
croft, who won the American title
last fall at Wilmington.
