women of Chicago and the wom-

debt Of gratitude they owe to Will

Editor The Georgian:
Have we really any reason to
believe that there is much sub
stantial difference between primi-
tive cannibalism of savagery and
that Of our so-called civilization
of the twentieth century?
How can we differenate, from
a philanthPopic standpoint at
least, the two stages of society,
when one group or nation Of peo-
pie whose forefathers (foreigneFs)
shed blood and struggled contin-
uously to secure them the liberty
and advantages they now pos
sess. are now themselves making
an effort to deprive and exclude
worthy, honest and capable men
and women from the Eastern
Hemisphere to our own shore?
Does not the Constitution of
the United States and the Dec
laration Of Independence stare us
in the face? Do these valuable
documents mean anything to us
at all. or should we throw them
in the waste basket and ignore
the lofty, principles upon which
our republic has been built?
This Burnett BILL" now pend
ing in Congress at Washington,
has for its ultimate object the
amendment of the immigration
laws, with view Of restricting
immigration to such an extent as
practically to mean the closing OF
the gates of the "land of the free"
in the faces of those who seek our
country as g. shelter from relig-
ious and political persecution.
This bill, row pending, is rep
etition OF similar attempt,
which met with failure in the
past. And there is no doubt
that the same negative results
will occur this time, If only the
people wake up and intelligently
comprehend the true issues in
volved in such proposals in Con-
gress and the destructive and
detrimental influences that may
result to all the people Of our
land, II such bills were really
passed.
The passage OF the Burnett bill
would not only be reflection on
our nation, but a menace to the
human race in general. Any in
dorsement or favorable influence
for such bill is repulsive.
James Russell Lowell once said
"They are slaves who dare not
speak for the humble and the
weak. They are slaves who dare
not be among the right of two
and three" If we should be
passive and inert to this vital and
humane problem, then we are
towards.
The literary test" and also the
new physical test" would ex-
clude thousands of good people
from our country.
Do we realize how few Ameri-
cans would be able to stand the
physical test themselves? And is
it not ridiculous to measure hu-
man worth, standard and ability
by his aratomic structures?
Suppose a man is one inch
shorter than the required height
or the expansion and contraction
of his chest is aone-half an inch
less, but otherwise we'll, should he
be sent back? Suppose men like
Mr.. Burnett we've physically and
nterarily disqualified. but pos
sessed plenty of money, do you
think they would be excluded
from our country?
Just because economic deter
minism" has put thousands Of
people in Europe among the hum
BILE, weak and lowly. and de-
prived them of an equal oppor-
tunity to learn how to read. write
and study, is no sane reason why
we civilized people Of the United
States, living in the modern. en-
lghtened twentieth century,
Atlanta Georgian., 1914-02-21
The immigration Problem

Snouid ignore the poor lmml-
grants appeal and cry for help
so that he may begin life over
with new determination, new en-
couragement and with new hopes
Why not give them their hu-
man rights? Why not give them
such opportunity as We would
want ourselves? If we deprive
them of such a chance, which is
the only one for them, we are rob
bing them of "true life" Can we
call that q Christian deed? Can
we call it human or cannibalism
in modern form.
The foreign element has helped
materially to make cur country
what it really is to-day. Give him
a chance in college. and as a rule
he is at the head of his class.
Give him a chance on the farm,
and he win not only be success
full, but may produce more than
formerly. And why not send
many to the agricultural districts,
where there is an indication and
demand for their presence?
Some of our most prominent
musicians, painters, artists, ply
sicians and lawyers are foreign
ers, and a number of them were
il1terate when they landed here.
Many of them will never be able
to pass an ''army physical test,
but have helped others, physical
ly, mentally, psychologically and
otherwise.
If these men of learning would
have been excluded from our
country, the chances are that they
would to-day be considered among
the lowest strata of society" in
the old continents. Then why not
give the honest poor man a
chance to make good?
Some labor organizations seem
to be prejudiced, and favor the
passage of the Burnett bill. They
believe that the immigrant will
compete with his brother worker
on the labor market for a job
They forget that more people
need more necessities of life, such
as food, clothing and shelter;
hence more workers are needed
for the production thereof
Give him a chance to become
union man, and nine times out OF
ten he viii be among the most
energetic and leading members OF
his union. 1t is also true that the
most powerful and best organized
and most progressive labor or
ganizations to-day are those in
which there are the largest mem
bers of foreign workers. So TO
be fair-where could organized
labor Loser
The very head OF the American
Federation of Labor is q foreign
er. It is not logical, believe, to
conclude that foreigners will do
harm to the working class In
this country. If the A. F. of /.
would understand itself better 1t
would rank among the first or
CARNATIONS to oppose the pass
ing of the Burnett bill.
What did our forefathers In the
American Revolution fight for?
believe that the true American spif-
IT Of justice and human brother
hood still prevails.

The Woman's National Press Asso-
ctation-foster mother Of press clubs
in general
Long before Washington news
papermen had organized their Ma
tionai Press Club. with its mem
bership that represents every nook
and Granny Of this country and
some foreign lands as well. even
before the Gridiron Club, widely
known for its clever travest!es On
public men and measures, had been
conceived, the women writers OF
Washington had formed a Woman's
National Press Association.
This organization was born I'm 1882.
1t was the third woman's club to be
organized In the District. having
been preceded only by the ". c. 7.
U. and the Washington City Kinder
garten Club. Older than the Ma
tional Federation of Women's Clubs,
II took part In the meeting at PhiIa-
delphia which led to the formation of
the federation. and II was a prime
mover in the Organization o. a Dis
trict of Columbia federation. OF
which II still is leading member.
The association Is national, for II
has members in nearly every State
In the Union, and on its rolls also
are members from England and from
the Philippine islands.
Mrs. Briggs First President.
Under the auspices Of this associa-
ton the International Press Union
was organized. 1t is a member Of
the international League of Press
Clubs.
The association always has been
strict In enforcing the rule that all
members must be actively engaged
In writing, as authors, editors, IL
Illustrators. magazine contributors or
reviewers. Its early rolls included
some of the pioneer women in the
American newspaper field.
Its first president was Mrs. Emily
Edison Briggs. the first woman
Journalist allowed admission to the
press galleries OF Congress. Mrs
Briggs became widely known as a
political writer under the pen name
of OLIVIA" Another president was
Mrs. Martha d. Lincoln. one OF the
most prolific newspaper writer's or
her day. Under the pseudonym IF
Bessie Beech" she contributed both
prose and verse to many papers
throughout the country. when syn
dioates were yet an unknown guam
tity in newspaper making.
