Wilson Rebuke Says Trusts
Fail To Curb Tongue Of Labor
Representative

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-In the
face OF a warning of President Wilson
against questioning motives Of oppo-
nents of the immigration bill, ISecre-
tary Morrison, of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. this afternoon sug-
gested broadly In the White House
public hearing that Influences against
the bill are big corporations.
These corporations, he suggested,
induce immigration in order that they
may get cheap labor. Talk of need of
aliens to work United States farms, he
limited, Is bait to obtain employees
for the United States Steel corpora
ton, the big packing houses, and 9TH
er interests.
These great corporations" he said
want two men for every Job. That
means they will be able to get one OF
the two at very low wage, for hun
ger and distress will compel a man tc
accept wage below the American
standard.
I'VE are opposed to explorations Of
immigrants to swell the dividends Of
the United States Steel corporation
and the steamship companies"
