Relations Of the Federal Council Of
the churches of Christ in America,
was in Washington last week. in the
interest of proposed legislation which
would allow equal immigration from
all the countries of any land.
This doctor is being financed by the
Federal council of churches Of Christ
in America, which organization in
cludes thirty Protestant denominations
and which has spent many thousands
Of dollars according to the Annual
Report) to bring about this legisla-
ton.
According to Doctor Gulick's plan,
the number of aliens whom we can
assimilate yearly. depends on the
number Of those already assimilated,
and he goes on to state that, Those
born abroad, who have, however, been
here long enough to learn our language
and our political life and to accept our
ideals are the ones to exert wholesome
influence on newcomers from their
own native people. They constitute
the natural channel by which the new
corners enter our life. The larger the
number Of naturalized citizens from
any particular foreign people, the larg-
er the number whom we can safely ad-
NIT from that people. This then is a
ratio-a matter of per cent; l suggest
5 per cent
According to this, a small number
would be admitted annually from
China and Japan; unrestricted immi-
grafton from Northern Europe, but the
number coming from Southern Europe
annually would be cut down. For in
stance-Catholic Italy would be al
lowed only 54,S50, instead of 1914
who actually land yearly on our shores.
Likewise, Catholic Austria, which av-
erages annually 178,SS2 immigrants,
would be reduced to $4,000.
DR.. Gulick is most anxious to obtain
the support of the Catholic church in
this proposed legislation, but it is
very doubtful If he will succeed, un-
less he adopts some other method.
This argument was presented before
the Senate Committee on immigration
and Naturalization, January 81, 1914,
and at their request was written out
in full and placed on record. Copies
were also presented to President Will
son and Secretary of State Bryan,
both of whom granted DR.. Gulick in
terviews on the subject.

WHAT THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
HAS DONE FOR MEXICO.

WHAT THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
HAS DONE FOR MEXICO.
1. She banished cannibalism and
paganism.
2. She overthrow idolatry and es-
tablished the Christian religion in it's
place.
3. She abolished polygamy and
taught the Indian races of Mexico and
western North America the sanctity
of the marriage relation.
4. She was the first in the New
World to establish for the native races
universities, colleges, schools, hospi-
tails, orphan asylums, Conservatives
of music and Industrial schools.
5. She improved the social and do
nestle life of the natives through the
training she gave them in agricultural
arts, industrial pursuits and the learn.
ing Of useful trades.
6. She made Mexico a center of
missionary effort for western North
America, sending her missionaries
among all the races occupying the
country extending from Behring strait
to the 1sthmus of Darien. Her efforts
extended as far east as the Missouri
river and Florida.
These facts are indisputable. They
might be emphasized and multiplied,
but lack Of space forbids. The church
in Mexico just now is drinking the
bitter cup of persecution to the dregs;
personal politics, anti-religious preju.
dice. socialistic violence and mob rule
are having their own way. but a
brighter day will dawn upon that mag.
nificent country, and justice will yet
be done to the people who at heart
are religious and who need only able
and righteous leadership to make
them prosperous and happy nation
