WILSON vETOEs BILL
PRESIDENT WITHHoLDS NPPRov-
AL OF IMMIGRATION MEASURE.
Declares Literacy Test and Restrlc-
lions Constitute Radical Change
in Nations Policy.

Washington, Jan. 30.-The immigra-
ton bill was vetoed on Thursday by
President Wilson in message to con-
gress in which he said:
In two particulars Of vital conse-
quence this bill embodies radical de-
parture from the traditional and long
established policy of this country,
policy in which our people have con-
ceived the very character of their gov
eminent to be expressed, the very mis-
sion and spirit of the nation in respect
of it's relations to the peoples of the
world outside their borders. 1t seeks
to all but close entirely the gates OF
asylums which always have been open
to those who could find nowhere else
the right and opportunity of constitu-
tional agitation for what they con-
ceived to be the natural and inaliena-
BILE rights Of man; and it excludes
those to whom the opportunit. of ele-
mentary education has been denied,
without regard to their character, their
purposes, or their natural ca
pacity.
Restrictions like these, adopted
earlier in our history as a nation,
would have very materially altered the
course and cooled the humane ardors
of our politics.
"The literacy test and the tests and
restrictions which accompany it con-
st4tute an even more radical chInge in
the policy of the nation. In this bill
it is proposed to turn away from tests
of character and of quality and impose
tests which exclude and restrict; for
the new tests here embodied are not
tests of quality or of character or of
personal fitness, but tests of oppor-
tunity.
IF the people of this country have
made up their minds to limit the num-
Der Of immigrants by arbitrary tests
and so reverse the policy of all the
generations of Americans that have
gone before them, it is their right to
do so. I am their servant and have
no license to stand in their way. But
do not believe that they have.
II have no pride of opinion in this
question. I am not foolish enough to
profess to know the wishes and ideals
of America better than the body of her
chosen representatives know them.
onlj want instructions direct from
those whose fortunes, with ours and
all mems, are involved"

Has Big Cotton Cargo.

Galveston, Feb. 2.-The steamship
Dacia departed at noon Sunday from
Galveston for Rotterdam with 11,000
bales of cotton to be transshipped to
Bremen.
The Dacia's cotton cargo is valued
by the shippers at $880,00O or 16 cents
pound laid down in Bremen.
The sailing of the Dacia is expected
to add another chapter to the inter

when the former Hamburg-American
line steamer was transferred from
German to American registry shortly
after the vessel was intefned at Port
Arthur, Tex, following the outbreak of
the European war Britain considers
the vessel contraband and has an
nounced that British warships will
seize her.

BRITISH SHIPS SUNK
FOUR STEAMERS ToRPEDoED BY
GERMAN SUBMARINES IN
IRISH SEA.
BIG OCEAN LINERS GUARDED
Persons. on Board Boats Forced to
Take to Small Craft, but Are Given
Time to Get BeIongings-AII Vessels
to Be Guarded by English Fleet.

London. Feb. -Four British mer.
chantmen, one of them the Ben Crua-
chen, have been torpedoed and sunk
by the German submarine U-21 off
Fleetwood, in the Irish sea. Their
crews, compelled to take to the boats,
were rescued by trawlers. One OF the
other steamers sunk was the Linda
Blanche. The British steamer Kill
coan and the Tokomaru were also re-
ported sunk.
A German submarine torpedoed and
sank the British steamer Kilcoan IL
miles northwest of Liverpool bar In
the Irish sea. A dispatch from Havre
tells of the sinking in the channel or
the British steamer Tokomaru, carry
ing food supplies to Belgium, from
mysterious explosion which is believed
here to have been caused by another
submarine. The crew of 81 men were
rescued by the trawler Hooper and
taken to Havre. where they were
landed
The steamer Graphic, reaching the
Mersey, reported that it had been
chased by a submarine, but owing to
superior speed it had managed to es-
cape. The passengers and crew were
panic stricken. Fortunately, however,
the Graphic was able to outsteam the
hostile craft, which gave up the chase
once the mouth of the Mersey was
reached.
The members of the crew Of the
Ben Cruachen were able to save only
a small portion of their belongings.
The Linda Blanche's complement were
more fortunate. They we're permitted
to get all their personal effects and
to carry them with them into the
boats.
The appearance of the hostile sub
marines off the west coast Of Eng
land came as surprise.
News of this latest drive by the Ger
man navy reaching London is accept
ed as meaning that from now on all
British shipping will be in extreme dan
ger. So serious is the situation con-
sidered that the admiralty has already
taken steps to guard all incoming
transatlantic liners.
It is admitted that the policy out
lined by Grand Admiral Won Tirpitz Of
the German navy of torpedoing and
sinking all Of the merchantmen of the
allies who attempt to bring foodstuffs
into the British isles was in no way
an idle threat.
Already the entire British flotilla Of
destroyers has been ordered out from
the various harbors all along the
coast. In addition the scout cruiser
fleet is searching for German subma-
rines. as it is realized that the U-21
can hardly be alone.

POULTRY CORNER
FOR THE BOYS
Poultry as a Business.
Rx j. Il. REED.


Are you going to wait until you
grow up before you go into bust
ness?)
That's long time to wait
Why not start now and learn now
while mistakes are not as fatal?
Get your father to let you take
care of the poultry this winter If
he is the right kind of a father he
will be only too glad to let you take
hold of the work. And then make a
business Of it.
First catch all those mongrel and
lonR-toe-nailed hens and give them
to the church supper for stew. They
don't lay any eggs They are only
loafers who eat up all the profits
which the good hens make for you.
No business man would keep a stock
of shoes that he couldn't sell at a
profit There is no more reason why
you should keep hens around the
place that don't pay.
Then fix the poultry house so that
1t is dry and clean. No business
man would keep his stock in a leaky
store. How much more important it
Is that your poultry be kept clean and
dry!

JOHN D. JR., IS lit
j. r. LAWSON CHARGES OIL
KINGS SON IGNORES ToILERs.
Official of United Mine Workers Says
Institution Seeks to Substitute
Philanthropy for Justice.

New York, Feb. Coming almost
straight from the Office of John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., where he had
/ friendly chat with him over condi-
tons in the mines of Colorado, John
r. Lawson, member of the executive
board of the United Mine Workers for
the district including Colorado, read
before the federal commission on In
dustrial relations on Friday scathing
indictment of Mr.. Rockefeller and the
attitude he had displayed before the
commission.
The policies and purposes of the
$100,000,O0) Rockefeller foundation
and the recent utterances of young Mr..
Rockefeller on the witness stand were
assailed by Mr.. Lawson.
In assailing the Rockefeller founda-
ton he asserted that one of the causes
of industrial discomfort was that very
philanthropy and the feeling that the
millions spread over the world in
snowy generosity" were derived from
the money withheld from the wages
of the American working class"
Mr.. Lawson criticized young Rookie
Teller for his lack of knowledge OF con-
ditions among employees of the Colo
RADIO Fuel company, and said he was
equally as ignorant and Indifferent
as his trusted executives"
Your body can well afford ia let the
testimony of John D. Rockefeller, Jr,
bring your investigation to an end"
Mr. Lawson told the commission.
"Out of his mouth came a reason
for every discomfort that agitates the
laboring class in the United States
today, and if remedies are provided
for the injustices that he disclosed a
long step will be taken away from in
dustrial disturbance"

Laredo, Tex, Feb. S.-General San
tibanez, former constitutionalist gen.
eral, who DETECTED to Zapata, exc
cuted Gen. Jesus Carranza, his son
Abelardo, and Ignacio Peraldi, both
members of Carranza's staff. The
widow of General Carranza received
word of her husbands death from the
first chief at Vera Cruz.
Mrs. Jesus Carranza, refugee here,
in announcing the death of her hus-
band said his brother, Gen. Venustiano
Carranza, first chief Of the Mexican
constitutionalists, had telegraphed her
he would send troops to recover the
bodies.
Gen. Jesus Carranza and his staff
were taken prisoners recently near
San Geronimo on the Isthmus of Te-
huantepec.
The father, mother, wife and other
members of General SantibaneZ's FAM
lily were recently reported captured in
the state of Jalapa and sent to Vera
Cruz, where constitutionalists said
they would hold them pending dispo-
sition of Jesus Carranza
The execution resulted in Venus
tiano Carranza's refusal to pardon
Santibanez and receive him again as
one Of his generals.
The order went forth from Vera
Cruz Immediately, however, for troops
to be rushed into Tehuantepec t. res
cue the captured general and his staff.
Apparently they arrived too late.
