IMMIGRATION PROBLEMS.

Among the many ~far-reaching er-
fects of the present European war,
the influence exerted on immigration
assumes a prominent place. The end
Of the last fiscal var saw a total OF
1,4S5,957 added to our population
from this source. The influx of imml,
grafton proceeded at the normal rate
until it was given a sudden check by
the declaration of war in August,
when the average daily landing or
5000 or more at Ellis Island became
'Darely tnat many a week. he
seems to be a general agreement that
the cessation of the war will see a
renewal of the flood of immigrants
which will surpass anything hereto
fore experienced. The country is
alert to this possibility, and prepara>
tons to meet the expected increase
are already in evidence. The propos,
ed changes in our immigration laws
will, if enacted, enforce more rigiG
physical ret uirements than any pre-,
vious legislation on this subject.
There is no doubt that the country
needs these added safeguards. The
truth OF this statement is tOrcDDly
illustrated by that section of the re-
port of the Committee on Inquiry in
to the Department of Health, Chair,
ties, and Bellevue and Allied Hospl-
tails of New York City, which deals
with aliens in institutions. The com.
mittee examined, as far as practica>

inclusive. OF the 3,4o4 ADMISSIONS
during that period, 1863 were aliens
who had been in the United States
less than five years. The physicians
who examined these aliens believed
that there were lS5 of them suffering
from diseases caused by conditions
which existed prior to ,andlng in the

Committee BILL
WAS INTRODUCED
Changes Game and Fish Laws tc
Satisfaction of Sportsmen.

The game and fish committee or
the house has introduced a new game
bill, No. 300, to amend and re-enact
the former anne laws. About hall the
old law is retained without change.
In a number OF sections slight cnans~
es have been mada in the wording,
and a number of new sections lave
been inserted.
Among the new provisions Of the
game laws, if the bill goes through,
will he. the establishment OF a game
farm and provisions for the propaga'
ton and distribution of additional
game birds in this state. Preference
will be given by the game officials to
a wider distribution CT rutted grouse
or partridge and experiments will be
made in quail, pheasants and other
birds.
The new bill also provides for the
establishment OF game refugees. These
are to be purely voluntary and under
land and water aDirds and deer may
all be p%ropagated and protected under
The new measure.
Require Citizenship.
Another important measure suS-
gested is the enactment; OF a law to
prevent those who are not citizens
or have not applied for citizenship
from varying or having in their pos
session shotguns or rifles. This law
has been upheld by the supreme court
Of the United States and will make
it impossible for the transient labor
gangs on railways to continue their
ruthless destruction of game and all
bird life. There is nothing in the
section to interfere with legitimate
settlers who are citizens or who have
applied for citizenship.
Unde4 the new bill the board is to
be given wider jurisdiction over beav.
er, which are reported to be doing
damage in many localities.
Additional Licenses.
The new bill provides for licenses
for fishing, trapping and for probes
siOlal dog trainers, in addition to the
hunting licenses.
Sections provide penalties for alter
atoms or misrepresentation of Ii
censes, impersonating game wardens
and other features.
Shortens Seasons.
The new bill slightly shortens up
the seasons for shooting prairie
chickens, ducks and geese, and ex.
tends the protection Of deer until the
fall of 1920, at the request of the
settlers in the deer regions of the
state, who claim the closed season OF
the last two years has been highly
beneficial. ,
There are many other amendatory
features to make the law more easily
operative and effective, but nothing
of a radical nature. The bill is bull;
UP by the joint session of both the
HOUSE. and the senate committees,
with the members of the game and
fish board and other sportsmen OF the
state. 1t will undoubtedly take the
place of all the bills that have beer
previously introduced and it is ex-
pected the committee bill will be gen
orally satisfactory to the members OF
the legislature and the sportsmen OF
the state.
A number of kilograms, letters anG
resolutions have been sent the mem
bers of the legislature endorsing the
recommendations made by the game
board and urging their enactment by
the legislature.
