COMMISSIONER FEARS
IMMIGRANT LOSSES
Foreigners Not Treated Justly and May
Leave, Howe De
clares.

NEW YORK. Nov O-The United
States may become an "emigrant
rather than an immigrant nation at
the close of the war, predicts Commits
sioner of immigration Frederick {
Howe. He bases his belief upon the
ground that the immigrant is not being
treated justly In an address last night
ne took the stand that immigration was
purely an economic question. lie said
that those who opposed immigration did
so because they desired TO limit the
competition OF unskillcd foreign Ia
borers; those who favored the wide,
open door, did so because It made la
Dor cheaper
The immigrant no longer went to the
