WANT EMPLOYEES EXAMINED.

Cleveland, O.-Trade unionists be-
lieve an effort will be made next year
to have the state Legislature pass laws
requiring physical examinations OF all
employees in this state. At the recent
state safety exposition, held in this city,
discussion centered around the need for
such examinations. At the last meet
ing OF the state federation OF labor,
held at Mansfield, President John Voll
warned organized workers that this
theory would be urged. The unionist
said workers are not opposed to exam
nations that will make possible greater
protection to life and limb, but the plar
of selecting only the physically fit for
every industry will be resisted.

man Against Child Labor Bill.

Asheville. n. C.-Provisions of the
Heating Child Labor Bill recently passed
by the Lower House of Congress were
attacked today by Hudson Miller. Secre-
tary of the Cotton Manufacturers As
sociation of North Carolina speaking
before the annual meeting here of the
National Child Labor Committee. Other
speakers defended the measure.
Miller declared such regulations as the
Keating bill would enforce should be left
to State governments, and objected par
ticularly to the features barring from
interstate commerce commodities pro-
duced by the labor of children working
more than eight hours a day. The South,
he said, was not ready for the eight-hour
day, because it has not the necessary
capital, and because with less skilled la
Dor and adverse freight rates. long
work day alone made it possible for the
Southern mills to compete with those of
New England
Among others who spoke before the
committee today were Commissioner of
Labor Ulrich of Iowa; Richard X. Co
nant, Secretary of Massachusetts, Child
Labor Committee; Douglas P. Falconer,
Secretary New Jersey Child Labor Com
mittee, and Mrs. Florence Kelley, Gen

tablishing standards of safety. The
state federation of labor recommended
three representatives, the California En-
ployers Federation three. and the Cas-
ualty Underwriters Association one.
These have met with the commission's
officials and rules for safety that in
clude all industries is the result.
The commission states that safety in

Burnett immigration
Restriction Bill
Reported Fauorably
Victims of Political and Religious Persecution Will Not
be Barred.

Washington.-Last Monday the house
committee on immigration reported IA
vorably the Burnett immigration bill, in
which is included the illteracy test
The bill is substantially the same as
was passed by the last congress and We
toed by President Wilson, but in this
instance the committee is more explicit
IN recommendations regarding the ad-
mission of those who seek to evade per-
secutlon because of religious or political
beliefs.
lhe committee reports that the fol-
lowing be exempted from the operation
of the illiteracy test:
"All aliens who shall prove to the sat
lsfactlon of the proper immigration Of
hcer or OF the secretary of labor that
they are seeking admission to the United
States to avoid religious persecution in
the country of their last permanent resi-
dence, whether such persecution be evi-
denced by overt acts or by laws, or
governmental regulations that discrimi-
nate against the alien or the race to
which he belongs because of his relg-
ious faith
Nothing in this act shall exclude, if
otherwise admissible, persons convicted,
or who admit the commission, or who
teach or advocate the commission, of
an offense purely political"
These exemptions clearly indicate that
there is no intention on the part of those
who favor American living standards to
have this country abandon its historic
mission of being haven for political
and religious refugees. Under the pro-
posed bill the political revolutionist, or
he who is oppressed because of spiritual
beliefs, is admitted, regardless of the
illiteracy test.
In their campaign for continued divi-
dends and cheap labor, steamship COM
panies and industrial combines have been
aided by thousands of sincere citizens
who honestly believed restriction bill
would close America to those seeking

MISSOURI RIVER.
CONTINUES con \ l S TO RISE
Ice Is Still Solid, However, and Is
Not Expected to Break
for Days.

Mandan, Feb. 24-According to the
United States weather bureau, the
Missouri river has not broken up,
and is solid all the way from Man
dan to Williston.
Reports that the Ice had broken
have been received from many
places. However, these reports are
occasioned by the fact that the ice
has been raised from five to ten feet
by water running underneath. AS
result the ice is broken from the
shore in many places, but the main
body Of ice is still solid.
The weather bureau received d tel
egram from Williston this morning
stating that the river has fallen
slightly. The ice was raised about
nine feet there in four days.
] Up Two Feet Here.
The Missouri river has raised two
feet here in the past twenty-four
hours, making total raise of seven
feet III the past two days. This is ac-
cording to the reports made by an
employee of the Northern Pacific,
who has been stationed at the river
to watch the rise and fall.
1t is expected that the main body
Of water which caused the nine-foot
rise at Williston will reach here
about Saturday morning.
