MODEST YANKEEPROvES

A Red Cross photographer at an

around for pictures which would in

set out to track down his man, who
had just disappeared In crowd OF

was successful. Have my picture

he produced the pictures, We'll

A TICKLISH PROBLEM

If the measure at Washington to
prohibit foreign immigration for
four years following the war be-
comes a law, watch Japan jump into
the air.
The country is full of experts" "
some of whom insist that there is
no danger whatever from immigra-
ton, and others Of whom insist that
the country is about to be deluged
and ruined by a great immigrant
wave, unless remedial legislation is
quickly adopted. There are those
who want to keep some immigrants
out, and those who want to keep
them all out, and those who want
to deport all resident aliens who
have not applied for citizenship, and
many other shades and varieties of
"antis." As for friends OF the immi-
grant, they are few and comparative
ly, silent.
The one sure thing is that out OF
all this discussion and emphatic in
sistence there is going to come a
more drastic regulation of immigra-
ton than we have had heretofore.
That is the only natural, logical
thing. The United States cannot az
ford to be made a dumping ground
for Europe's human wreckage, when
the war is over. 1t cannot afford tc
welcome the social and political dis
turbers to ply their menacing trade
here. And very emphatically, it can
not afford to countenance Bolshe
vism.

virtually monopolizing tho attention
OF the council. which has summoned
representatives OF New Zealand, Aus.

claims Samoa, Japan desires the

tween England and Japan givinl
japan the Islands north of the oqua

naturalization plans; but II Is gen
orally believed that all secret treaties
will give way before the League o
Nations. The impression seems t
be that the disposition of the Ger
man colonies will be finally arranged
by the five great powers without ref
erence to the peace conference at
plenary session or to the various
commissions.

A REAL ENIGMA

England is having strenuous
time in returning girls, who have
been earning from SIS to $40 per
week as war workers, back to their
old Jobs as domestics at SO and 81
per week. Many of the girls will
return to the old regime through
patriotic motives, but others will
feel, or imagine they feel, bitter
sense Of wrong, and may become a
menace to many an industry. About
the same conditions prevail in Amer
ica. II girls who do "house work.

would go far towards solving the
problem Of what to do with the gir
workers. In England, as in America
the "hired girl" has never received
her just dues. She has had to cook
wash dishes, scrub and attend to th'
"kids"-known to her mistress al
"the little angels"-for a mere pit

in the opinion of Mr.. La Flesche, is
the reason he was defeated by the
white man. The Indian held the
white man east of the Mississippi for
two centuries. He would be holding
him there yet, and the advance Of
civilization would have been delayed
for centuries, if the Indians hagl been
able to combine under one leader, Mr.
La Flesche thinks. He does not re
gret the defeat OF the Indian, how.
