CHANGE SUGGESTED
 FOR HIGHLAND AVE.
Lieut.. Dabney Suggests
 Mortimer Jordan BOule- vard'' in Honor of Hero

Lieut. Malcolm Dabney would cnanSe the name of Highland avenue to Mortimer Jordan boulevard.
 He offered this suggestion before the Rotary club yesterday noon, and again last night before the allied armies at the Tutwiler dinner
 The Rotary club, acting unofficiahy' seconded the motion of Lieutenant Dap- ney. The officer announces that ne would endeavor to interest all other CIVIC organizations, and then present the case to the city commission.
 q do not think naming Behren's park in honor of the late Captain Jordan an honor sufficiently great. Captain Jordan was known and loved by every soldier from Alabama who served across the seas.
 'The boys returning bring the name of Mort Jordan in their minds and hearts, and what sensations of delight would De theirs were they to step upon the Morti : ner Jordan boulevard to share the Joyfui reception that Birmingham is planning for them.
 Let the name Highland avenue be changedp'

He said his bill will be offered as soon
 as Congress conyenes in extra session and
 that strong pressure should be brought
 with the idea of having the bill enacted
 al the earliest possible moment. He mem
 toned that the duty of enacting the
 measure will fall upon the republican ma-
 iority with the assistance or democraes
 who have favored restrictive measures
 against immigration in the past. Accord
 ing to his statement, he has been assured
 that a majority of the republicans "h''
 will ba on the house committee on lapor and immigration will favor the bill ana
 will support it soon after it is offered.
 More drastic measures than the hte-- acy test. already law, are necessary said Congressman Burnett. After the peace treaty is signed, the bars Will De down again unless America puts them I'D. Foreigners were coming to this coun- try at the rate of one million year De- fore the war began. They Will come again at a heavy rate. 1t has been sai'' that the good foreigners will not come to America after the was That is true. The good ones will not come, but the pad ones will. Those who will wish to avoio the duty and responsibility of aiding Ill the reconstruction of their own countries will be the ones we will have to contend with, and they are the ones we do not want"
 MT. Burnett recounted the many fights in Congress before the literacy test pli' was passed over the Presidents veto. Tie said this bill required every foreigner coming to this country to be able to reao and write his own or another language, but that even this was not sufiicieht " a' this time. We must have law now which will practically close the doors of immigrat ton until the world is composed he continued. "The bill now proposeo will close the doors for four years to all except those fleeing from religious perse- cution. I believe America will become composed before the end of four years but 1t will take four years and longer

exercises will be held after the trans port carrying the regiment docks.
 Governor Miller is anxious that all citizens of Alabama who can do so go to New York.
 MORE THE BETTER"
 While those who will go will show them, beyond doubt, that Alabama appreciates what they have done for us and the nation," said Governor Mil Ter, "the greater the number in the delegation the greater will be the show ing and the more convinced will the soldiers be that this state is truly grateful In arranging the exercises of greeting the fact will be kept in mind that many in the party have boys in the regiment whom they have not seer since late in 1917, and time will ht given them for their personal greet. ing"

This Is the reason there is need for an exclusion bill now. Our own soldiers should have the posi- tions which have been held by these for eigners and which would be taken by other foreigners should De Wiling to let them enter"
 MT. Burnett furnished proof to show that foreigners, especially Italians, had kept Americans out of positions because they were willing to work for less money. and declared that draft records show that there were 750,0Oo men of draft age in America who were exempt rom mill tary service because they made deciara- tions that they were aliens, many having their first papers cancelled in order that they might be classed as aliens. When treaties were made whereby these aliens were required to return to their own coun- tries for military service or serve in the American army, the war ended with hun- dreds of thousands of American msh across the waters fighting for Europear nations while thousands of Europeans held their old positions in America
