IMMIGRATION TO
Be RESTRAINED BY
RIGID new Law
Aliens Must Register and Un-
dergo Period of Supervision
Before Becoming Citizens.
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Aug. Pa new
method of dealing with the incoming
alien problem Is embodied in bill
being prepared by the House Immigra-
ton Committee. 1t Is regarded as
the most drastic measure OF the kind
ever presented to congress.
Adoption of the bill would mean. Its
trainers say, literal fulfillment Of the
so-called "gentlemen's agreement" be-
tween the United States and Japan
with respect to immigration and would
keep out Japanese coolies.
Under the Root-Tokihara agree
ment, Japan Is obligated to send no
coolies to this country, but Is charged
the records disclose that they arrive
by the thousands. with passports as
merchants. students. and the like.
Once here 1t Is alleged, they remain,
send for picture Brides" raise fam1l-
les and their children become citizens
of the United States by right of birth.
Representative Albert Johnson, OF
Hoquiam, Wash, chairman OF the
House immigration Committee, in
charge Of the preparation of the Dill,
says the requirement that aliens lend
ing at American ports must have pass
ports with a time limit will break up
the great inflow Of foreigners. The
bill provides that aliens coming with
in exemption clauses of the present
law must obtain passports from their
own governments, vised by consular
agents of the United States, and limit
ed as to time.
Rigid Rule over Aliens.
But the bill does not stop there.
Aliens, who under present laws are
eligible to citizenship, would be per-
mitted to come to the United States
without passports providing they state
in writing their belief that they intend
to reside here and become citizens.
They must agree to register at least
once a year, failure to do so being a
cause for deportation. Failure to take
out first papers at the end of two
years residence, also is cause for de-
portation.
After taking out papers, aliens must
remain here five years for final citi-
zenship with a time allowance off for
knowledge of the elements Of the
American plan Of government and
proficiency in the English language.
If an alien does not require citizenship
in either years he is sent home.
The committee hopes to provide a
plan by which citizens of contiguous
territory, Canada and Mexico. may
visit the United States on cards is
sued annually.
Chairman Johnson is trying to have
congress send special committee
comprising Eastern and middle west
members to the Pacific coast to study
the Japanese situation.
I'VE want the East to study It," he
said.
Immigrants now come to the Unit
ed States freely and are required to
pass mental and physical tests" Chair
man Johnson said. explaining his bill
Many classes. such as lawyers, teach
ers, students. merchants and actors.
are exempted from these tests. There

Phone the Attendance Of Their

The Sunday School Attendance Sec
retary wishes to remind Sunday
School Superintendents, secretaries
and other workers of the importance
of telephoning their attendance on
Sunday afternoons. This has special
reference to the county schools. Only
very few take enough interest in the
matter to report their attendance.
Whether it is because of indifference
or not 1t would be hard to say. How
ever, as new quarter begins with

having their fall rallies, why not all
our schools begin the new quarter
right by phoning their attendance to
PIT Maysville between the hours OF
1880 and 6 p. m. Don't wait to be
, called; do the calling yourself. There
are a whole lot of folks interested in

SUICIDE THEORY
NOW BACKED BY
FINDING OF GUN
Barrel Of Shot Gun Is Found Near
Trunk Of Mr.. Tully Applegate's
Body in Ruins Of Home-Part
Of Coal OIL Stove Nearby.

The original theory Of officials that
MIR. Tully Applegate, whose burned
body was found in the ruins of his
home near Mt. Gilead Wednesday
night, set fire to his home and then
shot himself, seems backed by the To-
cation of the trunk of his body In the
house and the fact that the barrel Of
his shot gun was found nearby.
Mr.. Applegate's body was found in
a room adjoining the kitchen of the
house and by his siue was found the
barrel of his shot gun which he had
carried away from home late in the
afternoon and with which he had fired
at his two sons as they passed his
buggy In their automobile en- route to
Maysville near Orangeburg. One bar
rel Of the gun had been discharged
and the other trigger was cooked. The
gun was what Is known as brush
gun" and the barrel was very short
It is supposed that he pulled the trig.
ger as he was bending over the mouth
Of the gun and in this manner tool
his own life.
Near the place where the part o.
his body was found there was the re-
mains of coal oil stove and from the
manner in which his body and the
part of the house in which his body
was found, burned, 1t is supposed thai
he saturated the house as we'll as his
clothing with coal oil before he flret
the shot which took his life.

Big AUDIENCES
HEAR MORROW
AT WICKLIFFE
Great Crowds Hear Republican Nomt-
nee Speak in the First Congress
siOnal District.

Wickfield, KY, October 2.-Large
audiences, composed chiefly of Demo-
Gratis, greeted Edwin P. Morrow, Re-
publican nominee for governor, at four
points in the First Congressional Dis
trict.
Mr.. Morrow was heard here We'd
nesday night by an audiences that fill
ed the Ballard county courthouse to
oyerhowing, and was admitted by To-
cal Democrats to contain from 800 to
1000 persons. Crowds Of from 400 to
600 persons heard Mr.. Morrow this
morning at Hickman, Fulton county.
Mr.. Morrow's audiences would have
been still larger had it not been for
the fact that several automobile acci-
dents rendered him late at all of his
appointments Wednesday. Many per-
sons who wished to hear him left be-
fore his arrival, under the impression
that he would be unable to fill his en-
gagements.
Mr.. Morrow's speeches at Milburn
were not included in his itinery, but
an audience of so had assembled there,
and he did not wish to disappoint
them.
All four of the counties in which
Mr.. Morrow spoke Wednesday are
overwhelming Democratic, however.
his audiences received his speeches
with demonstrations of great enthus-
iasm. The splendid reception given
Mr.. Morrow by Democrats of this dis
trict, often called the Gibraltar of the
Kentucky Democracy, encourages Mr..
Morrow's supporters in this section in
a confidential belief that the normal
Democratic majority of this district,
about 1000, will be reduced at least
one third and possibly one-half.
