PLAN FOR TEMPORARY.
ADMISSION OF CHINESE

Washington, Dec. II. Especial
correspondence)-As result of the
labor shortage particularly in agri-
cultural districts and the agitation
against Japanese immigration on the
Pacific coast, there has grown up a
very extensive demand for a restrict
ed plan for Chinese immigration.
When the subject is. first suggested
to people who have not given it con-
sideration the project often arouses
immediate opposition, but when the
details of the, plan are explained
many take a>more favorable view. .
The plan is to enact general law
which will admit what is commonly
known as '"coolie" labor when appli-
cation is made for such admission by
an American citizen who offers en-
ployment for the persons to be adj
mitted. Such applications would be
subject to approval by state official
and also by national authorities. ORR
entails thus admitted would be requir-
ed to return to their native country
not later than five years from the
time of immigration. While in the
United States they would be requir-
ed to carry at all times their cards
of Identification showing their right
to be in the United States.
The theory of this plan is that it
would afford farmers a source of la
/ Dor supply at a wage which they
could afford to pay and character
of, labor which is willing to do the
class of farm work which it is diff
cult to employ white persons to per-
form. It is also argued that the
thousands of Chinese who would be
admitted for period of five years
would become educated to the ways
of Americans and would carry back
to China knowledge of the superior
methods pursued in American agri-
culture. They would also acquire
many customs of Americans, includ-
! ing the use of American clothing and
machinery Following their return
to China there would be developed
in that country larger market for
American goods.
In answer to the suggestion that
the admission of Chinese coolies
would arouse a protest on the part
of Japan, on the ground of discrim-
nation, attention is called to the fact
that under the law establishing this
plan, admission of Qrientals would be
open to Japanese and Chinese alike,
but only On the application of an Am.
erican citizen. Since American citi.
zens would desire the Chinese but
would not desire the: Japanese; there
would be practically no applications
for the admission Of Japs. The Japs
could not contend that they were dis
eliminated against by the laws of the
United States. ,'i..i -.
One of the greatest difficulties
farmers have is in securing labor TO-
work which requires constant stoop
ing. such as picking berries, wedding
gardens, etc. White labor is yer,

George Trevor, father of his fiancee,
"you shall have the money tomor-'

Yale expects to keep his solemn
promise only in one way-by ending
his life. This he has decided upon

see his sweetheart for the last time.
He finds her father desperate over

Trevor asks Yale to lend him $780,

much disinclined to engage in such
employment and the necessity Tor
work of that kind is largely respon-
sible for the exodus of white labor
from the farms. 1t is also asserted
that the coolies thus imported would
not become a serious competitor with
American labor as the Chinese never
becomes a skilled laborer, does not
desire to acquire ownership Of land
in the United States, and invariably
contemplates returning to his native
land. It is one of the features OF
the religion of the Chinese that even
after his death his bones must be re-
turned to China. The Chinese, there:
fore, would not constitute the menace
which che Japanese have proven to
be, particularly under plan OF ad-
mission which insured return to Chi
ma at the end Of five-year period.

TOWNER SEES PASSAGE
OF EDUCATION BILL

Washington, Dec. 11.-(By Capt.
tai News Seryice)-Representative
Horace Mann Towner of Iowa, joint
author with Senator Smith Of Georgia
Of the Smith Towner bill for the crea-.
ton of a<department Of education,
with the head member of the pres
ident's cabinet, stated on his return
to Washington he felt encouraged
more than ever over the prospects for
favorable action at the short session
of congress, said he would hardly go
so far as to predict this, although
hearings would be held in both the
house and senate committees in
charge of educational matters, and
consideration pushed vigorously.
Judge Towner, continuing, said
the sentiment back of the department
of education bill had taken on such
formidable proportions as to justify
hope of favorable action on it during
the short session, but that, due to ap-
preparation measures, particularly,
which must be given first attention,
passage of the bill might not come
until after March a. As to ultimate
favorable action, however, Judge
Towner said he was not in doubt.
In discussing the influences back
ofthe measure, he pointed to the
great interest being shown by women,
individually as we'll as in organi4a-
tions of large membership and wide
influence. He was much interested
in suggestions being made in the press
that in the event of the passage of
the measure a woman would be
named by President Harding as its
head. In any event, plans are in
the making for consideration of the
measure on the floors of congress at
the earliest possible moment, said
Judge Towner. H.
Comment by newspaper correspon.
dents recently has been to the effect
