PALMER SEEKS
BAR ON ALIENS
Congressional Report Will Ask
Tightening Of immigration
and Deportation Laws.

Demand for speedy passage Of
anti-Red legislation. more drastic in
character than previously proposed,
will he the high spot in the forth
coming annual report TO Congress
Of Attorney General Palmer, De-
partment Of Justice officials said
today.
The Attorney General views the
tide of immigration sweeping In frow
Europe as menacing because OF tn:
lack OF restrictions in present law
against undesirable characters, they
added. Palmer has just completed a
careful study OF the situation. both
as II relates TO immigrants and to
aliens already in the United States.
He has indicated that he will ask
Congress to act without delay TO
check the inflow of certain types that
he contends are most dangerous TO
the country's safety.
Other legislation will be sought by
Palmer making IL easier to deport
aliens of criminal tendencies, and the
laws, he will urge, should also pro-
vide for stricter examination OF those
who seek permission abroad to en-
bark for America. He holds that u
more careful study must be made OF
the credentials and character of all
such prospective residents.
According to department heads, il
lis not expected that Palmer will at.
tempt to have Congress take away
the present powers exercised by the
Department OF Labor. in matters OF
deportation. but he will endeavor TO
have these powers more clearly de-
fined. He contends that under pres
ent statutes, too much discretion Is
left to administrative officers OF the
Department OF Labor. and this offers
a loophole for defeating the intent
of Congress by legal contests.
Palmer will not make public his
specific recommendations until time
for submission of the report to Con-
gress.

DIPLOMATS
Envied for Their Liquor
Privileges, But Cellars
Are Going Dry.
SENDING OUT S. o. s.
Legation Servants Given
Many Favors-Near
Cache, You Know.

Diplomats stationed in Washing
ton have many friends. II the orders
they have been sending in for
liquor form any criterion.
Warning is also seen that the
booze caches in Washington en-
bassics and legations are in a state
OF depletion due to the many en-
tertainments that have been in
progress here in recent months.
Most of the liquor now being used
in Washington, especially the wines
is being imported from Europe.
The former receiving port for
liquors was New York, but since
the Treasury Department and the
Department of State got into a
wrangle over searching diplomats
baggage, II has been thought best
to have the liquor sent to Balti-
more, whence 1t Is an easy truck
drive to the back door of the en-
bassy or legation here.
One recent order from a Wash
ington legation to n London wine
merchant called for wines to the
extent OF more than $4,00O-and
liquor is selling "over there" much
cheaper than SIS a quart, the pre-.
vailing price In Washington.
While the society folks arc cul-
tivating the better acquaintance or
the members of the diplomatic
force, the household servants also
are receiving favors from some of
the small tradesmen Of the city.
There is hardly a butler in any
embassy or legation that would not
be welcome to their circle. and many
servants are said to be getting
much larger rebates on the goods
they buy for the household than
they did when liquor was to be had
at the corner saloon here.
And the chauffeurs-oh,b boy,
There is not an embassy chauffeu,
who has to pay for any OF the it'll,
attentions at the garage that he
formerly paid for himself. If any,
thing goes wrong with his engine.
a score of less fortunate chauf-
feurs are always willing to lend a
hand or produce set OF tools.
and the helpers around the garage
are always looking out for the in.
tcrests OF the envied driver and the
care of the car.
The Washington times., 1920-11-25

Another reason for giving thanks
is the fact that beginning today
there set in a four-day' period Of va
cation during which children who in
tend entering The Washington Times
$500 contest may write as many es-
says as they desire to send in. With

every school boy and girl in Wash
ington should not write and send in
at least half a dozen essays on this
timely and important subject
CAN BE REPORTER.
One Of the distinct advantages Of
this four-day holiday period Is that
on two Of the days--tomorrow and
Saturday. the prospective essayists

business houses with their parents
and acquire all the first-hand infor-
nation they need on the inducements
for doing the Yuletide buying well
in advance of Christmas week.
The winning of any of the thir-
teen prizes offered in this contest will
insure n merry Christmas for the for
tunate essayist. The first prize Is
$50. the second is $50, the third Is
500 and there are ten consolation
prizes consisting of orders for $40
worth Of merchandise.
100 WORD LIMIT.
A minimum of time, ingenuity and
effort is required to win THESE SUD,
stantial prizes. All that Is required
is that the essayists set forth In 100
words or less the best reasons for
doing the Christmas shopping early.
II the best reasons can be expressed
in less than 100 words. 30 much the
better Essays containing fewer
than 100 words will be eligible for
the contest, but essays containing
more than 100 will be disqualified
The rules Of the contest are as sim
pie as it was possible to make them.
The essayists must write their Names
ages. and schools they attend on the
first sheet Of their entry. They must
write on only one side of the paper
and mail the essay to the Shop Early
Editor Of The Washington Times.
The contest closes at midnight, De-
cember I, next Wednesday night
Early Thursday morning the thou-
sands Of essays received by the Shop
Early Editor will be turned over to
the judges who will select the best
thirteen and award the prizes to the
writer's.
SPEEDY PRIZE AWARDS.
The prizes will be given to the
winners as soon as possible after the
Judges have announced their decis-
ions so that the youthful essayists
may follow their own preachment
and do their Christmas shopping
early.
The winning essays and such others
as The Washington Times may deem
worthy Of use, will be published and
should prove a powerful stimulus to
the shop early movement.
There are only six more days In
