THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION

What will congress do about the
immigration situation? E. :
This is a question that is being
aked everywhere in the United States
today, because of the vital need of
some kind Of legislation to stem the
flow Of foreigners to this country for
a period of, time, until at least the
country gets back on pre-war basis,
and factories and mills operating nor
mally, wages back to normal and liv-
ing conditions back to the old level.
The present system of allowing i'm
migrants to enter the United States
is entirely inadequate, looking at it
from an Americans stand point of
view. More drastic rules should be
made to apply to foreigners qualifi-
cations before being permitted to en-
ter this country. Four strict tests
should be made which should include:
First-Physical. Many foreigners
are admitted under the present loose
immigration laws that are Of poor
physique. An examination approx
mating that of the army should be de-
manded of every foreigner attempting
to enter.
OoCOuu-MeuLdl. 1cSCS SllOQ1u US
made to decide each ones mental abil-
ity. Under the present system many
mentally defective persons are allow
ed to enter.
Third-Criminal Record. Many for
eigners with criminal records are now
allowed to drift into this country, in
creasing the. crime wave. Foreign
records of such persons should be in
vestigated before they are allowed to
enter.
Four - Foreign Inspection. The
stricter the tests, the greater need
of close inspection nearer home. By
close examination of foreigners before
they leave their home, many who
were inadmissable could be rejected
and a great deal of hardship avoided
These are only few of the rules
which congress might pass. A bill
is now pending before it to completely
cut off all immigration for a period
of two years. If this bill passes, when
the period of time is up, if such laws
were put into effect as mentioned
above, big percent Of our immigra.

MILD WEATHER
SAVES FEED

That the remarkably mild and open
winter will prove of much help to
farmers in the feeding Of their live
stock, was the opinion expressed by
one farmer yesterday. He told the
Times-Record he began feeding his
stock early in October last year, and
was forced to continue it long into
April. Up to the present time, no
great amount of feeding has been
done, the stock picking up much Of

A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT

The difference between saying "you
can't have your money" and saying
"you shouldn't draw out all your
money at this time" is the difference
between an insolvent bank and SOL
vent one; the difference between bad
banking and good banking.
When the Bank of North Dakota
says "you will not be permitted to
withdraw funds from this bank unless
we choose to let you" it establishes a
most dangerous precedent in banking
If, on top of that decision, the Bank of
North Dakota continues to withdraw
redeposits from banks throughout the
state while refusing to pay warrants
from county treasurers, it will be a
most vicious and deliberate attempt to
wreck numerous private banks in the
state.
If such an attempt is made by the
Bank of North Dakota, there is but
one course to pursue. Warrants from
the county treasurer drawn against
the funds in the Bank of North Dako-
ia should be sent to pay the call made
by the state bank. If for example, the
Bank of North Dakota has on deposit
100000 of the funds of certain
county, and has redeposited $4,000 in
the banks Of that county, and if it
should call on these banks for the
funds deposited with them, they should
try to procure from the county treas
urer a warrant for that amount drawn
against the state bank, and send this
warrant in the state bank in lieu of
cash. That would be a very simple
and effective solution, and would re-
quire the transfer of no actual money.

"A homeless pull pup finds home

A regular reader of the morning pa
per could hardly believe this were
possible.-Fargo Blade.
BY vote of 96 per cent OF the ,peo-
ple of Greece Constantine has been
recalled to the throne. Yet Great Brl-
tain, France and Italy are telling the
people of Greece that if they allow
their king to resume buiness they will
crush the life out of that country by
withholding trade and credit from
Greece. We had an idea that when we
sent our American boys overseas to
fight for that very catchy phrase "the
worlds democracy" that it meant
something. We seem to be laborlng
nnder a mistake if the attitude of the
three big powers means anything.
We sent several million men into
foreign countries to fight for the
worlds freedom from oppression and
autocracy to help out England, France
and other nations of the world fight
for the freedom of the smaller nations
of the world. Now we have the spec
tacle of trying our darndest to keep
one of the biggest nations of the
whole lot-England, through its Can
adian provinces-from flooding the
United States with thugs and whlskey
runners. Then our statesmen get up
in congress and on the rostrum ask
US to join these countries in league
of nations. What for. To help per-
petuate crime or strife? That is
about the only thing we can see VIII
be the outcome OF any League WIN
these nations. Canada is pouring
her whiskey and criminals over the
border by the thousands, dumping her
free wheat, cattle and other farm pro-
ducts into this country at the expense
of the American people and now we
are asked to join hands in a league OF
nations to perpetuate these things.
Let US keep out Of it.

NIGHT IN HONOLULU
IS COMING SATURDAY

In "A Night in Honolnlu." which
comes to the Oregon Theatre next
Saturday July II, the native Hawaiian
singers and musicians will be found
to occupy a great deal of the specta-
tors attention. Hawaiian music by the
gifted native singers and players has
been great success In America be-
cause it is different. The wistful
beauty of the music seems to carry the
American audience across the Pacific
to the Island Paradise. The melodious
strains of their quaint songs and the
accompaniment on native instruments
is plaintive and fascinating. Mark
Twain after his first visit to the
Hawaiian Islands, said in an interview:
The Music of the Hawaiians. the most
fascinating in the world, is still in my
ears and haunts me sleeping and
walking, L can still hear the pulsing of
the surf at Waikailxi, see the plumy
palms browsing by the shore. the gar
landed craigs and the leaping cascades
and this music fiIlssme with the spirit
of its woodland solitudes." M

Similar conditions exist today
