GOMPERS POINTS DUTY
TO NEW IMMIGRANTS
Delivers Talk at Ellis Island
Sunday Concert.

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation OF Labor. was the
principal speaker at the sixteenth of
Commissioner Frederick A. Wallis's Sun
day concerts at Ellis Island yesterday.
To the immigrants who are about to en-
ter this country. he said with consider
able emphasis:
Bear In mind that the streets OF
America are Tot strewn with gold; that
IN the United States you must perform
your share OF the work OF America, and
that success comes with endeavor and
striving. Beware OF this. fellow working
men and women. that If you have come
here with honest purpose to enter into
the heart and soul of America, you must
perform in your way your duty to your
selves and to your fellow workmen.
''If you have come here for mere ex-
ploitation. you. ought TO have remained
In your home countries. If you have
come here for the purpose of being well
welded into the life Of this composite
nation, you must take your places in
factory, workshop and NINE"
To that portion Of the audience which
he designated as "citizens" he pointed
out the need for attention to Industrial
centres which report that they cannot
absorb more immigrants.
Before Mr.. Gompers spoke, a number
of Hippodrome artists, including Mar
celine. the clown. presented dozen diff
ferent acts for the enjoyment of the
immigrants and guests. DR.. Howard
Duffield opened the concert with prayer.
Scripture was read in Yiddish by He
brew stowaway. Gen. c. Herbert De
Fosse spoke and Nine. Augusta Lenska
sang.

Scotland is being told In familiar lam

The VETS similarly stress the hor-
ror OF having nothing to comfort them
through cold winter nights. the loss Of
revenue and the substitution of drugs
for liquor, &C., despite the fact that
the vote on November cannot inter-
fere with the making. the distribution
or the drinking OF liquor except
through the saloons. Also the argu-
ment was used that while the "drys"

the London Times. Everybody wishes
to see the amount of drunkenness re-
duced Granted, as is demonstrable.
that society as a whole has grown
steadily more sober for the last CEN

Is that the women voters are solid for

Under the system of voting It will mean
the elimination Of the saloons by ward

contests between resorts.

OF the votes are not cast for this, the

Therefore. 1t is practically certain that
there will be a general reduction in the

that many will be entirely wiped out.

Increase In Drinking.

IncrenSc IN Dr1nklnE.
1t is stated that whereas in sixteen
weeks of 1918 and 1919 the convictions
for drunkenness in Glasgow were re-
spectively:
19lS-1,296 men and 1853 women.
1919-1076 men and 1853 women.
These totals have suddenly lea ped to:
1920-6O77 men and 1.343 women.
1t is. of course, easy to suggest ex-
plantations of this increase in drinking.
in causes which are notorious. espe-
ciallv the return of the demobilized
armies after the war and the i'm
mensely augmented spending power OF
the working classes; and it is the mer-
est accident that the first poll to be
held under n nine-year-old law should
happen to fall at this moment. None
the less, the facts are unplca SAINT.
Whether the reduction OF licenses in
the ways prescribed by the present
temperance act is the right way to
tackle the problem is another question.
The anti-license campaign is being
conducted frankly as campaign for
prohibition. Liquor must got" is it's
watchword. 1t must go in behalf of the
children. "There are about 4 million of
us i'm Scotland. We ask you to make
Scotland safe for us by voting NO liz
home and the women. Home 1t is
woman's kingdom. Safeguard itv
Rise IN. We women that be at ease ="
The Scottish churches mot including
the Episcopal or Roman Catholic
churches, which are uncommitted) are,
II is claimed. united in favor Of NO
License" Liquor Is wasteful of money.
"ccotlands drink bill for 1919 was f36.-
100000, or $50 per head of the adult
population" 1t is wasteful OF the eff
cheney Of people. Both physical and
mental work is helped where liquor finds
no place" Each of the foregoing quo
tations is from different poster or
leaiet of the National Citizens Council.
On the other side the Anti-Prohibition
Council declares that II is as anxious for
temperance as anybody I'VE would
welcome cooperation with the real tenn
perance reformers in framing wise laws
which, while preserving the liberty OF
the people. would promote temperance"
They put forward a constructive pro-
gramme as a basis for such laws. in.
Guiding the Improvement OF public
fouses. various provisions for the regu-
lation of licenses, reasonable hours of
opening and closing and drastic punish
ment for habitual drunkenness. The
present campaign. II is said, is not a
campaign to promote temperance but an
effort to saddle Scotland with prohibit
ton, which would bring in its train evils
worse than IL aims to abolish. IL is de-
MED that the churches are in favor OF
"No License" and. az matter OF fact,
not a few ministers of standing appear
on the anti-prohibition platforms.
