The immigration
Stream
BY Frederic J. Haskin

Washi ngton. ID. c., Nov african
Negr oes made up about seven times Ms
large part of the st roam of immigrants
that flowed into Anne RIGA during the fiscal
year of 1910 AS they did in 1913 Mexi-
cans tired Of revolution swellod tho pro-
portion of their race in tho stream TO
about lS times what it WAS before the
war
These striking facts, IL should be re-
monbcred, are based on proportional
figures. Tho total immigration in 1913
was over million, while in the fiscal
year of 1919 it was only about i40, 900
In other words, we We're then receiving
nearly eight times as many immigrants
rs we did during 1919 But il is the pro
portional change of the various races
that is significant.
Many scientists regard the question of
race rs the one of paramount Importance
In the effect that immigration has on the
future of the country. Politicians, ON the
other hand, uniformly dodge the raco
issue because of its delcacy. Only on
the Pacific Coast, whore Japanese Inn
migration has become q burning issue, ls
any attempt made 10 face he racial factor,
Ii is interesting to note that nearly rs
many Japanese entered the United States
in 1919 rs in 1913 which means that they
were about nine times rs large percent
age of the total immigration last year rs
they were before the war
Certainly racial snobhishness is not 10
be- tolerated The theory Of the essential
superiority Of the blonde races over the
dark ones for example, has boon vigorous
" upheld by some authropologlsts. but
it has now fallen INTO disropute. 1t IS
generally recognized that the dark Medi-
terrancan people for example, have cor
tam racial traits which the blonde Nordic
strain lacks Likewise, the usefulness Of
any given man to his adopted country
docs not depend primarily OH his race. \
Negro may become n valuable citizen and
. Swedc may be rogue But Il cannot be
denied that a Thousand extra Swedos are

groos. It Is hard to contemplate with
cquanimity delugc Of Negroes Nlcxicans
and Japanese Vet that Is what we have
been receiving during the year 1919
GREAT CHANGES
The whole make up of the immigra-
ton stream has been radically altered As
is generally we'll known, American i'm

Englishmen, Wclshmcn, lrlshmcn. Ger

SAVING DEL AWARE CRIPPLES.
An Effort Being Made TO Preserve State
Man Power.

The act which provides Tor the reha-
bilitation Of persons disabled IN industry
passed before the adjournment Of the
Sixty-sixth Congress. insures aid 70 al
who have become disabled in the indus
tries. The States are now engaged IN map
ping out definite policy with regard u
the rehabilitation OF the lndustriAllv dis
abled and Governor Townsend OF Della
ware has approved the measure, thus IN
suring this training 70 those who may have
become disabled IN this state. As soon as
the necessary machinery has been Great
ed il will be no longer necessary for GRIP
pies 70 depend upon public charity or sell
pencils on the street. The cripple VIII now
receive q square deal as he has never be-
fore. because his rehabilitation will be
accomplished by the Governmental the
state and the Federal.
The average individual who does not
think in terms Of industrial conditions
does not realize that there Is going on n
this country war far more deadly than
many a political one-a war not Of
men and guns. but OF men and industrial
machinery: g war not TO destroy, but 70
build. The industries report annually ire
mendous losses. and during the nineteen
months Of our participation in war there
were reported 20 ,000killed IN the industries
as against AZ 900 on the battlehelds of
France during the same period. The war
has produced over 200 900 disabled men
ranging from a negble and minor temper
arv disability TO q major permanent dls2-
blitv resulting inthe loss Of an arm, leg
or an eve. Contrast this number with the
3, 600, 900 accidents year in this country,
an average Of 10000 per day It Is difficult
t. realize that there are so many people
injured in this country, number equal 70
twelve times the population OF the State
Of Delaware.
Ever casualty on the battlefield has It's
parallel IN the industry A soldier had
lost q leg as a result Of sharpnel explo-
sion while the industrial worker, walking
along q dark passage IN the works, might
step on an upturned nail, resulting III
blood poisoning and the amputation of
the member A machine gun bullet
caused the loss Of an eye, while in q mill
a fying piece Of steel might cause the
same disaster High explosive shell made
necessary the anputation of an arm,
while in the Industries machine opera
tor might get his sleeve caught in the
machine, thus resulting in the loss Of his
arm The industrial worker is in as much
danger Of his life and limb as is the soldier
on the battlefield.
The war has resulted in q number Of
social and economic readiustments, but
the attention which is being given to the
disabled is by far the most important
There is no forward step taken by the
United States which Will react to the con
tentment of it's workers and to the full
utilization of our man power as the act
which provides for the vocational re-
Mobilization Of persons disabled in in
dustry or otherwise and their return

foreign customs.
The war checked this inflow Of indiRcs~
fiblc humanity. Now il has started again.
What nre we going ~ do about itY
The trouble is that our immigration
legislation, like That on 81 many other
subjects, is bnscd not on scientific study
of the facts, but on compromise between
various conflicting interests. Perhaps the
intelligent way 10 solve the problem would
be 10 appoint n commission Of the highest
scientific character 10 study the question
and frame lePislaton. We had an elabo-
rate congressional investigation Of the sub
ject once, and it reached the astonishing
conclusion that it did not matter much
what type Of man WINS admitted becausc
as soon ms he began to breathe the free
and puIasant mir Of America he became
mn American, even the shape Of his head
changlngl
roRCEs INVOLVED
Legislation based on sucn conclusions
as that will not help much Neither do
the conclusions have much 10 do with tho
legislation. Labor wants immigration
restricted, because immigration means
cheap competition for labor The eastern
manufacturing interests want irnnigra-
ton unrestricted for the same reason
The far west wants immigration restricted
IN any WAY that will keep the Urientula
out and the west IN general is in favor of
keeping America for Americans These
various forces will fight il out again ns they
have before IN the House. labor and
the west have enough Influence to frame
legislation somewhat restrictive, but IN
the Senate big business holds the club
and the House bill is very likely to be
"liberaized
At present the major problem ~ inn
migration Is largely oisc,ned by the
anarchist scare. The principal bile now
before the committee are taken up
largely with natha and declarations, de-
signed 10 make the intending immigrant

ancestors that he docs not intend ~ put

the East Europeans began pouring m,
while the influx of North and West Euro
pean races fell off
Now NIL il changed With the growth
of Japanese, Negro and Mexican lmmIpra-
ton aa new factors, the Fast md south
European immigration has greatly dc
clined The proportion Of South Italians
for example. was only about tenth in
1919 what it was In 1913, and the proper
ton Of Hebrew, Magyar, Russian, Slovhk,
Roumanian, Syrian and Turkish itnmi-
grants has also declined enormously.
At the same time, the proportion OF
Englishmcn, Scotchmen and frenchnen
who came 10 this country IN 1919 each
increased to about four times what u
WAS in 1919.
This ia the encouraging feature OF The
immigration outlook that Frenchmen
and Fnglahmen are seeking the home 81
their late allies in cvcr-Increaslng num-
beers.
Of course, the character Of post war inn
migration IL stil IN the making The IN
hux of aliens is much greater today than
it was in 1919, threatening TO reach pre-
war proportions Also IL IL different
to some extent in character. Thus the re-
cent Polish Iebace il said 20 have sent a
horde Of Poles in this direction, while ~
1910 comparatively few of them arrived.
But the important fact ~ that the char
acter of immigration has radically altered.
The old immigration problem has become
new one Intelligent legislation on the
subject should be based ON a complete new
survey Of the facts
A new immigration bill il undoubtedly
To be n part of tho work Of Congress
The House Committee on immigration
has been holding hearings ont on the
Pacific Coast and also in Washington
Various bills have been drafted, and one
of them by johnson of California, the
chairman Of the committee, will doubtless
form the basis of legislation which the
committee will lay before Congress.
IMPORTANCE or REGULATION.
II is obvious Of course that nothing il
more important 20 this country than the
WAY in which immigration ~ being regu-
lated The whole eastern half Of the nit
cd States Is simply complex mass Of the
humanity which We have chosen TO import
from abroad We have a republic, which ls
based upon the assumption that the in
dividial voter has intelligence and good
Judgment The character Of immigration
Is therefore everything If we admit
hordes Of aliens who have not the IN
telligencc to grasp the idea Of Democracy,
and if We neglect TO teach them even the
language Of their new country, we can
scarcely hope for that intelligent body Of
public opinion which TX the only hope of
success for democratic government.
Undoubtedly during the first II or l3
years Of this century We did admit horde
OF aliens who were Of a low type, both
acially and culturally, and We did allow
them 10 collect in great masses Of undi-
luted forelgnncss. speaking foreign Ian

500, 100000 PLEDGED FOR P. r. F. AT
ST. LOUIS FUR AUCTION.

st. Louis.-That Jews predominant the
fur industry was evidenced recently at
the Annual Fur Auction sales in ST.
Louis. The sales are held once year,
and trappers, skin dealers, dressers,
manufacturers and jobbers in furs from
every corner of the world gather there
to make their annual purchases and de-
termine the prices Of the various skins.
Immediately upon the announcement of
the Palestine Restoration Drive, the fur
trade of New York pledged itself to raise
$100,000.00 for the cause, and last week,
while in ST. Louis upon learning that
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise was in that city,
they invited him to speak before them
at their annual banquet. Rabbi Wise adj
dressed them on the Restoration Fund,
and as a result then and there obtained
500, 100000 additional in subscriptions to
the fund. The amounts subscribed will
be credited to the cities in which the
donors reside.

JEWISH QUARTER OF ALEXANDRIA
SUFFERS DURING RIOTS.

Alexandria, Egypt, (By I. J. P. By
During the recent disturbances here,
which bore all the marks of prear-
ranged rebellion, the Jewish quarter suf
fered to great extent.
On the third day Of the riots, the
angry mobs, armed with clubs and mis-
siles, broke into the Jewish section and,
for three hours, the quarter was the
scene of the widest disorder imaginable.
Most of the shops here are those of small
traders in linens and cloth; besides these,
there are a few bakeries, groceries and
meat shops. All these were plundered;
whole lengths of cloth lie trampled in the
mud of the streets; the attackers took
away all the meat and other provisions
they could carry and then set fire to the
shops.
Missiles were hurled through the win
.dows of the Jewish homes, and many per-
sons in the houses wounded. Those who
were able to do so, fled by way of the
roofs.
This demonstration has occasioned
deep concern among the thoughtful
minded Egyptians. The numerous ex-
pressions of sympathy for the Jews,
