U. S. Lemon Growers
Hit by Importation

BERKELEY, Cal, Dec. 1.-THE aris-
tocratic American dollar which on ac-
count Of its high rating is in greater
proportionate valve away from home than
here, is doing harm TO the exporter, ac-
cording to Dean Walter Milford, Of the
University of California College Of Agrs-
culture. Dean milford says:
Lemon growers Of California must
find some way to overcome the handicap
OF the exchange rate. Although the SELL
ing cost this year was kept down to tho
remarkable low figure OF 2.01 per cent
Of the delivered value, California lemons
cost the growers not less than IS a box.
while imported lemons were selling at
an average of $3.50 per box With the
present exchange rate the foreign lemon
grower can exchange S2.33 for a much
larger sum in his own country.
There are several ways In which tho
citrns industry of California may be pro-
tected. A protective tariff, sufficient to
meet the difference in the foreign cost Of
production, Is likely to be spilled. Cali
fornla lemon growers will continue to
produce high quality Of fruit and keep
down the cost OF production as much
as possible through tho best cultural
practices"

Little Can Be Done to Keep
Out Undesirables.'

BERLIN, Dec. 1T-Emigration to the
United States from central Europe has
reached stage where II threatens to
dump into America nearly 100000 OF
the "most undesirable peoples OF Eu-
rope" says an official OF the state de-
partment who has been watching the re-
cent exodus with much concern.
The emigrants are principally from
Russia and Poland, and large numbers
Of them, who are very poor, have been
directly assisted with money and ad
vice from America the correspondent was
told Consular offices are swamped with
their applications for passports and
steamship accommodations are made

to sail.
There is virtually no check on this
movement, which. beyond any question,
must soon be a most serious problem in
America" the correspondent was in
formed. AN effort has been made to
keep out the so-called reds, but that,
too. Is futile. for it is impossible to
investigate the applicants carefully
enough to exclude undesirables.

seems to me, is n new immigration law

doing their best to meet the emergency

Is pitiably inadequate About all that
can be done is to send Department of
Justice agents to New York and warn

moters Of this immigration that they

Inez 'Su0h' Runs One
Department for the
Official Family
COLOred Cook in Harding Home
Goes to White House on
Inauguration Day.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Hines, the
now famous colored cook Of the Harding
family. who won laurels both at the
Harding home in Marion and at the
Senator's town house In Wyoming ave-
nue here, will come to Washington on
March and enter upon her duties as
commanders -chief of the White House
kitchen.
So runs the gossip in Washington 80
cia1 circles, and the report is likewise
current in political quarters where Inez
Is particularly popular because Of the
skill with which she catered to the phys
ical needs of the small army Of political
leaders who found their way to Marion
at various times during the recent cam
Faign.
Incidentally, the coming Of IneZ Will
lhwart the ambitions Of numerous other
colored artists with aspirations to be
chief cook at the executive mansion dur
ing the regime Of the Harding family. 1t
appears that since the election the Presi-
dent-elect and Mrs. Harding have been
the recipients Of many application from
chefs" ordinary cooks, buffers and the
like, all anxious to WELD the marshaPs
baton over the White House range.
Though a few Of these applicants have
been white, the majority were negro, for
the fame achieved by IneE following Sem
ator Harding's nomination at Chicago,
seems to have aroused the envy OF her
coIored sisters and brethren Many Of
those seeking the position claim to have
served in the homes Of the elite.

and those other breakfast dishes which
please the President elect, and which
will continue to please him as much

he was q plain citizen. editor Of the Ma

Maryland has nothing on Inez.
Mrs Harding is herself an excellent
ook. Her recipes became well known
turing the campaign, and while they
we're given out because they were sup
posed TO be of interest to voters, Re
publican political workers insist they
helped make votes among the men. But
he real responsibility for the handling
Of affairs In the Harding kitchen rests
on Inez, whose other name nobody has
thought to inquire about
Not only does Inez do the cooking, but
what is more. she does the buying Of
foodstuns for the Harding household.
This has been q large responsibility
through the summer and fall, with cpl
cures often on hand for dinner and
usually staying overnight for breakfast
Those who know the tendencies of
Inez say that when she gets Into the
White House 1t may be expected that
every morning she will be discern!ble

cession to the dignity Of her new posi-
tion, she probably Will journey thlther
