Shutting Off immigration.
Congress is clamping the lid down
on indiscriminate immigration and the
flood of foreigners who have been
rushing to our shores is to be checked
for at least a year. The immigrants to
be admitted will come here under very
stringent regulations the chief of
which will be that they will join rel
atives who are already American citi-
zens. Here we have condition where
our own citizens stand as sponsors for
foreigners who are permitted to land
upon our shores. Obviously the prop
er thing to do is to close the ports of
the United States to immigrants until
conditions in this country have resum-
ed normal status. Then they can be
opened upon terms which will insure
the admission of only those foreigners
who come with high respect for the
American Government and its institu-
.tions and with desire to become Am
erican citizens.

Too Much Politics.

While the senate exercises its well
relished right to twaddle its thumbs,
foreigners continue to pour into. the
United States at q. rate that is unex-
celled in history and truly appalling
in its possibilities of evil to the United
States. In the face of an industrial
crisis, in the face of the almost daily
closing of big mills, there are those
who continue to argue that we need
more of Europe's unskilled labor. And
the army of unemployed steadily

The deiiberative senate is opposing
through inaction public sentiment
in favor Of strict immigration regula-
ton that is not far short of demand.
The senate is too much concerned
with politics, both home and inter-
national, to hurriedly dispose of this
problem which 50 vitality concerns
every American. And the tide still
pours in. Twenty millions of Euro
peans. It is' conservatively estimated,
await only an opportunity to come to
America.
We are sick and tired of being a
melting pot. We want, first of all,
to build 4 national pulse that is strong
and unending. We can never do it
so long as this land is the haven for
everybody who is minded to flock to
our shores.
There is talk of distribution as a
solution for the immigration prob
lem. "Send 'em where they amt" is
the slogan of those who think we
might tread on some nations toes if
we took drastic steps to prevent this
peace-tine invasion whose conse-
quences cannot far fail to equal any
onslaught we could anticipate from
an armed enemy.
Regulation will not suffice. Idaho
has no room for fifty thousand Serbs,
Croats, Czechs, Greeks and what not.
Keep them outl Make America an

About Japan.

Evidently Japan has again drawn
in her horns. Dispatches from Wash.
ington convey the reassuring informa.
ton that negotiations are underway
which promise new treaty between
the United States and Japan which
will greatly clarity the present rather
badly muddled situation. And the
California anti-iand-owning law is to
! be embraced in the treaty.
California has something of habit
of stirring things up between Uncle
Sam and Japan. We of the west have
long appreciated and sympathized
with CALIFORNIA; protective measures.
And, it seems. the knowledge is slow
iy filtering into the senses of our
, east that CALIFORNIA; problem is a
vital national affair.
Japan has always strongly resented
every protective step taken in success
sion by California and, thus far, al
ways backed up by our government.
1t is her right. Needing a place in
the sum to a degree that was un-
dreamed by Russia and Germany, it
was inevitable that Japan would con-
test every closing door.
But Japan has always been wrong.
At no time has international law ever
questioned the right of any nation to
determine it's immigration policy or
that of citizenship requirements. And,
it must be noted, Australia has far
more drastic regulations relative to
the japanese than was ever contem-
plated in the United States. Yet Eng
land and Japan are allied nations un-
der treaty Of long standing.
Japan makes mountains of MOLE |
hills and rather enjoys it. A little
firmer attitude, a more united Ameri-
ca would encounter plastic Japan.
Dur hesitancy and uncertainty gives

'luffer.

ATTRACTIVE HOME
FOR SMALL FAMILY
White Bungalow Is Very Artistic
in Design.
HAS UNIQUE ARRANGEMENT
Placing OF Rooms Is Convenient and
Building Presents Fine Appearance
Plans Can Easily Be Altered
to Suit Ideas Of Builder.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building. for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor Author and Manufacturer, he
Is, without doubt. the highest authority
on all these subjects. Address all inquiries
to william A. Radford, No. 1877 Prairie
avenue, Chicago, ILL.,, and only enclose
three-cent stamp for reply.
Since hostlities in Europe ceased
and the restrictions that were imposed
on building during the war have been
removed there have been planned
many thousands of homes that will be
erected this year. Designs for these
homes are as varied as are the indi-
yidual tastes of the owners. However,
there is one type of house that is ex-
ceptionally popular. That is the bunga-
low.
The advantages of bungalowrthat
is the house that has all Of its rooms
on one floOr-are so numerous that
they explain the popularity of this

many learned for the first time the sat
isfactiOn that comes from saving. And
there is nothing more worth saving for
than a home.
Now that the building season Is open
It Is time to consider what sort OF
a house to build The design illus
trated here Is a good one for those
who want bungalows. However, 1t can
be changed to suit the ideas OF. the
builder. BY consulting with the To-
cal contractor or architect, these
changes can easily be made. Also 1t
can be learned what such bungalow
will cost by interviewing the lumber
dealer and builder.
Securing the money to build
house is Il comparatively easy matter,
as banks and individual lenders con-
slider improved real estate the best Of
security. BY paying a small proper
ton of the cost down, the balance
can be paid as rent.
Owning a house is the finest invest
ment in the world, and with all the
reasons why building should be done
now. home building should be popu'
lar this year.

architectural design. These houses,
planned to contain four, five or six
rooms usually, are ideal for small
families. Architects, too, have de-
signed them so that they present an
attractive exterior appearance and
give a great deal of satisfaction to the
owner.
Illustrated herewith is fine sample
of bungalow designing. This white
bungalow Of wood construction has a
convenient room arrangement and
presents a fine appearance. Ranged
across the front are living, dining 8nd
bedroom, while at the rear Is another
bedroom separated from the kitchen
by the bathroom.
The porch set into the house is UNI
usual, while the pergola Mt the side Is
an artistic addition to the house. The
Dimensions of this bungalow are 80 by
80 feet. The entrance at the end OF
the porch leads into the living room,
which Is IS by IS feet inches. In
the exterior wall Is fireplace, on
either side of which are windows.
-Four windows are provided in the
front of the room. The dining room
Is 10 by II feet and has a cOlonnade
between it and the living room, which
makes it a light and attractive room.
Adjoining the dining room at the cor
ner is o bedroom, II by IL feet q
inches. Back of 1t, also on a corner,
is q second bedroom. Between this
