FACTS VS.. POLITICS

THE recently elected Commissioners of public lands for Arizona is in
Santa Fe for the pGrpose Of studying the policy aud admimstra-
= tin Of the New Mexico state lands In New Mexico there has
been much agitation, largely inspired by political motives for a
change OF land policy to that IN force in Arizona. II appears that
Arizona has not found its own system very satisfactory and that it
considers changing to the New Mexico system.
We have heard a great deal Of twisted fact and outright fiction
about the New Mexico state lands and their administration recently
a little consideration of facts is refreshing and may prove helpful in
saving New Mexico from mistakes that have been made in land nd.
ministration in other states and that have nt yet been made in this
state.
The new land commissioner Of Arizona is not a novice. lie has
years. He knows, the conditions. lie has stated that Arizona in
come from its lands LOST year was approximately S2OOOOO. and that
the cost Of administration was around 100000 Arizona, be it re-
membered, administers its lands through a commission; and If elected
to persue the more deliberate policy Of selecting the lands which has
been urged upon this state by theorists and Interested politicians.
New Mexicos income from It's lands during the fiscal year ended
November 30, was 81 3G0O00 The figure is not exact but is less than
the actual total. The cost Of administration for the period was less
than $4,000.
This comparison alone should tell the people of New Mexico a
convincing story about land administration and should cause them
to pause for careful consideration before they plunge into expert
mcnts and uncharted changes in public land policy.
That portion Of The report Of the special revenue commission
dealing with the state land department leaves the impression that
New Mexico land administration is careless and in some respects reek
less We do moi believe the commission intended to be unfair or to
present an alamist report. We do believe that il has been influenced
in IS conclusions by some of the vast volume Of political propaganda
directed against the land departmnt since statehood and that the sur
vy Of the department to which il refers as not yet completed will
show a much more satisfactory condition.
The report of the commission has been twisted and miconstrued
by those who have political Obiectives before them. This was incy-
table No doubt we will have much more of the same sort of thing.
The fact remains that in every comparison with land admins
tration elsewhere, the land administration in New Mexico in the mat
ter Of results for the people, is disclosed as the most efficient in the
United States. Every such comparison adds to the proof Of this
fact which Is one TO be Kept in mind by the people and by those in
authority in considering and deciding upon changes of policy and
administrative procedure.

THE FOREIGN FLOOD

FREDERICK A. WALLIS, commissioner of immigration at Ellis
n Island, announced Wednesday, that his reports from trans-Atlan-
= tie steamship companies showed that at least l5,OO0OOO people Of
every nationality are crOwding European ports fighting for passage
enng TO flood this country will serve to call attention to one of the
most practical suggestions yet made for the control of foreign immi-
grafton. This is the proposal of Senator Sterling Of South Dakota
for a federal immigration commission endowed with power TO control
power 10 prescribe the qualifications for admission, it is suggested,
but would also have power TO say how many immigrants from foreign
countries should be admitted and at what times.
To delegate such powers to a commission would require that its
membership be of the very highest character. II would have to
shoulder a measure Of diplomatic responsibility and it would need
thorough knowledge of the peoples of other lands and even more
borough knowledge of conditions in our own land. Undoubtedly its
powers should include the erection and operation Of really effective
sections where II can be most quickly absorbed and used with great
est benefit to not only the immigrants but to this nation In all our
consideration Of immigration problems i'll the past we have given all
too mreh theoretical notice to the interests of the immigrants and too
little to the interests Of our own country. Our wide open doors have
been our boast. But we have come TO the point where Boosting must
be supplanted by judgment and foresight.
On the other hand the United States does not desire TO shut Off
all immigration and j. is difficult il not impossible to fix restrictions
in law. Those That are wise in one year may be found unwise in
another.
If commission can be created with power to deal with all phases
Of our immigration problem, under a law broad enough to insure its
efficiency without crippipg its judgment we will probably have taken
a long step toward solution Of q problem that will have to be dealt
with in the immediate future. n tween those who take the position
that all immigration should be stopped and those who hold that the
doors should remain wide open TO the people of all lands, including
those of southern and eastern Europe, there is a middle ground and
a safe course. 1t cannot be fixed rigidly in law. 1t can be deter
mned by some such plan as the South Dakota senator had suggesgted.
Courage and patriotism of the highest order are required in
meeting this problem which must now be solved. In meeting II the
interests Of the United States and its future must have consideration
ers, or Of any class interest whatsoever To permit any organization
or selfish influence TO dictate the future immigration policy Of this
nation is 10 create a problem for the future far more serious than any
immigration problem we have yet encountered.

American wool industry must really protect. 1t is high time for the
United States to take a selfish stand in behalf of its basic producing
industries. The argument that an embargo o. this kind is a move

analysis Flooding America with cheap products of certain classes
may make those products cheaper for a very short time, but the effect
upon the country as a whole would be bound to prove disastrous.
Cheap wooden goods would be mighty little help to New Mexico,

BOOST THE POULTRY SHOW

q 8 O'Clock at the Chamber of Commerce pprlors.
Poultry raiseTs' themselves seem TO be little lax in boosting this
show which in previous years has been partly financed by outside
sources. Those who have been responsible in part for the success OF
previous shows are still willing Ia do their share, but want the poul
try raisers themselves to show just a little more enthusiasm.

should become a more important industry. Iet rEiserK Of poultry
turn out tonight and show that they are interested IN this show.
