Washington, April 24.-Secrc .a-y
of Labor Wilson, after an al-.iay
argument, took under adNtsemeut
tonight the question whether mem
bership i'm the communist labor
party in itself constituted grounds
for deporta,io of aliens.
During the hearing there was a
flareup over statements atlrihut# I'd
to Federal Judge Anderson OF Bos-
ton that the government 'Operaiet

New York upholdng II, and J.

Armed with Voluminous COM
munist literature, Hoover attempt
ed to show by quotations Of l'nE h
excerpts the relationship between
the communist labor party and the

Asserting that John Reed, last
reported detained in Abo, Finland,
for affiliution with the bolsheV'Et
was the founder of the commu"is
labor party, Hoover declared u
was like all other communist or
ganlzations, "a gang Of cut throat

try to overthrow the government

AMAZING IMPORT FIGURES.

Members of congress received a ter

mission presented figures showing the
freshet of imports which poured into
this country during the four months
July, August September. and October.
As Representative Knutson, of Mime
sofa expressed it These figures are
simply amazing, and these imports are
to a considerable extent responsible for
the unprecedented slump in values"

bonded clerk could handle the funds,
at Il considerable saving TO the govern
ment. In other offices. one official
could handle all but the clerical work.
'One of he defects of the present
system" says the commissioners. lis
that where n vacancy occurs in one
of the offices. or one of the officers is
incapacitated. the whole public land
business in that district. so far as II
affirmative action is concerned. is prac-
tically suspended. to the detriment of
the service and disadvantage of the
public. On the whole | am rather of
the opinion that the consolidation of
the duties of these officers in one of
ficer would result in IL material II V
ing to the government. and in increased
efficiency" He thinks. however. THAI
the change to n one-man system should
be made gradually. and as the terms of
one officer or another ut Il given office
expire. rather than to attempt to abol-
ish one office all the way around at
IA given date. His object in urging
this gradual change is that the incum-
bent officials have been appointed for
four years. and should be allowed TO
serve GU their terms.

TO MERGE LAND OFFICE JOBS.
Consolidation of Offices of Register
and Receiver Suggested-RecOm-
mendation for Trial is Made.

Consolidation of the offices of reg
is recommended by the commissioner
of the general land office. both in the
interest of economy, and in the inter
est of better business conduct of these
local offices. The proposal is not IL
new one, and the recommendation is
made somewhat haltingly, but is
made nevertheless with the suggestion
that the ''one-man' plan be tried out
to determine its efficiency.
In connection with this proposal. the
commissioner recommends also that the
salaries of registers and receivers,
while the two offices are continued.
shall not he less than $1,000 per IN
mum, nor more than $4,000. their salar
les, as far as possible, to be paid from
fees collected at the local offices.
An entirely new recommendation is
made in connection with fees, however.
which is to be paid for every land APP
plicatiOn. filing. entry or selection. and
that the fees, once paid. shall go into
the treasury, and not he returned if
the application, filing or entry is with
drawn. In some cases fees are not
now required by law. and those fees
which are collected are returned to the
applicant or entryman if he |withdraws
his application, entry. etc.
The commissioner estimates that
100000 a year additional revenue can
be collected under the plan he proposes,
about 100000 of which would be ad-
ded to the reclamation fund.
The commissioner admits that if the
offices of register and receiver are
combined heavy burdens win fall up
on the officer retained in those offices
which transact a large business. but
in those offices it is suggested that a

DAVENPORT ITEMS.

Easter Sunday was a glorious day
for the citizens Of Davenport, the frs,
thing notable during the day for tn,
citizens of Davenport, the first thing
notable during the day was the yes
per services held at the Y. w. G. A. al
$3.50 q. m. The Y. w. Glee club sans
several Easter anthems, after which
short talks were given by several Of the
Y. w. @. A. leaders. About 7:15 the
vesper services let out. And then q
few Of the older girls entertained q
number Of young men to breakfast al
$3.50 q. m. The young men claimed the
<. girls were some entertainers, and
their cooking was some thing worth
while speaking about although the fel,
lows did furnish it. But it was an affair
to be remembered long by those who
partook Of the same.
The next event was the sermon
preached by the Rev. DR.. s. B. Moore
of the Bethel A. M. e. church. It seem
ed that the pastor, Rev. Moore was GER
tainly in accord with the Easter tide
for everyone was well pleased with the
sermon. The church was decorated in
the usual manner for Davenport, with
palms and flowers and Easter colors
strung here and there. The last event
of the day was the program rendered
by the students of the Sunday school,
which drew quite a crowd, to the ser
vices. Afer he day was gone he people
who appeared about the church said
tn Easter day had not been spent friv-
ilously, and everyone was happy, spread
ing their glad attire.
We are quite sorry to relate at this
writing that the Mrs. 8. B. Moore, wife
of our pastor, Rev. Moore is quite i'll
She has been i'll for number Of days
and at, one time was not expected to
recover but has since passed the danger
point, but is yet quite ILL., We all wish
her speedy recovery.
There is quite lot of competition
going on between the teams recently
organized by the members Of the Bethel
A. M. e. church. They are planning
FOR big rally to be pulled off during
the month Of May and the finals to be
on June the first. The pastor picked
out some very competent captains and
they are all working hard to out-do
each other. The captain reporting the

team by the rest Of the teams. Here
and there can be frequently heard
words "Never mind TIL be the one
to sit down at the banquet table,, and
with little laugh of confidence walk
spryly away. But we III all know when
the finals are counted.
There was quite time hello at the
A. M. e. church Sunday afternoon. The
N. A. A. G. iP. was favored with lee
ture by the assistant secretary, Mr..
White of the National headquarters Of
New York City. The affair proved to
be quite success, both numerically
and financially for the local branch.

ored with a rare treat. The REV.
