RESTRICT IMMIGRATION

A recent dispatch from Washing ton quotes member of Congress as saying that this country is being fill | ed up with undesirable foreigners and that various agencies are facili- tating the movement of these radicals and undesirables.
 How much longer is this country going to consent to being the dump ing ground of the riff raff of Flu rope?
 We have received many good citi- zens from the various countries of the old world, but We also have been handed a great many lemons. Dur ing the period of the war and since it's end we have suffered from our lax laws in regard to immigration.
 Just now we are facing condition which we are liable to have too many workers as it is. Men are being laid off in nearly every industry and If it keeps up we will face situation such as obtained in 1893, when soup kitchens flourished throughout the land and jobless men marched across the country to Washington to de- mand that Congress do something to relieve them and get matters back to normal.
 It may be thought that by unre- stricted immigration employers may be able to break the back bone of high wages, but if such is the object it may operate as a boomerang.
 Among the hordes coming to this country are few skilled laborers, but they are mostly of the peasant and day-laborer class-the rougher ele- ment.
 Organized labor is said to be pre- pairing to ask Congress to restrict all immigration for two years. It might be well worth trying.
 The states of the Pacific coast are getting mighty tired of the growing Japanese population and that situa- ton will sooner or later be a cause or a pretext for war with Japan.
 We could easily use such immi- grants from Europe as come here with the money and the desire to buy land and settle down and become useful citizens. But it is a growing menace to have these foreigners come here in droves and settle in eelonies in our large cities, where they live and follow the customs of Europe-modes of living which are at strict variance with American standards.
 If it is expected to defeat the plans of organized labor by this wholesale admission of immigrants it would be well to remember that the foreigner easily recognizes the value of organ ization and it will not be long before they are gathered into the union fold, and when this is done what have we profited?
 For present needs we have enough people and it would be well to stop the flow before conditions grow worse.

How can the price of labor drop until other things go down? Most of the things that are selling at a high price were made some time ago and if labor goes down now, the laborer wouldn't have enough to get by with.

Evening Chat

At "The Lost Battalion" last night
at the Opera House four young people
sat together on the right hand side
of the house who managed to disturb
everyone around them. All over the
theatre one could hear their noisy
laughter. At first people began to
whisper to one another and to inquire
what had gone wrong. Was some one
mad? Didn't whoever it was realize
that this was no time to laugh with
some pretty-true-to-reality stuff on
the screen? But the four young people
went right on giggling and they con-
tinued to laugh loud and boisterously
all through the picture, poking one an
other to action again whenever the
hilarity reached too quietness. Peo-
pei moved their seats or got entirely
out and stood. Others remained un-
comfortable enduring it as best as
they could. I'm still wondering this
morning what was wrong with the
upper stories of those young folks.
Surely they did not realize what they
were doing!

REQUEST LEAGUE
FOR GOVERNMENT
FOR ARMEN|ANS

| Geneva, Nov. 22-The American del
egates to the Phil-American league
have presented a memorandum to the
congress of the American league now
in session here, proposing to the League
of Nations assembly form of govern.
ment and administration for Armenia
The American delegates to the Phil.
Armenian gathering are Walter George
Smith of Philadelphia, II. c. Jacquith
of New York City and DR.. William w.
Peet of Fall River, Mass.
The memorandum sets forth that
"the greatest and most urgent need Of
Armenian people today is that of set
tied political institutions with security
it says: I'm our opinion the sovereignty
of the Armenian race sreposes IN the
people themselves inhabiting those po-
litical areas in which the Armenian
race is dominant"
AS to mandates over Armenia, the
memorandum states: I'VE hold strongly
to the view that the people of Armenia
are capable of evolving and building
up an independent administration
which will ultimately possess the at
tributes and be able to discharge the
functions of we'll ordered state, and
we are therefore prepared to support by
all means in its power any mandatory
acceptable to the Armenian race pro-
viding always that the terms of the
mandates arc such as will admit Of the
establishment in due time of RESPONSE
Bile government for Armenia holding
those sovereign rights and possessing
that international status which is i'm
piled in the recognition given in the
recent treaty to the Armenian republic
Eve suggest that the mandate should
be conferred for terminal period of
20 years only subject to periodic exten-
sions of five years at the request of a
representative Armenian government
and with the approval of the League
of Nations.
