Such restoration Senator France
places at it's right level-above all per-

not speak as Republican Senator only
He speaks also as a Senator of the United
States. He says plainly that if his party
will not undertake the work of making
America America again, thens some party
must undertake it and bring it to ac-
complishment.
The admonition and warning by Sena-
tor France came at an opportune mo-
ment. AEsolutism has gained consider

When Allen, old man Days candidate

on account of which his adssociate was
sent to the Federal Government peni-

If any one of the charges enumerated
above is true, then Attorney Allen and
his campaign manager, Editor Frank A
Day of the Fairmont Daily Sentinel
should bow their heads in shame and
retract every unkind and derogatory
word uttered and written by them about
New Ulm and it's citizens.
During the late World war, Attorney
Allen, then county attorney of Martin
county, developed unusual zeal in prose
cutting people whom he charged with be
ing disloyal, pro-German, ETC., but in
all of the many cases Of this kind there
were very few, if any, convictions.
Many of the indictments returned by
the grand jury against Martin county
citizens for alleged disloyalty were
quashed and the defendants were never
brought to trial
We would great deal rather be ac-

Greatest immigration Flood
Now Pouring Into America

Yet, on recent day, 10000 aliens
were fed there. During another day
the same week 1000 persons were
detained in the holds of the vessels
which brought them over, while offic-
ials struggled with the work of exam
ming 1000 then on the island. For
two days the island doors were shut
against incomers, who remained on
boats.
The rapidity of handling them de-
pends upon the aliens themselves.
Commissioner Wallis has found that
some groups are easier to examine
than others, while care must be taken
IN separating the. many nationalities
which make the island conversation
sound lire that at the Tower of Ba-
bel.
"If we mix English, Irish and
Jews there will be a free-for-all fight
in ten minutes" said the commits
sioner. "The English won't eat with
the Jews. and call them foreign
ers'."
Three recent additions to the tasks
of the immigration officials have
made more tedious and handling of
the aliens. Much time is required in
viseing passports and the literary
test which all immigrants must pass.
also causes trouble. Each alien must
read in one language before being
admitted. In addition to its labors
with the aliens, the immigration of
ficials examine every seaman enter
ing the port, even though he left it
but a few days before. In the last
eight months 100000 seamen were
examined here.
Despite congestion everything pos
sible is being done to make the treat
ment of the aliens on the island hui
name. Babies are given warm milk
and crackers. Candy, cigarettes,
fruit and other comforts are fur
nished adults. Sunday concerts, with
bands, grand opera stars and others
on the program, are held weekly. For
those who cannot find bed 10000
army blankets recently received from
Washington are available for impro-
vised sleeping equipment.
Ellis Island authorities are trying
not to keep the aliens in the holds of
the vessels after arrival and are striv-
ing not to delay commerce by hold
ing up shiOs in that manner and so
far they have succeeded. But, no
matter how fast the Immigrants ar

NEW YORK, Oct. by Asso-
~ ciated Press. Ellis Island,
melting pot of the world. is boiling
as never before, with the greatest
flood of immigrants in history pour
ing into it. Millions more are clam
oring at Europe's exits, anxious to
come to America and Congress will
be pressed to quickly enlarge both
the physical plant and working force
on the Island to more than double its
present size, according to Immigra-
ton Commissioner Frederick A. Wal
lis.
Since early last summer, aliens
have been entering Americas front
door in unprecedented numbers. The
problem of housing them until the
can be admitted to the country has
become nainful to all parties con-
cerned. Recently hundreds of inmI-
grants detained for investigation had
to sleep standing up. as the floors
benches and chairs already were fill
ed with the backwash from the con-
gested dormitories.
The tide is certain to become
greater with the each passing month
Commissioner Wallis felt assured.
ISteamship operators informed him
their accommodations are booked to
capacity for II months ahead. Gov
eminent officials announced 267,-
600 applications had been made for
passports in Poland alone, mostly
by Jews, while hundreds of thous-
ands in other parts of Europe also
were anxious to cross the seas to
this country.
Between 100000 and 1000, 900
Italians are seeking domiciles and
citizenship here and more than g.,
| 000,444 Poles want to come over, :"
said Commissioner Wallis, who at
tributed the exodus from Europe to
the harsh postwar living conditions
and the economic situation.
Frequently the commissioner ask
ed the aliens why they left Europe.
Most of them replied "no money,
no eat" he said. Many Italian farm
ers declared they quit their native
| soil because of the danger from ex-
| plosions when blowing in former bat
tlegrounds.
Added to the prospective influx of
immigrants from the countries of the
wal uiIiSS Win NC IIllIlOilS III IIOH
Germany who, as soon as. the way is
clear, will seek passage TO America
the immigration authorities have
been informed by reliable and offic-
ial sources.
"The immigration in the future
will be limited only by the capacity of
the vessels" Commissioner Wallis
said.
In the meantime while wondering
how many years it will be before
aliens quit coming across the sea
at their present rate, Ellis Island
workers are perplexed over their ex-
listing problems. The normal capac-
ity of the island is reached when q
600 immigrants are inspected daily
