In his statement Mr. Johnson said!
THE 1880 immigrants who arrived
Saturday on the White Star liner Adri-
attic have been sent to Hoffman Island
because Of an outbreak of typhus among
them. At Gloucester, N. j.. eleven aliens
have been taken from the steamship
Haverford and sent to the detention
station suffering with typhus.
The French Senate Is considering
closing the doors Of that Republic to
immigrants. owing to the spreading of
a mysterious disease. known as malady
No. 8, and with which tens OF thou
sands of Polish and Russian refugees
to Paris have suffered the last year.
French police says these immigrants
are crossing the French border daily
intending to go to America, despite the
fact that they have not obtained Amer
lean vises to their passports. In Parts
they are sleeping as many as twenty in
one room.
"In the meantime, while we are split
ting hairs over the methods of suspen-
sion, the Communist Party of America
has flooded the country with the most
vicious circulars 1t has yet put out 1t
calls for straight out revolution"

OF all construction st this time. It was
pointed out, would enable the British
to maintain Its superiority over any
two other nations, which has for years
been the British naval policy. With
the four year programme OF the United
states carried into effect. the point
reached by Great Britain In superiority
and which has been maintained for the
last two years without further building,
will be at once nenaced.
With Japan naval experts said the
situation was much the same Her
present naval programme, which will
continue till 1927, will place Japan
good third among the navies Of the
world. But Japan is also struggling
under an enormous burden of expenses,
with one-fourth of her annual income
now being expended on her navy. The
real facts of the situation, the experts
said were that both those Governments
are strained TO the utmost and cannot
continue naval expansion indefinitely,
while the United States is the only
nation that can carry on the competitive
race without fear of financial break
down.

HOUSE REPUBLICANS
CALLED FOR CAUCUS
To Determine Party Policy on

Washington, ID. c.. Dec. IL.
A caucus of House Republicans was
called to-day for next Friday night 10
determine the party policy on proposed
increases in House membership as the
result of the recent census.
The prevailing opinion Of House lead
ers Is that no increase in membership
should be authorized on the present cen-
sus figures because the House is some
what unwieIdJ at present. 1t seems.
however, thai the majority OF the MEM
bers do not want to reduce the represen-
tation of any State, which would have TO
be done If the figure on which represen-
tataion is based was raised to provide
for the Increase in population.
For this reason it is planned to sub
nit a resolution TO the caucus that any
increase made this year be limited 10
fifteen, which would make the member
ship $50. The membership has peen m
creased every ten years except once
since the Government started compiling
population figures.
The present basis is one Representa-
tive for every 211,S77 population. Should
this basic figure be continued, the House
would be Increased between forty ANA
atty members, leaders estimate IL
would cause several States Which have
not increased rapidly in population dur
ing the last ten years, including Maine,
Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and prob
ably Iowa, to lose one or two Represen-
tatives each. 1t Is believed these losses
can be prevented II the membership Is
increased to not more than $50. This
would grant increased representation 10

debate. it finally passed the bill Of Rep
resentative Johnson (Wash.). The bill
now goes TO the Senate, where 1T is GER

the fact that several Senators question
the wisdom Of closing Immigration doors
in so drastic a manner. The House
measure would not take effect until two
months after its enactment.

son said it should be passed to prevent
typhus victims from entering the coun-
try.

 The first arrests of the Irish pick eteIs were not unaccOmpanied by ele- ments of humor. The police who took them in was Robert Emmett Doyle, rosy-cheeked and blue-eyed, who coundn't possibly deny he was son of Erin. All the policemen on the ;ob were O'Connell's and Regans and 7lahertys or bore names unmista.I- ably neither Greek nor 1tddish. Their comments on the proceeding were neutral and humorous.
 I he whole proceeding was conduct ed in the height of courtesy and pol ite formality. There was no "come along, you're pinched." Instead, Cap tain Doyle raised his cap, and with an engaging smile said: Ladies, these are policewomen who will place you under arrest" Then the men stepped back and the women did the job.
