COMMISSIONER WALLIS STATES
NEW POLICY.

NEW YORK, August 16.-The
slogan of, Ellis Island immigration Of
ficials henceforth is to be: Speed
the incoming guest-policy." This
decision recently was announced by
Frederick A. Wallis, newly appointed
Commissioner of immigration, after
he had played the role of an immi-
grant for one night and had passed
long and tiresome hours on the island
waiting for barge for New York.
So convinced is Commissioner Wal
lis that immigrants are being need
lessly detained on Ellis Island after
they have been passed into this coun-
try by immigration officials and that
other reforms are urgently needed
that he intends to move to the island
from his New York home and devote
both days and nights to his new
wsrk.
Officials of the island, according
to Mr.. Wallis, are adherents of the
theory that an immigrants time is
worth nothing at all.

break up the bad habit of OBTAINING
immigrants to Ellis Island after they
have been admitted to the country.
Ever since l took up my new duties

immigrants sitting for hours in the
crowded railroad rooms of the island.
l have found immigrants sitting in
these rooms who had been there all

station. l fell in with a group that
was going to Weehawken to take 9
train and some Of them told me they
had spent long and tiresome day
in the crowded rooms"
In the work of getting the immi
grants through and out of New Yorl

UNITED STATES APPROVES
RUSSIAN RECOGNITION

WASHINGTON, Aug 16.-Com-
mitted to program of war to the
death against Russian Sovietism
the United States Government tao
ity is approving of French recogni
ton of the de factO Government OF
General Baron Peter Wrangel In
Southern Russia.
While State Department officials
refused to make any admissions
concerning action by the French
Government, which has caused ar
international sensation, official con-
firmatior of it's action has arrived
in Washington.
Action by the French Government
in recognizing General Wrangel, re-
garded at first as at variance with
the note addressed by Secretary OF
State Colby to The Italian Ambassa-
DOR outlining American policy, is
not regarded in official circles.
While it is recognized that the
position of the French Government
might be made more clear if it's rec.
OgnitiOn of General WIangel was
accompanied by an expressed deter
miratiOn not to aid in breaking up
Russian territory, still 1t is regarded
as q means II 81 end. That end is
the overiuTnin~ of the Soviet Gov
eminent, to which the United States
also is committed.
While there is no evidence OF
knowledge Oh the part of the French
of the Colby note in advance, yet it
is considered barely possible some
limitations of its contents may have
been obtained by the French Gov
eminent.
In any event the combination OF
the American note, French action
and it's tacit approval by this Gov
eminent is looked upon as an effect
i've veto upon any possible attempts
On the part of the British Govern
ment to deal with SOvietism.

ENGLISH PREMIER GE0RG
CONDEMNS FEDERAL

LONDON, Aug. 16. = Premier
Lloyd George has given to M. Kras-
sin and M. Kameneff. Bolsehviki
emissaries here, an unequivocal as
surance that he will not stand back
of the French recognition of Gen
eral Wrangel as the de facto Gov
trnment in Southern Russia.
He intends to make Immediately
a public statement to that effect,
condemning the French movement
as gravely imperilling the impend-
ing peace between Poland and Rus
STA, inasmuch as it is likely to
mislead the Poles into believing
that the allies secretly are bent on
an anti-Soviet policy.
The crisis is sufficiently grave to
cause the King to postpone his 0e-
parture for Scotland and Lloyd
George to defer his vacation, which
he intends taking in Switzerland.
The Premier is represented as be-
ing deeply offended at Premier Mil
lerand's disregard for diplomatic
etiquette, which Whitehall consid-
ers a calculated insult in view of his
speech I'D the House of Commons.
The wires between Downing
street and the DUAL d'Orsay were
busy the entire day in an attempt
to arrange another meeting between
the two Premiers for the coming
weekend.
The staggering coup of France
has deprived her of the support of
the London Times, which hitherto
has been the only paper 10 back her
postwar belligerency. In an edi-
torial- to-day it warns the French
Government against OvertaXing the
siren 9Th of the allies.
Other papers unqualifiedly predict
the end of the alliance, warning
France that she must either follow
Lloyd Georges peace policy OF be
left to face the Soviets single
handed, with England withdrawing
all forms of commercial and fnan-
cial cooperation.

cox OPENS SPEAKING CAM
PAIGN IN OHIO

CAMF PERR1 u, Aug. To-
Honorable prevention of war by
1.-The arEitrament of reason rather
than of force" was urged by Cover
nor Cox here in an address
opening the Democratic Presidential
nominees national speaking tour.
Governor Cox did not make the
League Of Nations the paramount
issue of the Democratic campaign
as declared in his acceptance ad-
dress, the text of his speech
at the national rifle contests, but
he emphasized the toll of the war
and said that the peoples of the
world now seek peaceful modes of
settlement.
81 recognize" he said to an audi
ence of National Guardsmen, regu-
lar soldiers and civilians, that in
a sense you are assembled here fC;'
purpose of increasing the efficiency
of our military strength, and yet
am convinced that the great mass
Of our soldiers is united in purpose
and prayer to prevent wars in the
future, if it can be hOnOrably done.
There will always be National
Guard in the States, if for no other
reason than domestic defense, and
the military arm of the Federal
Government will be maintained,
but the hope that vast expenditures
for ornaments are thing of the
past, possesses every home in Amer
lea, while the common Impulse that
moves the great mass of people
worldwide is inspired by the vision
20 no of
troversy by the arbitrament of rea-
son rather than by force"
Asks Justice To Soldiers
Praising the National Guards
mems record in the war, Governor
Cox said many had failed to receive
commissions won by bravery, and
declared that belated justice now
should be accorded them.
Governor Cox Celebrates on a
theme in his acceptance speech,
government aid to eX-service men,
declaring many met obstacles on
returning to civil life. These, he
said, the government should assist
wherever possible.
The Governor also cited the value
of American workmanship in the
nations history, and expressed the
hope that America would continue
"a nation of sportsmen, devoted to
the propagation of wild life and
building health and sinew in the
Open"
The occasion of Governor CoX's
address was the presentation Of
the Governors Cup" in the national
rifle shoot He returned to Column
bus tonight and will make his next
experimenting foray on Saturday at
Wheeling, w. Va.
Expenditure in war of lives and
treasure was stressed by the Demo-
cratic candidate in his plea for
peaceful relations between nations.
1.-The cost to the United States"
he said, twas more than one mil
lion dollars an hour for over two
wears. The total expense of TWEEN
ty-two billion dollars was almost
equal to the total disbursements Of
the United States Government from
l1791 to 1918. 1t was sufficient to
have run the Revolutionary War
for more than one thousand years
at the rate of expenditure which
that war involved. The army eX-
penditures alone, so experts claim.
are a near approach to the amount
of gold produced in the United States
from the discovery of America to
the outbreak of the European War,
and yet the United States spent
only about one fifth of the eXpedi-
ture of the allied side
