LABOR DEPARTMENT
MAKES RULING ON
CHINESE QUESTION
Will Not Allow Students TO
Come to America for In
dustrial Training.
BY LOUIS LUDLOW.
Washington Correspondent.) }


WASHl\GTON, ID. g, July o.
The department of labor has at last
decided the much agitated question
as to whether or not Chinese may
come TO the United States 10 obtain
Industrial training ia the shops Of
this country.
The ruling Of the department is
that all such requests must be turn
Cd down, and in order 10 show what
the custom would lead 10, the de-
partment points out that one organ
ization in Seattle has applied tor
permission TO bring in 1000 Chinese
students Il year for period or
years.
Question Brought Up.
The matter was brought con-
cretely to the attention of The dc
partnent through applications from
Ohio machine tool manufacturers,
who desired to furnish training 10
Chinese, thinking that when they
returned to China their knowledge
of American machine tools would
open a market for that product that
might develop To very consideratc
proportions. Letters strongly urg-
ing this authority be granted have
come during the last few weeks
from !. Albrecht and A. &. Platz.
OF Cincinnati; +. 6. Woods. Of ALI
unce, and others prominent in the
machine tool industry.
The department considered the
applications az great length because
of the importance Of the precedent
that would be set and its reply,
over the signature of Louis +. Post,
assistant secretary, has just been
sent to Sen. Pomerene 1t says:
"I beg TO advise you that it is
the view Of this department that
the existing Chinese exclusion laws
Will not permit Chinese persons to
come here for the purpose or work.
ing in various machine shops. fac
tories etc, in order that they may
obtain industrial training.
Want Chinese.
''The enclosed letters would in
dicate that il is proposed 10 bring
the young Chinese men in question
here for the express purpose Of Civ
ing them employment in the shops
Of the companies, this for the prl-
mary purpose of affording them a
practical training, they presumably
having completed their th1Oretlcal
studies while still abroad.
The coming Of a few students in
the capacity indicated doubtless
would not bring forth complaints
from American woTkmen, but when
the fact Is horne in mind that nu-
n mcrCus other companies and organ
izations have made similar applica-
tions and it appeared clearly from
some of these applications that the
students would. in Il substantial
sense. be actually employed on p
wage basis by these organizations, i
think il will be appreciated that the
advisability of departing from thc
strict definition OF a student which
the department has after long eX-
perience adopted for the purpose Of
administering the Chinese exclusion
law is open TO serious question.
Recalls Instance.
zone instance is recalled in
which an organization in Seattle,
Wash. made applications to bring
in, at the outset, one thousand
young Chinese students for enroll

country and for vocational employ

on arrival Of the Central compan-

floors and rushed in torrents down
the stairway carrying the stock in
all directions. The fire started near
the stock Of matches on the third
floor, but after a careful invesiga-
tiOn its origin remains unknown.
The interior OF the third floor was
badly damaged by smoke and the

did not reach the roof or penetrate
the floor. IL is said that consider
able Of the stock can be salvaged
Insurance amounting 10 $4,000
was carried on the stock and $25.-
600 carried on the building. The
huge clouds Of smoke attracted a
crowd Of several thousand people
which greatly handicapped the fire
men in their work.
Lack Of sufficient police protec-
tion TO handle the crowds also
caused considerable trouble for the
firemen. The crossing gates OF the
New York Central railroad were
lowered in an effort 10 keep back
the people. Several New York Cen

floor while numerous streams Of
water were thrown in the other
front and side windows When the
blaze had been placed under control
and three floors OF The building
were covered with at least a foot
OF water which formed a sea OF

Expectation was in the air and
the convention, which only a mo-
ment before had been in the
height OF disorder in a rackety
demonstration, quieted down like
magic, until q pin might almost
have been heard 10 drop in the
great auditorium as Carlin took the
speakers place and said in sub
stance:
Makes Statement.
Il am about to make an an
nouncement of greatest importance
10 This convention at the conclusion
OF which I shall move "a recess for
20 minutes 10 give the convention
an opportunity 10 decide what
course IL shall take. A Mitchell

nomination, but he is unwilling TO
delay the proceeding further and
authorizes me 10 finally. positively
and absolutely release every dele
gate pledged 10 him. that tho con-
vention may proceed 20 nominate
the next president Of the United
States"
There was a roar Of "Hurrah for
Palmer" as the lines broke and the
convention went into a recess. The
denOument. coming at the end OF 80
hard fought and fruitless ballots
gave the same effect as does an
over inflated automobile tire when
it bursts with a bang and then siz-
zles down
The entire Palmer vote added 20
McAdoo's total on the thirty eighth
ballot would give him 61612 The
Palmer votes added 20 the Cox total
on the same ballot would give the
Ohio governor 5941z Both leading
candidates would fall short OF the
two-thirds which IS 729.
The COncensus Of opinion seemed
20 be that Cox would gain I'm Massa-
chusetts. Michigan and Maine while
McAdoo would gain heavily IN
Georgia and that Pennsylvania
would split between Davis. McAdOO
and Cox. There was speculation as
70 how long Davis votes would hold.
Delegates Divided.
Delegations voting solidly under
the unit rule but AZ heart divided
between McAdoo and other candI-
dates. have developed ill feeling, so
much so that the caucuses which
took place on the floor during the
recess gave evidence of the feeling.
There was shouting. waving Of arms
and some shaking OF fists Platform
and convention hall floor were
TANNED with an arguing. gcsticu-
lating mass OF men and women
mostly men-but the argument was
not greater in volurle with them de-
spite their preponderance IN num-
Der.
Both tho McAdoo and Cox forces
were claiming the bulk or the Pal
mer delegates.
Some OF the Cox workers said that
while they hoped 10 get a benefit
from the release OF the Palmer dele
gates. they did not see a nomination
on an immediate ballot and that
there still was some fighting ahead.

UNCLE WIGCMY AND
THE TAP TAPER.

Once upon a. time. when Uncle
wiggily was hopping through the
forest Of Woodland. near the Orange
Ice Mountains. he, hoard a rattling
sort of noise on a tree over his head
and then, all of a oneness, that
sound stopped and voice chirped:
We'll dear me! II this isn't bad
luck! Whatever shall do to feed
my hungry birds?'
Uncle Wiggily looked up and there
on limb, not far above his head.
he saw a gray bird, with redifeath-
ers on his head. The bird had long.
sharp and very strong bill, like an
ice pick.
What is the matter. Mr.. BirdT'
asked the rabbit gentleman. You
seem to be in trouble"
II am" answered the bird. Il
few down on this limb to fnd some
thing to eat for my hungry birds,
but my feet are caught in tbs sticky
gum which oozed out through a
crack In the bark and / cannot pull
myself loose. o. what trouoble am
in!"
"Ha! Don't say thatr begged I'm
Gle Wiggily. Perhaps may be able
to help you"
Uncle Wiggily reached up with his
red, white and blue striped rheuma-
usm crutch and gently. very gently.
loosened the birds feet from where
they were caught in the sticky gum
of the tree
oh thank you!" chirped the bird
as he few away "You have done
me a wonderful favor and / hope,
some day. l may be able to pay you
back"
STUFF and nonesense" laughed
Uncle Wiggily, his pink nose twink
ling twice as fast as never was. "I
am only too happy to do you the fav-
CT. i want none in return"
Then Uncle Wiggily made low
and polite bow with his tall silk hat.
while the bird nodded his red head.
AS the bunny rabbit hoped on
through the woods, looking for more
adventures. he heard a noise like:
Tap! Tap! Tappity tap-tap"
IF that bird is making the noise
he is a most peculiar chap" thought
the bunny rabit.
On and on went Uncle wiggily.
and pretty soon he looked around the
corner of the stump and he saw the
bad old Skeezicks. But, as yet. the
Skeezicks had not seen Uncle Wig
gily.
'Ha! This is no place for mel"
softly whispered the bunny to him
self. I'm going to run as fast as
can hop, skip and jump
Away he went through the
bushes before the Skee saw him.
Uncle Wiggily was going very rap
idly when. all Of a sudden. his foot
caught in a vine.
Down fell the bunny rabbit gen
tleman, but that was not the
