 AIorgenstern, who is local busi- ness m5n, spoke on "The Immigrant in America and His Duties" lis talk follows, in part:
 Let us discuss, first, the reason why men and women leave their countries to immigrate to the United States and in doing so, we will find that there are three distinct classes, O wh.ch aga.n the first is to be sub- d. ided into two divisions.
 The reason for the men and wom en belonging to the first division of the first class, is a political or reli. gious one. Laws and prejudice of | their respective countries would not permit them to be satisfied with the existing conditions there in regard to politics.; and in respect to religion ! as the laws or an established religion would not permit them to i've accord ing to the dictations of their hearts and ideas. And, therefore, they gave up all they possessed in those cCun- tres rather than live under a mon archy system or a state church. Co immigrate of their own free will to country of which they had learned to be free and fair to everyone. To s country where there is no estab- lished house of rulers and where jus tice, liberty and religious freedom are part of the Constitution.
 I Have Suffered Hardships
 The second division of the first class, consists of men who actually have suffered persecution and prob ably Imprisonment for their political or religious belief.
 "Of the second division, at least seventy-five per cent might be termed with the first division of the first c.ass, as the most desirable immi grants for this country. While the last twenty-five per cent of the sec ond division are the ones less desir able as immigrants.
 "The men and women of the first division and the first seventy-five per cent of the second division of the first class of immigrants, come to this country with the firm intention to become part of the citizenry of this Union, to adapt themselves to the laws and conditions of this country This country can depend that they will be loyal, and, if called upon vii be willing to defend this land and it's Constitution against internal or external enemies if need be with the last drop of blood.
 Twenty-Five per cent remaining oi the second division ares men and women most undesirable to any coun try on earth. They are men who be lieye in the teachings of bolshevism anarchism and extreme socialism, anC are willing to spread teachings against any and every existing form of gov : ernment. Such men should be ex
 cluded from immigrating, or if such men or women have been permit e(
 to land in the past they should be de, ted, if rea eai, means tC

 "That much for the first class. The Second Class
 Now we come to the second clas: , of immigrants, and in this class wC
 find men and women who have .livet
 under extremely poor circumstances , or who have been financially ruined
 in their country and who hope tC
 gain or regain. if not wealth, de
 cent living by immigrating to Ameri ca. A so this class is very desirable } especially as we find amongst then
 skilled laboreFs and keen bus nes
 men in any and every trade and busi l ness But this class will need spec
 ial attention by the government. a
 their first intention is to make liv 3 ing; and to become citizens, is onl, | a secondary matter with them. Ant ! for this class, especially, law shoul' De passed compelling them to visi
