NEEDS COMMON LABOR
Scion Favors Temparory lmmi-
grafton To Supply Demand.
Advocates characterization to Prevent
Newcomers from Falling Under
Spell of Bolshev ism.

New York-Temporary modification
of the immigration laws to permit an
influx of desirable immigrants to meet
Americas labor shortage, was urged
here by United Staes Senator Walter
f. Edge of New Jersey in an address
before the National Manufacturers
association. He also advocated a pro-
cess of Americanization to prevent
new immigrants from falling under the
spell of worldwide anarchists and
~Bolshevists."
Immigrants should be saturated
with American loyalty and patriotism"
said Senator Edge, and should be pre-
vented from being led through the
mire of radicalism into the morass of
anarchy"
Quoting Commissioner of Immigra-
ton Caminetit as stating hat the rad
icals have a wonderful organization
for capturing each immigrant, almost
at the momnet of landing, and bring
ing him under their Influences" the
senator said that less than six weeks
is needed to prepare his mind for well

t%rines."
In urging modification of the immi-
grafton laws, the senator said. he did
not mean to open the doors to an in
discriminate horde of newcomers"
and adding that undesirables must not
be admitted and that none shall be
permitted to become an undesirable
after his entry"
+ Tenderness for Reds Scored.
Moreover, against such undesir-
ables." he added. who. may filter
through, | would apply every law for
deportation without the tenderness ap.
parently shown for radicals and Boil
shevists by Officials of the present ad-
ministration."
America needs common labor in all
OF its industrial fields, Senator Edge
declared. adding that industries of all
kinds are handicapped and in some in
stances almost crippled" by the short
age OF workers. He said that this was
mainly due to the graduation of ele-
mental American workers to higher
spheres OF work"

Career &c Metecr;c.
Venustiano Carranza, elected Presi-
dent of Mexico, March IL, 1917, by the
largest vote ever cast in a presiden.
tial election in his country, stepped
from political obscurity to national
and international prominence on the
graves of the hopes of General Victor.
iano Huerta the usurper, and his fol-
lowers.
simultaneously with General Huer.
ta's coup d'etat and the assassination
of President Madero, the news went
out to the world that General Venus
tiano Carranza, elected Governor of
the state of Coahuila in 1911, refused
to recognize the usurper and would re-
sist him by force of arms.
"Madero's revolution was political"
Carranza is quoted as having said.
Mine is a social one"
Born of parents in comfortable cir
cumstances in Cuatro Cienagas, state
of Coahuila, December 20, 1859, Venus
tiano Carranza was educated in the
public schools of his native state and
later studied law at the Mexican CAPT
tai. When he was admitted to the
bar, however, affection of the eyes pre-
vented him from practicing and he re-
turned to his native state to become a
rancher. His experiences as a rancher
first, then as judge, senator and finally
governor of Coahuila, made Carranza
familiar with the agrarian problem,
the root of political unrest in Mexico.
