More Assurances
Aliens Not Waiting
to Crowd into u. S.

Washington. Jan. 12--Five witnesses
testified before the Senate immigration
committee today that the United States
was in no danger of a flood of I'M
desirable aliens and that no emergency
existed to justify suspension of pres
ent laws and adoption of the Johnson
bill prohibiting immigration for one
year.
Four of the speakers were officials
of trans Atlantic steamship companies,
who said their information, based on
an intimate touch with European CON
ditions, failed to indicate any great
increase in numbers of Europeans de-
string to emigrate to the United States.
On the contrary they said, there was
already a diminution in the numbers
of incoming passengers which was
causing ships to sail with empty berths
of the third class"
They credited the decrease in arriv-
ais to the fact that unemployment was
known to exist in the United States and
that immigrants had refused to come
unless employment were assured.
All declared it would be physically
lIllpOSSlDle, even Will luc use VI SHIPS
of all types, to bring more than $4,000
immigrants to the United States in 1921.
The fifth witness. Z. c. Harley of San
Francisco. secretary of the National
immigration council, made a plea for
pick and shovel laborers" rather than
for men Of education. He asked that
the literacy test be waived to permit
the workers to enter and declared that
the danger of immigration conferred in

agitator types.
Discussing the question Of distriba-
ton of aliens in the United States.
Lawson Sanford of the American line
said that Of 1895 passengers who ar
rived recently on a ship from Triest, q
per cent went to Ohio, II. Is per cent. to
Illinois; 4.10 per cent to Michigan; POLO
to Pennsylvania; 4.76 to New Jersey; 3
per cent. to New York state; 3.S5 per
cent. to Wisconsin; ESQ per cent. to
California and 2.51 to Indiana.
'Only 1851 per cent. went to New
York City" he said, adding that this
distribution was representative of the
distribution of immigrants from south
eastern Europe and Italy.
