TO IMPOSE FINES
ON CUNARD LINE
Violation of immigration Law AL
leged-Secretary of Labor Da-
Wis Takes Action.

Washington, Dec. 20.-Secretary
of Labor Davis has ordered fines to
the statute assessed against the Brit
ish Cunard steamship line, and has
asked the state department to make
diplomatic representations to the En-
glish government against what he Of
fcially classed ''as bold and, believe
4 knowing attempt on the part of the
company to violate the immigration
law either because of the paltry pro-
fits to be gained thereby or to dis
credit our immigration policy"
The circumstances complained of
arises out of the arrival on Decem-
Der 10 at New York of the liner
Aquitania with 800 Hungarian i'm
migrants, despite that on December
l, the immigration bureau had an
nounced to all steamship lines that
the quota of immigrants from Hun
gary legally entitled to enter the
United States up to January, 1922,
was exhausted. Mr.. Davis has like
wise addressed letter to Attorney
General Daugherty for legal opin-
ion on what action can be taken in
"an appalling situation which has
arisen by the reckless disregard OF
the law by the steamship companies"
Since the enforcement of the new
immigration act which limits the
number of aliens entitled to enter the
United States, in any one year to a
definite percentage of the number OF
alien nationals already resident in
the United States, the department
has been in almost constant contro-
versy with steamship lines.
"The chief offender in this instance
is the Cunard liner Aqqitania," Mr..
Davis said in his letter of protest to
the secretary of state.
