Rubber shares were comparatively

The slump was stopped partially

The recovery was led by General As

1t Is admitted on all sides now that one Of
the wisest measures passed by Congress was
the act restricting immigration to certain fig
ures each month. With unemployment in this
country at the alarming total 1t has reached:
with want and starvation menacing many coun-
tries in Europe and driving thousands Of
workers to these shores. it is inevitable
that there would have been overwhelming
rush Of immigrants to further increase the
number of applicants for each available job
and swell the list of the unemployed.
Z. 1t is estimated that the law now in force
has kept 250000 aliens out of the country thus
far. and that before it expires next June it
will have barred a million and half.

No one can doubt the existence in Congress
Of a disposition toward more restrictions upon
immigration than ever BEFORE and this senti-
rnent exists outside Of those circles which
hitherto have opposed immigration solely upon
the question Of competition with American
labor. The alien in midst became much
more conspicuous during the war. and while the

foreign-born residents will ever be a glorious

they have learned and are apply
