The Immigration Problem

When congress meets it should deal speedily
with the immigration problem Thousands of
foreigners, dissatisfied with conditions in their
native countries, many of them unable to make a
living there, are flocking to the United States.
The bars to their entrance are very low, enabling
almost every one who has satisfied few reg
ulations to enter the country.
The menace in the large number of foreigners
is to be found not only in the absence of machin-
cry to Americanize them rapidly and make them
integral parts of our nation but also in the COM
petition for jobs which their presence involves.
They are coming at time when thousands of
Americans are unemployed, and when our indus
tries are running on reduced time schedules. The
immigration problem today is closely linked with
the welfare of our citizens generally and of bust
ness in particular.
Congress ought to pass some legislation that
will restrict aliens from landing by the thousands
until the industrial slump is over, our own work.
ers employed and there is real need for more
workers in this country. This consideration is
an important one just now.
The American worker cannot compete with
foreign labor. His standard of living is on a
plane which requires more money than does that
of the recently arrived immigrant, who is accus-
toned to the low standard of European countries.
If we permit thousands of foreigners to enter the
country now, making it increasingly hard
for the American worker to obtain work. Our
consideration of the welfare of the native worker
should be paramount to that of the man who has
just landed in this country.
There is little divergence of opinion on this
point, and congress probably will enact legisla-
ton that will give the desired protection to
American labor This is time to permit the
landing of thousands of Europeans who come
primarily to seek material advantages The
blessings of our institutions and the advantages
of our form of government have not attracted
them to this country They come not to gain
political freedom, but to enjoy monetary advan-
tages So long as our own country cannot give
work to its citizens it is poor policy to welcome
strangers.
