ELLIS ISLAND COMMISSIONER SAYS SHIP CAN'T TRANSPORT
 ALL THE ALIENS.
WOULD INSPECT OVERSEAS
Fortunately the Steamships of the World Can Only Bring 1,3o0,ooo a Year to the United States
 Health Undermined.

Washington. Testimony by Com. missioner Wallis of the Ellis Island immigration station that Europe is literally moving to the United States and that flood" of aliens is imminent, left members of the Sen ate Immigration Committee still doubt fu1 as to action upon the Johnson bill prohibiting immigration for one year. Several members frankly expressed doubt whether any measures to stop or restrict immigration will be en- acted at this session of Congress.
 The committee obviously is i'm pressed with Commissioner Wallis statement as to the need for inspec- ton of aliens before leaving Europe and for more rigid examinations after their arrival at American ports. The commissioner recommended particu- larly that facilities be established, overseas for such inspections, and de- clared that 90 per cent of the immi grants arriving under the existing sys- tenn would be denied permission to sail if they were examined at the ports of authorization by American officials. A proper system of examination in Europe and upon arrival, MT. Wallis said, would prevent an imminent flood of these diseased in body and mind.
 Fortunately" he added, "the steam ships of the world can bring only 100000 year to the United States. It is in the limited transportation facilities and increased examinations that we will ge the best protection"
 The commissioner declared reports of the Public Health Service indicated that eastern Europe today "is in the grip of four epidemics- typhus, ty- phofd, dysentery and tuberculosis.
 The war has undermined the health of those countries and their emigrants are dangerous to the public health of the United States, he added.

BoLsHEvIKs ARE MISSED IN FORCE ON BEssARABIAN
 FRONTIER.
FRANCE IS MUCH WORRIED
Red Attack On Roumanla Would Re Mainly Intended To Hasten British Trade Agreement, Is the Be-
 lief in Paris.

Paris.-The French government is concerned over unofficial dispatches telling of the concentration of six new divisions of the Russian Bolshevik army on the frontier of Bessarabia and all along the Dnfester River. The reports indicate that Moscow is pre-. pairing an attack for the purpose of trying to regain the province of Bes. sarabia
 The Roumanian legation in Paris de. clares that the Bolshevik menace, while always at the door of Roumania. is no more acute than for several months past The legation had no con. firmation of the dispatches announc. ing that all Roumanian railway men had been mobilized and that the king was reported to have signed a de. cree calling several classes to the colors.
 A dispatch received from the Rou. mantan foreign minister, M Jonescu, said that all was quiet in Roumania, and made no mention of military pre-. parations or the reported Bolsheyik menace.
 It was explained ar the legation that Roumania was neither at peace nor at war with Russia. In a recent exchange of notes between Roumania and Moscow, the Bolsheyiki denied they intended to move against Rou. mania, but the possibility that the Bolsheviki are making an attempt to take back Bessarabia is not denied blythe Reumanians.
 French official circles would not be surprised at a Bolshevik attack against Roumania, and it is pointed out that such move would have twofold purpose-one to retake Bessa. rabia and the other to hasten a trade agreement with England by display of military force.

RESERVE BANKS
 CALL IN MILLIONS
SHIPMENTS FROM ENGLAND NEARLY BALANCE EXPORTS
 TO SOUTH AMERICA.

ngton.-HoIdings by. Federal Reserve banks of paper secured by government war obligations declined from nearly $1,500,000,o 900 at the open ing of the year to $1,f41 100000 on De cember 31, said the annual review is- sued by the Federal Reserve Board. At the opening of the year" it add ed, @out of $2.719, 100000 of discount ed bills, about 42 per cent was com posed of paper secured by United States war obligations, against CT per cent of total of $2,231, 200, ,000 held on the first Friday of the year.
 The goA1 reserve shows little change at the end of the year as com pared with 12 months earlier. Al though considerable gold was export ed to South America and the Orient early i'll the year, gold shipments from England in anticipation of the maturity of the Anglo-Freneh bonds on October 15 were responsible in a measure for a subsequent recovery, so that on December 30 the amount was only $3,300,000 below the total shown on January 2.
 Increases in capitalization of ex- isting member banks and aeeessions of new members were. responsible in part for an increase in the paid-in cap itaI of the Federal Reserve banks dur. ing the year from $87, ,40o,000 to $99.- 800,000 This corresponds to an in crease of over $411, ,000 in capital and surplus of member banks.
 Changes in the condition of the Fed, eraI Reserve banks during 1920, ae cording to the review, reflect to a large extent the changes in the credit policy originated about the last oi 1919
 Preferential rates on paper secur ed by Liberty bonds and Victory notes" the review said, were abro gated by some reserve banks and rais ed by others to a level more nearly ap proximating the rate level for ordi nary commercial paper Tn the case of paper secured by Treasury certif cates, the rates adopted were in most cases. identical with the higher cou pon rates fixed by the government thus holding out no inducement to the member banks to carry these seeuri ties among their own investments anc use them as collateral for loans at the Federal Reserve banks, but rather providing a stimulus to place them ir the hands of ultimate investors.

u. 5. MAY SOLVE
 CUBAN TANGLE
PRESIDENT WILSON SENDS GEN. ERAL CRoWDER TO WARN IN-
 SuLAR GOVERNMENT.

ington.-Aroused by the fail. ure of the Cuban government to sta btlizie financial and political condi- tions in the island. President Wilson has dispatched Judge Advocate Gener- al Crowder of the army to Havana to confer with President Menoeal.
 General CroWder's mission is in- tended to awaken the Cuban people to a keen realization of the imminenee of American intervention if their gov ernment fails to take the necessary steps to avoid it by remedying the present situation.
 There is reason to believe that Gen. eral Crowder is authorized to intimate to the Cuban president that it will be necessary for the United States to act under the Platt amendment in the event that the financial and political situation in Cuba are not clarified ex- peditiously, especially as there is in- sistent complaint on the part of Amer jeans affected by the moratorium and also as there is possibility of revolution in Cuba should the uncer- tainty concerning the result of the re- cent national election in that country lead the various factions to disregard law and public order.
 The moratorium was recently ex- tended by the Cuban government for another month. It became known that the State Department has reeeiv. ed complaints from all parts of the United States on account of the finan- cial situation in Cuba, because Amer jeans were subjected to hardships.
 The State Department has approved the recommendations submitted to the Cuban president by Albert Rath- bone, who recently went to Cuba as financial adviser to the president of Cuba for the improvement of Cuba's finances, but so far as is known, the Cuban government has not reacted favorably and MT. Rathbone's sugges. tions have not been adequate. It is also understood that they contemplat- ed legislative action by Cuba in order to provide guarantees for the Ameri. can banks which might advance loans to Cuba.

RAILROAD MANAGERS
INCAPABLE B0URBONS

; "1ncompetent bourbons'' is the
singing epitaph applied. to railroad d
managers by Rev. John A. Ryan in
discussing the near-railroad strike in
a social magazine.
Now that the strike is called off,"
he says 1T is in order to congratulate
the officers Of the unions on their
moderation, their public spirit and
their capacity for sacrifice.
ITO the railway heads, no praise
nor credit is due. for they showed
themselves unyielding and as incon-
siderate OF the public as Of their en-
ployes. They are flagrant types Of
incompetent bourbons."
The clergyman called attention 20
the insistence Of some newspapers
that strike against an order Of the
railroad labor board is a violation Of
law.
"a few Of the papers positively
answered in the affirmative, while
others used language to suggest the
same conclusion" he said. This is
wrong; for the Cunmins- -Esch act
merely requires the two parties to
submit dispute to the railroad labor
board; it does not command them to
accept the boards decision.''

1t will be time enough for Judge
Hallam to resign when he. publicly an
nounces his candidacy. Indeed he
might keep his present office with good
grace until after he shall have been
nominated. The late Judge L. c. Col
Inns, when a candidate for governor
of Minnesota, resigned when he became
an active candidate. He lost both Of.
fices. Charles E. Hughes did not re-
sign as associate justice Of the United
States supreme court until after he was
nominated for president by the Repub'
lican convention. Judge Hallam is at
liberty to take either course without

AMERICA OUGHT TO Be.
WOOD GROWING nation

The United States produces more
than half of the entire lumber cut Of
the. world and uses IS per cent Of
that amount right here at home,''
says Col w. B. Greeley, chief Of the
United States forest service
'"The exhaustion Of our timber
supply is coming about not because
we have used our forests freely. but
because we have failed to use our
tim 1ber-growinE land.
I'VE have more than $4,000. 900
acres. an area greater than all the
forests Of France, Belgium, Holland,
Denmark, Germany, Switzerland,
Spain and Portugal, which have, been
dennded to the point of absolute idle
ness so far as the production Of any
timber of commercial value is con-
cerned. We are adding to these
areas of idle or largely idle land from
100000 900 to 15,eO0,0oo acres every
year as destructive logging and still
more destructive burning progress.
, "This situation can not long con-
tinue without grave consequences. If
we are to remain a nation OF wood
users we must become a nation of
wood growers. BY some means or
other we must see to it that forest
lands not needed for agriculture are
not allowed to lie idle, but are kept
at work growing tim ber."

WHERE, rs PINCHOT?

Secretary Of the Interior Fall an
nounces that this administration is
about to "open up' Alaska and as tha
first step in that direction he advocates
turning over to private management
the. railroad on which Uncle Sam has
expended about $4o,000,O00.
BY ''private management" the Sc.
cretary means the Guggenheims, the
smelter magnates. The government
road was projected in order to break
their grip ON the tremendously valuable
national resources Of the territory.
They control the steamers plying be.
tween our western ports and Alaska
and they have. only privately owned
railrod in the territory. Controlling
the means Of transportation, they can
levy toll on North.
If they can now get the government
road their monopoly will be double
riveted, and Alaska will become a
'Guggenheim ''crown colony.''
1t will be remembered that the break
between Taft and Roosevelt was caused
primarily by: the attempt of the former,
through Ballinger, his Secretary of the
Interior to confirm the Guggenheims

ARE OUR THEATERs sArE7

Two weeks ago The Labor World
called public attention to report sub
mitted by the city building inspector
relative to the safety of several NOV:
ing picture theaters in Duluth. W.
then stated that some day fire would
occur, after which there would be: an
angered public demand for the rigid
enforcement Of the building code.
Last Sunday evening a cry of Ffire''
rang through theater in New Haven,
Conn: There was mad rush for the
exits. The narrow aisles held the peo:
pie back and they riadly climbed over
seat backs to reach the nearest exit.
When all was over it was found. tha:
three persons were dead and 70 had
been seriously injured in the rush and
jam.
It is true such loss might be. sus.
taincd in the best protected theater
but should rush be made in any thea
ter we know Of in Duluth there would
be unnecessary loss of life and injuries
to persons because of the narrow aisles.
which. one experiences even now when
moving with an exiting throng.
The city shouldn't wait until fire
occurs, Or until some fool person shouts

GENTLY wide aisles and plenty. of ex-
its. The moving picture busine ess is
attractive and theaters are being in
stalled in long and narrow buildings
without side exits. In ease Of danger
one must either run directly into it or
away from it to get away.

luth show houses careful going over.
In the: face of such warning no pub

theirs. Let it be done.
