AMERICAN MILLS PAY AMERICAN BILLS.

DURNG the fiscal year ended June 30, 1921. Great Br-
~ tain was the heaviest buyer Of American COTTON
Germany second, France third and Japan fourth
Under existing tariff laws much Of this cotton could be
manufactured into clothing by foreign labor and shipped
back 10 the United States.
II our own mills inadequate In capacity or our
workers too few we would have objection to this be-
ing done but there lot of mills working at less than
capacity and there are several million men out Of EN-
poyment
The mills paying heavy American taxes
That being the case is the part Of wisdom to impose
tax on goods manufactured abroad offered for sale
in the United states and all Deawareans should stand for
that policy.

 ALIEN FLOOD ID J. ]. |S PLANNED
Rules More Drastic Than Proposed In Johnson
 Bill Are Favored

WASHINGTON. Feb. l0.-Restric- tions on immigration. said by com msttee members to be more drastic than those proposed in the house or Johnson bill. are contained in an emergency measure approved and re. ported today by the senate immigra. ton committee. The measure decid- ed on as a substitute for the bill passed several weeks ago by the house would become effective April 2 and continue in force only until July 30, 1922.
 During that period. senate leaders are confident permanent immigration legislation will be enacted and in the meantime, the predicted flood of aliens would be stopped.
 The bill. as reported, would limit immigrants admitted annually from any country to five per cent of the nationals of that country in the United States when the 1910 census was taken. The measure, however. provides that it shall mot be con strued as amending, repeating or mod flying any law or agreement which forbids the admission of any alien of any nationality or geographical boun- dary." This provision was interpret ed to mean treaties existing between the United States and China and the United States and Japan would not be affected.
 Senators tonight pointed out the principal differences between the Johnson bill and the senate measure. The latter, they declared. would ex- clude more aliens than the Johnson hill. 30O.OO0 being estimated as the minimum number of admissions in the first ls niCnths of the measures existence. Admissions of relatives and dependents. authorized by the house measure, they said. would more than equal the number of all entries under the senate bill.
 Any difference between the two bills was pointed to in the provisions for determining what class of immi- grants would be admitted. The house voted to treat all nationalities alike. The apparent disposition in the sen ate is to legislate only against Euro pean immigrants.

LONDON. Feb. 1O.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-The Russian Soviet government has notified Lithuania that it will be considered a definite act of hostility by Lithuania if a league of nations army is allowed to occupy the Wilma district pending the plebiscite, according to a report The report is considered as constituting |, definite BolShevik threat against the military authority of the league of nations.
 The Soviet warning is a result Of Poland's appeal for league troops at Wilma, on the plea that the forces of General ZellsOuski, insurgent leader. have been disbanded on the request of the league of nations and that the three Lithuanian armies now on the borders will occupy the district and render an impartial plehiScite inn possible.
 Dispatches from Riga express the fear that the Soviet authorities are the Wilma situation as an excuse for action against Lithuania and the Baltic states.
