Philadelphia.
McAvoy appeared before the House
Military Affairs Committee today in con-

arrivals weresonly limited by the capacity
of ships with Storage passages
IF there were twice as many ships
with Storage accommodations, Wallis
said, 'our years immigration would
easily be doubled. There are 1900, 900
Europeans, I estimate, hoping to come
here. In Poland alone there are 81, 900
passport applications on file. One" doctor
recently returned from abroad said Polish
people were walking from Warsaw to
Cherbourg-a distance of 700 miles
where many of them arrive only with
sufficient money to pay their passage.
I'VE had LOO aliens on three ships
who had less than 81 EACH" continued
Wallis, land LOO who had less than 500"
Ellis Island is greatly overcrowded, -
he said.
INDIVIDUAL
PROVIDES PROBLEM.
Commissioner Wallis said the coun-
try's problem was the individual immi-
grant, the proper selection of him, and
not the total number Of immigrants ad-
mitted to this nation.
There should be a preferential system
Of selecting immigrants abroad and de-
lousing and medical inspection Of them
at the port of embarkatlOn,' he said.
immigration should be kept out Of
politics and administered as an econmic
problem" he asserted. He said the lit
eracy test is futile.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young-to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels-there's no need of
having sallow complexion-dark rings
under your eyes-pimples-a bilious
look in your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a weI-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for ,calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.

store to capital autocratic control of the
workers, B. NJ. Jewell, president OF the
Railway Employees Department of the
American Federation of Labor, charged
In a statement before the United States
Railroad Labor Board.
what Atterbury really means by a
return to the conditions of Dec. 81, 1917,
is the resumption of this autOcratic con-
troll from which tie war has freed US
and which was especially exemplined by
conditions on the Pennsy lvsnla railroad"
Jewell charged that Atterbury's appeal
for ahrogation of rules and request
for permission to cut wages of railroad
Iaborers were timed with a view to
stampeding the board into taking a posi-
ton on the matter.
PURPOSES OF
APPEAL SET OUT.
+ The appeal. according to Jewell. which
was made just when the entire case Of
the management had been presented to
the board, was designed also to:
Convince the public that high freight
rates fundamentally due to past fnan-
eial Irregularities and efficiencies of rail-
read management should be attributed
to present organizations of railroad en-
ployes.
Obtain from the board a recognition Of
the railroad arrangements contention that
the Governments war policy had led to
a decrease in the efficiency of employees
in order to use this later to wiring from
the railroad administration full pay
ment Of the exorbitant claims which the
railroads are making.
Sound a note of warning to railroad
employees, carrying with it a threat that
unless they came meekly begging for
local adjustment of conditions imme-
date Iay-offs would follow, coupled with
pressure for a reduction in all wage
rates.
THREE-FoLD
OBJECT.
"Atterbury had a three-fold object in
view" said Jewell. This was:
q. He attempted to destroy the foun-
dalton upon which the board rests by
making it render a decision, based en-
tirely upon exparte evidence of one side.
90 He has dealt in the most bare
faced hypocrisy in his promise to use
his influence to prevent requests for wage
reductions when he knows that abroga-
ton of certain rules in the national
agreements would mean nothing less than
reduction in earnings, and,
IS. He has abused the courtesy of
the board in granting him an opportunity
to speak by using that privilege in vain
" attempting to cOerce the employees Of
the roads into accepting the autocratic
conditions which he proposes by threat
ening them with lockout, If the ulti-
matum which he lays down is not imme-
diately accepted"
ASKS POSTPONEMENT
OF CONSIDERATION
Jewell asked the board to postpone
further consideration of the appeal of
Gen. ". W. Atterbury, representing the
roads, for immediate abrogation Of ma
tlOnal agreements and to proceed TO hear
the evidence the unions will present to
back up the charge Of conspiracy.
This conspiracy aims at the disrup-
ton Of the legitimate organizations Of
the workers OF the country and the in

of the organization and the party leaders
in attempting to emasculate the law will
bear the administration stamp and what
ever onus attaches to the move will be
placed on the Governor.
The bitterness that marks the battle In
certain sections has resulted in bringing
out State convention secrets. The revela-
ton, which came from reliable sources,
shows that the dominating factors in the
move to knock out the law were Senators
New and Watson.
Prior to the State convention, It will
be recalled, State Chairman c. NJ. Was
muth named an advisory committee to
draft a tentative platform. When the
platform committee met the night before
the convention a complete platform de
vised by the advisory committee was pre-
scented.
The platform trainers went down the
list of planks, accepting one here, amend
ing another there, and knocking out still
others until they came to the one on the
primary.
DEADLOCK WAS
IMMINENT.
Jesse Green, editor Of the FIT. Wayne
News Sentinel, stood for a straight out
repeal plank. Mr. Toner desired the pri-
mary system Endorsed, and there the
committee locked horns. The battle
would have gone on indefinitely had not
the threat of a minority report from the
pro primary adherents forced the COM
mittee to compromise by admitting the
advisory committees plank. 1t was
agreed, according to reports, that the
committees should interpret the plank as
favoring the correction of the present
primary law. Mr.. Toner ever since has
taken that stand,
1t is declared by the proponents of the
primary that the plank, however, was
written at the dictation of the two Sena-
tors, who hoped through its lack Of clar-
ity to bring about repeal of the law as
a party measure. If 1t had not been for
the agreement reached by the platform
committee, 1t is said, there would be no
contradiction of the Interpretation that
the plank does call for the death Of the
law.

YOUTH TELLS COPS
TALES OF HOLDUPS
Surrenders to Sleuths, Saying
Georgia Wants Him.

Mark Palmer Haywood, 10, surrendered
to Detectives Radamacher and Peats to-
day and told a story of having been a
member Of a gang of hold-up men who
robbed a bank at Swanee, Ga. The de-
tective department has started an inves-
tigation.
Haywood said he lived at Alkharetta,
Milton County, Ga, and he said that two
weeks ago he and two other young men,
Carroll Williams and Tom James, held
up and robbed a bank at Swanee. He
said they obtained $1,000 and made their
escape in an automobile. When about
fifteen miles from Swanee, he said, the
pursuers were getting too close and they
deserted the automobile and ran into the
woods. Williams, he said, was caught.
The other two escaped.
Haywood said he was under a $1,000
bond signed by his father pending court
action in another case. Haywood is with
out money.

WALL Lake PARK
| Seems ASSURED
Sportsmen Get Flat Promise
from Executive COun-
Gil to Condemn
Land.
NEED SMALL SUM YET
Will Balk Alleged Attempt
to Corner Shore
Tract.

A state park for spOrtsmen is prac-
tically insured at Wall Lake according
to what is interpreted as flat promise
by the executive committee for action
in behalf of sportsmen to block an al
legged attempt to corner lake shore prop
erty and convert the place into pri-
vate grounds. A committee of men
from Iowa Falls and Alden waited on
the executive committee recently and
it is said that at this time the execu-
tive body agreed to condemn for park
purposes such land as those interested
in the park could buy. It was estimat-
ed some time ago that $500 would be
needed to purchase the desired site and
this sum is practically assured.
Only about $500 is needed from Web
ster City sportsmen to complete the
total. The Webster City Hunting Club
has already pledged $500 and substan-
tial subscriptions have been made by
Williams, harrisburg, Alden, Iowa
Falls, Ames. Grundy Center. Ackley,
Woodstock, Belmond, Bows and other
places.
Definite action in the near future
seems assured. A state park on Wall
Lake, it is said, assures further i'm
movements in roads, flowing Wells and
dredging, and precludes the possibility
of the lake being drained.
