Hopkinsville Sales
To Close June II

Hopkinsville, KY, June 4.-Ex-
tremely hot weather and with only
mediocre tobacco offered caused the
local market this week to be devoid
of any unusual features. The selling
season is now in it's last stage and
will close finally on June II, and
remain closed until the new crop is
ready.
Sales for the week were 301,725
pounds, which sold at an average of
1926, or 80 cents below last weeks
average. For the same week last
year the average was $13.40. But
at this time last year the market was
still very active, although prices had
declined nearly $40 on the hundred
pounds from the seasons high mark,
.and weekly sales were running
around a million pounds.
For the season to date sales are
20, 4O6,515 pounds, on which the
average is $1O.42. At the same time
last season sales were 32,198,545
pounds, and the average was $17.28.
Continued dry weather, except in
some localities, still prevents the
planting of the new crop. On Sat
urday of last week a good rain fell
in some sections which afforded a
season. Many farmers waited until
Monday to plant, but some others
took advantage Of the opportunity
by planting on Sunday, one man re-
porting only about One-third Of the
acreage has been put out, and the
cry all over this section is for rain.
Prices this week were unchanged,
ranging from 81 to 50 on Tugs and
Sc to $35 for leaf, with no fine of
fered of either grade. ..

Sanitary Committee
Making Investigation

The sanitary committee represent
ing the board of mayor and alder
men of Dresden, composed of J. l..
Holbrook, w. ]. Jeter and Pete Har-
ris, has been making investigations
Of a number of complained of
places in town the past week.
The committee has prepared a no.
tees which is being mailed out to
property owners where cess pools,
water drains, ETC., that have been
complained Of are located. There
are number of these disease
breeding places in town and the SAM
tary committee has orders from the
mayor and board to have them
cleaned up and to see that provis-
ions are made for taking care of
water waste otherwise than run
ming it out on the ground.
Some Of the places visited are
very unsanitary aid he citizens Of
the town are asked to cooperate
with the committee and the board
in their efforts to guard the
health of this town and COM
munity 1t is urged that slack
ed lime be freely used throughout
the summer months and that breed
ing places for flies be abated at
once.
In some instances it will be ne
cessary to sink wells to do this and
the committee will recommend this
course where they deem it neces-
sary. rtt

cheney. Today our population aver
ages 35 to the square mile.
But it is patent that we have pro-
crossed TO the point where the I'M
regulated flow of immigration is no
longer needed or desired. More
scientific handling of immigration
is demanded now for the most sue
cessful future economic develop
ment Of this and other countries.
There can be no doubt about the
advisability Of negotiating immigra-
ton and labor treaties with foreign
governments to take the place of
the present inefficient and made
quate methods Of control through
consular service and passports SO
as to insure the admittance of only
those immigrants desired and Sc
lected according to standards.
1t would seem equally obvious
that under such treaties it would
he possible to arrive at definite I'M
derstandings with each country in

Of immigrants wanted here, to pro-
vide proper machinery for the regu-
lation Of arrivals and to insure
some cooperation on the part of

1t is quite possible. In fact, that
unless immigrant labor is chtaina-
bile in the proper quantity and quail
ity when needed some American in
dustries may have to set up factc-
ries In countries where labor is
available on basis that will per-
nit such industries to compete with
those Of rival nations. for certain
Of our industries are almost wholly
dependent upon immigrant labor, as
it is impossible for them to obtain
an adequate supply Of native-born
laborers at any price.
Furthermore, this country-the
richest of all in natural resources
is under-developed and under
built. Hundreds of years will
elapse before we will begin to ex-
haust our resources. Reviewing our
resources many years ago, Lord
Macauley estimated that not until
eur population had reached the fig

other countries In seeing that the
right kind of immigrants come.
There are four immigration bills
pending in Congress, including the
johnson, or House Bill; the Dill
lingham and Sterling Bills in the
Senate and the Senate Committee
Bill. The first of these-namely,
the johnson Bill-would prohibit
immigration for one year The. Dill
lingham Bill provides for the limit
ing Of immigrants annually to five
per cent Of the number Of persons
OF their nationality resident in the
United States, nationality to be de-
termined "by country Of political
allegiance" But there Is ambiguity
in this proposed law. If nationality
is determined by the country of al
,legiance foreign born citizens ow-
ing their allegiance to the United
States would not be included.
The Senate Committee Bill would
likewise limit the number Of aliens
Of any nationality who may here
after be admitted to the United
States In any fiscal year to five per
cent of the number of such nation
atty resident in the United States,
nationality in this case, however, to
be determined by the country of
birth. Under the provisions of this
bill the approximate number Of
aliens who would be admissible an
nually from northwestern Europe
would he 337, 600: from the remain
der Of Europe 255, 600 would be ad-
MISSILE, while about $1,000 would
be admissible from the rest Of the
world.
The Sterling Bill considers immi-
grafton not from the single aspect
OF exclusion or restriction, but
from other vital aspects as well. It
would lodge the general control Of
immigration in an immigration
Board, Of which the chairman
would be the Secretary Of La
Dor. After the necessary negoti-
ations with foreign governments
this Board, through its agents
abroad, would investigate all i'm
