forced.
Hostility Toward Immigrants.
"The sentiment that is being sys-
tematicaiiy created against immi-
grants as an affront to foreign coun-
tries that provide our immigration. It
is nothing more or less than an effort
to create popular sentiment against
the people Of other lands and to force
the enactment of restrictive measures
through revival of the old dread of
the alien and an open hostility re-
sembling that of the Known 9TH
ings' of little over half a century
ago.
"a campaign of insult and hostility
to the foreign born is under way and
it is making Americanization effort
almost futile. 1t is doing more to
stir up unrest among the foreign
born than any other factor. The for
eign born do not realize that it is only
small section of the native born
population that is raising this cry
against the foreigner and every
thing foreign. They hear themselves
in public meetings accused of all the
evils and they read that they are the
cause of all the troubles that beset
the country. 1t is time that calmer
counsel prevailed. If we must dis
cuss immigration and the foreign
born, then let us discuss them dispas-
sionately and without attacking a
large number Of our own people who
were born abroad or whose parents
were immigrants.
'The Inter-racial Council is not op-
posed to limiting the volume Of i'm
migration to America, If, after con-
scientious and iberal-minded investi-
cation, that step is found to be in
keeping with the best interest Of the
nation.
"Such an investigation should be ind
stituted at once and carried out under
the direction of a non-partisan COM
mission who will look over the field
both in America and in Europe, study
ing the subject from all it's tangles,
scientifically, with a view to evolv-
ing constructive policies. Immigra-
tion is too important subject to per-
nit Of our rushing pell-mell into
program OF restriction without proper
consideration of the consequences of
our legislation.
"The Council commends princi-
Piles of legislation which will consider
selective immigration as one impor-
tant aspect, and yet but a single as
pect, of immigration. It suggests leg
islation that viii provide for the Eff
fective distribution Of immigrants, an
intelligent policy Of assimilation, the
establishment of ploper facilities for
those entitled to naturalization, who
in, large number, find very difficulty
in securing he privilege they have
honestly earned. All these should BE.
integral parts ofsa single nolicy. We
cannot continle to intalpret immigra-
tfon in terms of prejudice and intol-
erance. It is q question for patient
study and investigation, for it Isl
closely bound up not only with our in
dustrial prosperity, but with our civic
and social development as well. J"

1T IS a significant fact that for the
entire fiscal year ended June 3Oth last.
the total permanent increase in the
alien male population Of the United
States was merely 9,877. According
to the analysis of the official figures
Of the Bureau Of Immigration, 10000
more aliens left for than came from
the countries of Europe for that fiscal
period, and the bulk of the total in
crease in our immigrant alien popula-
ton came from Canada and Mexico.
The United States lost 100000 immi-
grant laborers and gained 49,185 skill
ed, 1908 professional people, 12,5OO
farm laborers and $1,000 servants.
"An immigration official. has been
quoted as estimating that the imml-
grants who will come to this country
before January l., 1921, will number
mare than 100000. Yet for the five
months-July, August, September,
October and November of this year
a total of 472,859 immigrants arrived
in the United States, according to the
records Of the Department Of Labor,
and during the same period, 181, sos
persons left the United States. This
leaves balance in favor Of immigra-
ton of 1854 for the five months.
All other statements to the contrary,
notwithstanding, it is made evidens by
these official figures that we will not
have as large net immigration as
during 1914 when the net immigra-
tion was 769,276.
"Ihe method Of computation adopt
ed by some experts is comparable to
that of merchant who counted his
gross sales as net income and consid-
cred neither costs nor overhead.

The following are the figures on
total immigration and total emigra-
ton from July 1st to November 30th

WOMAN INTERESTS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR HOMEMAKER
To Keep
| Yourself Well

Is it possible to get rid of freck-
les on the face? II so. could you
suggest something to me that is alb
solutely harmless to the skin?
Freckles consist OF an excessive
deposit of pigment in the skin.
They are most frequently symme-
trically distributed on those parts of
the body ordinarily exposed to the
light and heat Of the sun, and to at
mospheric influences, such as the
face, the neck. and the backs of the
hands in persons of both sexes.
In some persons. freckles may be
seen on parts not thus exposed, a
fact which indicates that they are
not always the result Of the agencies
noted above.
It is probable that there Is always
a c%ongenital predisposition to pig
ment formations, such as freckles
which require certain external condi-
tons for development.
Freckles have been treated sue
cessfully with a rather stiff needle
connected with the Negative pole of
q galvanic battery.
Most Of the methods employed by
charlatans for the removal of freck-
les depend for their ucces or thor
oughly blistering the surface. While
the new epidemic is free from blem-
ish, the ultimate result is a deeper
and nor persistent fermentation
than that which was previously Wis
ible.
So far as can be ascertained, diet
is not a factor in the production of
freckles.
Pneumonia
How Is pneumonia spread?
Pneumonia Is spread from person
to person by direct and indirect con-
tact.
Directly. through the inhalation of
the fine droplets of germ ladened
mucous sprayed into the air during
coughing. sneezing and loud talking.
Indirectly. through many different
paths, including the use Of common
drinking cups. roller towels. infect
ed food. improperly cleaned eating
and drinking utensils in soda foun-
tains. restaurants. etc.
Malaria in the South
If 1t is true that there were only
$500 deaths from malaria in the
United States in 1919. why is so
much fuss made about the disease
In the southern states?
1t is good to know, as the writer
says, that $50 much fuss Is made
about malaria In southern states"
1t shows a proper appreciation Of
the havoc wrought by this disease.
The economic loss to the state
where malaria seriously prevails,
runs into millions Of dollars. Labor
Is only so per cent efficient. There
is marked physical deterioration
among people living in sections
where there Is much malaria.
The southern communities maxi
ing a fuss about malaria are on the
right track. and deserve help and
encouragement in their campaign
for the control of this scourge.

Editorials For
Women Folks

1t is a serious thing-the fitting of
hats. A poorly fitted chapeau is just
as uncomfortable as a misft pair of
shoes. No matter how beautiful, il
the head size is tight, 1t should not
be considered for a moment, for 1t
foretells woe to milady.
Since the days of pull down" hats
women have been experiencing much
Of this difficulty. Many saleswomen
act on the principle that if the hat
suits. all but the head size. why I
will just put 1t on the stretcher."
And so the sale Is made.
But beware Of the stretcher. For
1t ruins the shape Of the chapeau
and relieves the uncomfortable
pressure not a bit.
When a tight hat is first pushed
down on the head 1t feels, well,
merely a bit snug.
But remember that as you wear 1t
the head size grows smaller and
smaller and ere long deep creases
are branded upon the forehead;
veins will begin to fll and run hot
races through the face.
1t Is then madame will realize the
wisdom of selecting a hat which is
entirely loose when she tries 1t on.
