Problem Must Be Re-
moved From Class Leg
islatiOn and Partisan
Politics
BY FRANCIS II. SISSON
Viee-President. Guaranty Trust
Company Of New York

II Under the stress OF multi
tarlous postwar problems
the American people have
sailed to give due consideration 10
one OF the most vital of all these
problems. namely. immigration.
But The time has come when a sane
and sound national policy must be
formulated. when we must cease TO
think OF immigration from the view
point OF eNpediency and emergency.
and think about 10 from a broad,
fundamental standpoint
The World War woke some Of
our dreamtrs from their SNUG de-
fusion OF Americas splendid $50
latiOn' and established conclusivelv
that all the nations Of the world
are economically interdependent.
We should not forget that the
causes OF that war sprang largely
from economic sources and ambi-
lions We should also remember
that there can be no permanent
peace until there IS sterilization OF
economic condition throughout the
world. Consequently, the problem
of immigration, which is chiefly an
economic problem, must be consid-
cred IN its true significance as a
paramount international issue Il
must be removed from the handi-
caps and dangers OF class legisla-
ton and partisan politics and con-
structively solved BY international
economic craftsmanship
Ii has wisely been observed that
what America needs IS not more
technical regulations, not the ex-
tension OF hardships, not the cree
tion of barriers based on temporary
expedients, but a racial inventory
and formulation of policies, with
such general powers as Will enable
the Government TO meet any situa-
ton as it arises. We need above all
"A policy of assimilation which will
cover the reception, distribution.
and adjustment OF immigrants after
arrival so we can really ascertain if
we have assimilated the immigrants
who have entered, with a view to
determining how many we may
wisely admit"
believe that il is generally rec
ognized and conceded that the
United States would not and could
not have been as fully developed
and as powerful as It is today IL it
had not drawn so literally upon
the populations OF Europe as it has
IN the past. We must. in fact.
acknowledge our great economic
debt 10 immigration.
II IS quite possible, in fact, that

unless immigrant labor is obtain
able in the proper quantity and
quality when needed some Amer
lean industries may have to set up
factories III countries where labor
IS available on a basis that will per
nit such industries 10 compete with
those OF rival nations, for certain OF
our industries are almost wholly de-
pendent upon immigrant labor. as
II Is impossible for them 10 obtain
an adequate supply OF native-born
laborers at any price. The first re-
sponsibility of American industry to
itself and 10 the nation is 10 make
sure that II has a sufficient supply
of labor TO maintain production with
fair margin OF profit, and at the
lowest possible price TO the con-
sumner.
But it is patent that we have pro-
gressed to the point where the un-
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.
We must find the means TO accom-
phsh the efficient economic as
Similation of immigrants. Therefore.
any constructive legislation must
deal not so much with restriction as
with selection. and any proper Sc
lective method will require the ser
vices of officials abroad. which in
turn will necessitate arrangements
with other countries to permit such
officials to conduct their investi-
cations
But legislation alone can never
effect the desired assimilation of
immigrants. although it may help
very materially by providing the
means TO control immigration by
selection at It's source. The solu-
ton OF the assimilation problem.
however, lies largely in the eco
nomiC cooperation with immigrants

that which appertains 10 my own

the closer cooperation of our bank
ing interests with the immigrant.
There should be adequate legisla-
ton 10 supervise immigrant banks
dong an interstate business, 10
safeguard immigrant deposits and
eliminate competition from ire
sponsible sources. The national
and state banks should establish
foreign departments, ir charge Of
trusted persons speaking the i'm
portant foreign languages of the

meet the personal needs of immi-
grants during their process OF adj
Justment. There should be sys-
tematic publicity campaigns organ
lied to reach immigrant wage
earners. with special emphasis
placed on the protection afforded
to these wage-eaTners by American
banks. There should be adequate
legislation to provide for the regis
tration of farm land offered for
sale, to prohibit misleading adver-
tisements and fraudulent interstate
transactions. There should be CO.
operative arrangements with in
dustrIes that would help TO intro
duce the immigrant who is usually
shy of American banking institu-
tons. This could involve the pay
ing of bonuses through banks. the
developing of credit for housing and
similar realty investments. There
should be developed cooperation
between our banks and the forty or
more large foreign trade organiza-
tons doing business in this coun-
try and having considerable COM

races. There should be established

WAGE REDUCTION E BROADENED
 UNTIL VIRTUALLY ALL WORKERS
 ON RAILROADS LOSE F PER GENT
Associated Press Night wire2

CHICAGO, June p. - Employes
 on virtually every railroad in the country will feel the F per cent wage reduction ordered by the United States railroad labor board to
 take effect July following a sup plemental decision today extending the order to nearly 100 additional roads.
 The wage slash authorized by the board on June to take effect next Friday originally contemplated lO4 railroads, although not all employees were affected on all roads. Todays addition to that decision included 2l0 roads, many of which were parties to the original decision but which returned to ask reductions for classes of their employees not covered in the first order
 The reductions authorized today are identical with those of the orig inal order, the only change being the addition of rates for marine workers in certain harbors and of a section covering restaurant and dining car employees whose wages were ordered reduced by 60 per cent of all in- creases received since February 29 1920.
 With the exception of a few sub sidiary lines whose parent owners filed petitions for reductions, every railroad in the country affected by decision No. ?, the labor boards wage award of July, 1920, now has been authorized to reduce wages an average of F per cent Most of them have received such permission for all classes of In addition nearly two score other roads which voluntarily lpplied the increased scale fixed by he board in 1920 also have received to make a similar cut.

Anxiety Felt Here

Reports of the fire were on the street yesterday afternoon and a number of requests for information came to the Journal-Miner from rel atives of persons living in Oatman. Dr. E. A. Swenson, whose parents were at the camp, exhausted every means to obtain information and was finally informed by Sheriff w. P. Mahoney that his father and mother were safe.
 There is no telephone line from Prescott to Oatman, and the West ern Union line is circuited about through California and it was diff cult to obtain news.
 The Journal-Miner is indebted to the dispatcher's office at the Santa Fe for its early reports, which con veyed comforting assurances to sev- eral who had friends and relatives at the burned town.

Half the normal capacity of the pipe is all that is available from this source, he said, and be- cause the fall is only so feet, there IS no particular "head" to the water
 In the doctors opinion, this was undoubtedly one reason why the fire should progress so rapidly and so far. Another is that the buildings of frame are huddled close together often passageways being only wide enough for an automobile
