BAN ON IMMIGRANT
OPPOSED BY DAVIS
Secretary Says Foreign Pow
ers Can Control Alien Move
ment to u. S.

Belief that the 3 per cent immigra-
tion law. enacted year ago to check
the influx of aliens into the United
States, had outlived it's usefulness.
and that "a radically different pro-
gram for dealing with the immigra-
tiOn problem" must be evolved. was
expressed by Secretary Davis in a
formal statement today.
The restrictive act. Mr.. Davis said.
served very well as a temporary
measure under the conditions reSpon-
sible for it's enactment but "a per-
manent policy should be upon an en-
tirely different basis"

played so important part in the up
building of America, Mr.. Davis said.

he added. 'is. therefore, reposed in
some other government, which may
refuse passports and keep at home
those whom it wishes not to leave
To remedy this situation the Secre-
tary declared he was in favor of a
plan which would empower American
officials at ports of emigration, in
lieu of visa requirements, to subject
aliens to examinations involving men
tai, physical and other characteristics.
Such a plan, he said. would in his
opinion. insure that I'VE get immi-
grants Of constructive type"
Secretary Davis disclaimed any in
tention on the part of his department
to create an espionage system as a
check upon alien residents of this
country. but he was of the opinion. he
said that there should be an annual
census Of the foreign born who are
not naturalized citizens and that an
annual fee. required of each alien.
should be utilized to educate them.
If such a system were inaugurated.
Mr.. Davis added, sit would permit us
to check up on all those who have
violated the law in securing admis-
sion to the United States

Stock Sales on
Dillon Books
Denied by Two
Bankruptcy Trustee Says
Firm Wrote Names of
lFurrier and Lawyer tn
Cover Bucketing Orders
Neither Recalls Trading
Many Thousand Shares,
With Balance i'm Selling
Account, In Their Names

That Dillon & Co., bankrupt stock
brokers, made no distinctions of fact
in picking names TO cover stock trans
actions was adduced at the bankruptcy
hearing yesterday In the Office OF Peter
b. Olney ir., referee, 6s William Street.
Accounts in the books were disclosed,
showing sales Of stocks in the names
Of Eugene f. McGee, lawyer, and Louis
Rifkin, furrier, transactions which both
the lawyer and the furrier denied
knowledge Of, and which Keyes Winter,
the trustee in bankruptcy, charges
were made TO conceal bucketing on
customers orders to buy.
MCGEE formerly was a law partner
Of William j. Fallon, whose name ap-
peared again in the testimony at the
morning session. Rifkin is the furrier
from whom Dandy Phil" Kastel
bought, according to he furrier's
records, Doris Sheerin's s9l0 sealskin
coat. In addition to the stock entries
in McGee's name, the account showed
that checks amounting to $500 had been
charged TO the account Of Eugene +.
McGee, although the lawyer declared
he mad never received any money from
the firm.
Listed Sold for McGee
The stocks listed as sold for McGee
on the Dillon books amounted to many
thousand shares. Some purchases were
also shown, but the balance was heavily
on the side Of sales. MCGEE said that
he had business relations with Kastel,
but that Dillon was no more than an
acquaintance. He denied positively
having had any stock dealings with
either of them. He could not remember
any dealings with w. H. Kelly, the Cen
tury Restaurant Company, on Colum-
bus Avenue, or the Fifty-eighth Street
Restaurant Company, in connection
with Dillon & Co., although he said he
had checks cashed at Reisenweber's
sometimes.
Mr.. Winter selected an item of fifty
shares Of Kansas Southern. McGee
said he had never ordered the purchase
or sale Of these shares. After some
fencing back and forth, during which
McGee tried to recall occasions when
he might have had checks cashed by
Dillon g. Co, Mr.. Winter said;
Would 1t interest you to know that
your name was used to conceal the
purchase of stock made for customers
Your friend, Phil Kastel, was using a
name exactly similar to yours to con-
ceal transactions by which he was
selling the stocks of customers"
Miss Vanderbilt's Check
McGee examined the Endorsement on
check 1880, that eventually found It's
way to Gertrude Vandcrbilt's bank ac-
count, but would not say positively that
it was Fallon's.
The account in the name Of Rifkin
was examined with the aid Of Sam
Goldberg, former Dillon bookkeeper.
Il showed transactions in 14.100 shares
of Alaska and British Columbia Min
ing stock, although Rifkin had sworn
at previous hearing that he never
bought or sold share of any kind Of
stock, merely having sold Kastel the
fur coat and received Dillon & Co.

Prickly Porky Has a Good Meal

--Prickly Porky,

Where could Prickly porky be
going? 1t was plainly to be seen
that he had set out for some particu-
lar place and didn't intend to be
turned aside by anybody. Just as soon
as the young Fox who had been fol-

after Prickly Porky.

Priekly Porky did stop, but it was

Prickly Porky stopped only long
enough to look across that pool. Then
he walked right down the bank and
into the water. The young Foy
couldn't believe his eyes. Once in
the water, Prickly Porky began "a

Washwoman Works for Wealthy Woman Without

a new will. for Mrs. Hix had solemnly
promised it.
Papers Are Stolen
II was remembered that soon after
sacked and some valuable papers sto-

will had been there and perhaps it had
been taken with the other papers. It
couldn't have been any Of Mrs. Hix's
immediate relatives, though, For her
next of kin was an invalid sister, her
self an heiress, and now patient at
the Bloomingdale Sanitarium. Who
could have done 1t?
In the old will $500 was left to
Greenwood Cemetery for burial ex-
penses and caring for the Hix grave.
The cemetery was appointed admins
traitor of the will upon payment Of a
$4,000 bond
That is why the strange case Of Mar
garet Flanery versus Greenwood Gene
terry was brought before Justice Nc
Cook in the Supreme Court yesterday.
The washwoman is suing for $4,000 to
reimburse her for thirty years of do
mestic service, or, as her lawyer. Sam

her clothing and general dometic du-
ties, and for all other work incidental
to and in connection with the forego-

The case was postponed until Octo-

sure she will get her money.
