HOUSE VOTES TO EXTEND
IMMIGRATION MEASURE
TO NEXT FISCAL YEAR
Nationwide Demand for Such Action
Opposed by Aien-Owned Steam
ship Lines.

Washington, Mar. b.-By q vote OF
2S1 to &c, the House of Representa-
tives passed resolution extending the
present restrictive immigration law to
June so, 1928. The present law ex-
pires june 30th, next This action of
the House was in response to a demand
from all parts of the United States
and all classes of citizens for either
the extension of the present act or the
enactment of law even more drastic
that would be practically prohibitory
of all immigration.
The present law limits the number
of immigrants tTCm any one country
during any one fiscal year to three
per cent of the nationals of that coun-
try who were in the United States
when the census Of 1920 was taken.
The beneficial results Of such restric-
ton were disclosed on the floor Of the
House by Representative johnson, of
Washington, sponsor of the bill. I'M
migrants are arriving at the rate of
only 1900 a week, whereas prior to
the enactment of the present law the
average number Of immigrants in nor
NAL times was $1,000 a week. Under
the first eight .norths operation of the
law only 10000 immigrants were ad-
mitted to the United States. At this
rate the total number of immigrants
for the fiscal year ending June 30th
will be n little less than 100000. Dur
ing the year Immediately prior to the
enactment of this law S05,0 900 immi-
grants were admitted.
1t was brought out during the de-
bate, and it is shown by the records
of the Department of Labor and other
governmental agencies, that opposi-
ton to the extension of the immigra-
ton act centers largely around alien
owned steamship lines. These steam
ship lines have sscerage capacity of
100000 a year. The profit which
they make from their steerage traffic
is their greatest item of profit. Prac-
tically all of the violations of the i'm
VI
individual hardships which were ex-
perienced as result of that law, have
been due to the foreign-owned steam
ship companies. They have resorted
to every device, first, to violate the
law and, then, TO break it down and
bring it into disrepute.
Since it became evident that, in re-
sponse to an overwhelming popular
demand in the United States, there
would be either an extension of the
present law or the enactment of one
even more drastic, foreign-owned
steamship companies have been con-
ducting a campaign to evadc the law
by carrying European emigrants to
points in Cuba and Mexico. From
these points it Is comparatively easy
TO smuggle immigrants into the Unit
ed States because Of the small patrol
which the United States has for the
Gulf Coast and American border.

Notice to Taxpayers

In an effort 70 cut down expenses,
it has been decided to try out in this
county the plan adopted by other
counties in the State for assessment
work this spring; viz, the assessor
will appoint day on which he or his
deputy will meet the taxpayers at the
various school houses throughout the
county, where they can list their prop
erty with him, or send in their list
by neighbor if It is not possible for
him to be there in pedson. We arc
trying out this method on all terri
tory South of the river, for, if the
plan works out successfully and the
assessment work car be handled in this
way, it will mean big saving yearly
of the taxpayers money. I believe,
too, this method will give more uni
form assessment, and, with he Coop
Grafton of the ta> payers should work
out very satisfactorily.
