AMERICANS MASTER
FAMINE IN RUSSIA
Only a Few Districts in Real
Want, Says Haskell.

In a report to American Relief Ad-
ministration headquarters In this city
Col. william ~ Haskell. director OF the
Russian unit OF the American RELIEF
Administration, states that the Amer
ican Relief Administration has the
famine situation under control and that
there is no further need for worry ex-
cept In few districts which Will be re-
lieved within six weeks.
Among the districts in need OF vigor-
Gus relief are the southern Ukraine and
the Crimea along the borders OF the
Black Sea. Col. Haskell believes that
the program Of feeding 100000 children
and an equal number OF adults In these
districts Will meet the situation.
Col Haskell. In telling Of an inspec-
ton trip through the lower Volga re-
gion, the Don country. the Crimea and
the Ukraine. says that everywhere he
found the Relief Administration In con-
troll OF the supplies. with general CO.
operation by the Soviet authorities. He
finds that with the opening OF the Volga
to navigation the railroad congestion
was being relieved with the consequent
more energetic handling OF transporta-
ton by the railroads. At each place
he visited the people testified their grati-
tude TO America for help.
Col. Haskell also says the delivery OF
food packages purchased In the United
States by relatives and friends Of needy
Russians Is being rapidly accomplished.
In one day In Odessa during the time
he was there more than 1000 packages
were delivered TO the beneficiaries In
his presence. He adds that he saw no
evidence of any foreign relief operations
other than those being carried on by
Americans.

back because of exhausted quotas.
Debarred for all causes In eleven
months were 1856, which / believe is
the record. and is still not enough.
Too many diseased. demented and de-
fective are being admitted.
"The law has been extended and
during the coming year will be rigidly
enforced. I believe Congress would
be justified in amending the law so as
to give all countries base quota OF
about 600, and in addition thereto not
to exceed 2 per cent. of the number
of aliens in the United States as shown
by the census of 1910. That would
lessen the difficulties arising from
small quotas now given to certain
countries and would decrease the large
quotas awarded to other countries.
Would Admit Only EliGibles.
II believe that all quotas should
consist only of persons eligible to cit
izenship under our present naturaliza-
ton laws. An amendment to that eff
feet would end the difficulties which
arise from our 'gentleman's agreement
with Japan. There is no reason why
we should admit to become residents
Of the United States persons who
never can become citizens of the
United States.
Many persons wonder why the per-
centage restriction law has not been
frightened up and made more binding.
Some ask why Congress has not en-
acted a law completely suspending
immigration for a period of years.
Let me remind all of these questioners
that it took more than twenty-five
years of continuous effort to get a
law even as restrictive as the three
per cent. act.
Each and every bill designed really
to restrict immigration passed by Sem
ate and House from the first days OF
the administration Of Grover Cleve-
land to the last days Of Woodrow Will
son was vetoed for some reason or
other-usually because the proposed
law interfered with that nonsensical
notion that the United States was al
ways to be the asylum for the OPP
pressed of the world.
Law Came Just in Time.
'The 3 per cent act ended the asylum
idea just in time to prevent the United
States from becoming the almshouse. OF
the world (run by its inmates) and i
desire to give full credit to the members
OF the House immigration Committee,
of which I have the honor to be chair
man. for sticking to the Idea of restric-
tion, and for forcing forward bill which
refused to die until 1t was superseded
by the Dillingham; act. which both
houses passed and which President Har-
ding signed. .4
II hold the firm belief that the United
States will never go back to any scheme
that will welcome the uncounted MILL
ions Of the four corners of the world to
our young. new country, in which. with
its billions of acres of land and re-
sources yet untouched, fathers and
mothers are even now lying awake
rights wondering what Is to become Of
their children
Under the Dillingham; act the gates OF
the United States are now closed and
have been closed for several months to
the following countries: All African
lands, Atlantic Islands, Australia. Bel
gium, Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary. Italy,
Jugo-Slavia, Luxembourg. other Asia.
other Europe. Palestine, Poland, New
Zealand. Rumania. Switzerland, Syria,
Turkey and the Smyrna district.

Balloon Filler Uses Radio.

One of the significant features of the
national balloon race which started
from Milwaukee May 81 Is the fact that
the winner of the race, Major Oscar
westover, II. S. Air Service, was the
only entry to use radio.
By means of a General Electric re-
ceiving set. Major Westover received
special weather reports from broadcast
ing stations as he drifted away from
Milwaukee. Presumably these reports
enabled him to work his ship into favor
ing wind currents at various attitudes.
At any rate. the pilot managed to travel
$50 miles from the starting point, land
ing 900 miles north of Quebec, at Lake
st. Jean.

Handling seaplanes is always a vex-

istry appears to have taken a step tow
ard solving the difficulty.
A floating dock for this type of air
craft has been designed and berthed in
the Midway, near Port Victoria. The
dock. which has lifting capacity of 200
tons, Is 143 feet In length and can take
care OF two huge seaplanes. The rails
ing of the dock is accomplished by the
use of thirteen compartments which may
be flooded direct from the sea and

which then became an established fact,
was the end sought by those with the
vision. How could The Star-Spangled
Banner" attempt to express the loft,
generous spirit which the nation
reached and which is so nobly de-
scribed by Washington? When the
war was over, there was no spark Of
petty venom or resentment left; on the
contrary, all was friendliness and
justice.
Washington said:

To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir; In your editorial regarding the
coal strike. entitled Drastic Action
Soon" you state The public be
damned" seems 10 be the attitude Of
both sides In the coal strike The
miners reject some parts OF the Presi-
dents settlement proposal; the op-
orators reject others.
Is that statement quite eorrect7 In
your report Of ihe anfwers submitted
by the operators 10 the President, as
written by Carter Field, you state that
all Of the operators subscribe broadly
to the proposal to arbtrate and that
the majority Of districts represented
IN tho conference accepted the Presi-
dents proposal Internationally.
The whole strike situation. the coal
as we'll as the railroad strike. amounts
TO organized labor making desperate
stand 70 resist the return 70 industrial
normally by hCht.ng with every method
possible any cuts in wages. The rail-
road unions as we'll as the miners
unions undoubtedly are the two largest
and best organized unions in the
country, and II they lose in their fight
the cause Of labor unionism will sufIe;
Z great defeat. and that is why such a
desperate stand Is made by them.
Is II not a fact. that the men Of these
two unions are still receiving wages far
in excess Of those received By other
workers and that their wartime wages
have hardly been reducedl High
wages Will result always in high cost
Of living. especially in the coal in
dustry and railroad labor. The price Of
coal and cost of'freight Is represented
In every article we use. wear, in our
food, in our electric light, gas, etc. !
dare say. there Ia not an article we
come In contact with. which has not
been produced In some part or other
with coal or has been carried By rail
road transportation NJ one stage or
other in It's manufacture.
The average layman does not realize
that a ton Of GOOD bituminous steam
coal cost prior 10 the beginning OF ihe
strike S225 a, the mines, while the
freight on this same coal was S3.ii 10
the New York tidewater piers. In
other words. il cost more 70 transport a
ton Of coal 70 New York than the coal
itself cost at the mines. do not know
what proportion Of the above cost Of
transportation Is expended for labor.
but II is statistical fact that SIS per
cent Of the above cost Of coal is ex-
pended by the operator on wages alone
not speaking Of other expenses Of
mining.
We have often heard statements by
the various union officials that the
