REGULATING IMMIGRATION

There can be no question that, as has been often
suggested, our immigration laws should be based on
selection rather than on restriction. We are not
likely to be; embarrassed by a flood of immigrants
|of the right type. With the selection properly
made we could we'll afford to throw down the bars
SO far as numbers are concerned. The difficulty is
to devise a ~selective law that will work properly,
and in the absence Of such a law we have no pro-
lection save in restriction.
The present law provides that immigration to
the United States from any one country shall be
limited to the admission each year of three per
who have Come from the country in question. That
law has its defects. But defective as it is in some
particulars it is the best that has yet been devised
for our purposes, and it must neither be abandoned
nor hastily changed.
The law as it stands is a ~selective law. 1t con-
tains no provision that the three per cent from any
country shall be admitted, regardless of quality. It
is not selective enough, and it needs to be improved
in that direction. ,rFf>
What this country needs just noW in the way
immigration is a lot of people of the right char
of certain classes. We need more people on the
land. We do not need more residents of the con-
gested districts of the great cities.
People coming to this country from most of
the countries of western Europe distribute them
selves generally. They are accustomed to the kind
of work which is needed in the development of the
country. We have room for all who are likely to
apply. Those from southeastern Europe are in
.clined to gravitate to the great cities, and there they
merely increase the size of great and unassinilated
populations which are already far too large. The
law needs to be changed in such a manner as to ad-
NIT more of those who are needed and to exclude
more of those who are not.

The dispatches say that there is prospect of the
admission of Turkey to the League of Nations if
the negotiations at Lausanne result i'll. the conclu-
sion Of peace. The transition from the status
which Turkey has occupied to that of fu1l-fedged
membership i'll the League of Nations would be a
rather startling one, but things as strange have hap
pened. In the arrangement there is room for the
suspicion of the guild pro quo. Turkey wants recog-
milton as a sovereign member of the family of ma
tons. She has resented the position of guardian
ship to which she has been subjected by the other
powers: The other powers demand certain things
of Turkey. The present apparent willingness of
Turkey to concede in principle the more important
OF these demands have been induced iii part by the
suggestion that after this pending settlement is
made her application for membership in the League
will be f~avorably considered, and that as a member
of the League she can with good grace submit to
activities of the League which would have heen in
~tolerably humiliating otherwise. n
Turkey can scarcely be said at this time to be,
desirable timber for a partnership. But Turkey is
there, and is likely to remain for some time. Her
existence involves problems which must be met. 1t
may be possible to deal with those problems more
satisfactorily if Turkey has bound herself to civil
ization by compacts such as those which members
of the League make with each other. ~

PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION.

The people who began to shape the policy OF
Russia after the only moderately representative
body that ever figured in Russian affairs had thrown
off the old czarist-bureaucratic system was inter-
rupted in its work of establishing a really popular
government by the violent seizure \of the govern
ment by an armed minority placed emphasis first on
the distribution of wealth. They proceeded on the
assumption that there was plenty of wealth in the
country, but that it was improperly distributed.
They undertook to correct this defect by taking
from those who had, with the general understand
ing that the proceeds were to be given'to those who
had not.
In one respect the plan was successful. It
worked to perfection in taking away property from
those who had it. 1t approached 100 per cent in
efficiency, for most Of those who had owned prop
giving to those who had none there was some
where a flaw in the program. In a few instances
individuals were raised from perjury to affluence,
but the great mass of the population was left worse
off than before.
The experience of Russia has afforded a pretty
conclusive demonstration that a people cannot ex-
list long, or in any satisfactory manner on what was
accumulated last year, or in all the years that have
gone before. The ~accumulations Of mankind are
in the aggregate considerable. But when measured
by the needs that arise from day to day among all
the millions who inhabit the earth, they are of very
slight account. Let the people stop producing and
these apparently vast stores speedily disappear, and
the people are again face to face with the problem
of providing for their daily needs by their daily
labor.
The distribution Of the products of our activi-
ties is an exceedingly important thing. 1t is i'm
portant that in the division no one shall receive
more or less than his just share, so far as that equit-
able share can be determined. 1t is important that
waste shall be eliminated, and that processes be not
multiplied without constructive purpose.
But when all that is done, when waste shall
have been reduced to the minimum, and when the
share which each receives shall be Justly proper
toned to the value of the service which he performs,
man would starve to death unless attention were
given to. that4thing which must precede distribu-
ton. the production of something to distribute.
The 2roblern>o Of the age is tless one of distribu-
ton than Of production, and this is said in full rec
a~ognition Of the fact that there are millions who are
in need while a few have a superabundance. The
great submerged masses are submerged, not be-
cause they have produced abundantly and have
been robbed of the result of their labors, but be-
cause they have not received or responded to the
training which would make them efficient produc-
ers,, delivering the maximum, in quantity and quail
sity with the minimum expenditure Of effort, and
directing their energies intelligently toward the en-
hancsment Of their own 3well-being.

WHITE PLAGUE SIGNALS.

DR.. Lawrason Brown says in the
tuberculosis number of Common
wealth hat consumption should be
suspected whenever a person gives a
history Of any of the following:
Splitting Of blood. Blood splitting in
any amount, no matter how little,
should suggest consumption. Bleed
heart disease should not be included in
the splitting of blood which causes
consumption to be suspected.
Pleurtsy with effusion. Not every
case of pleurisy with effusion Is due to
tuberculosis, but such q large proper
ton of them are (about 60 per cent?.
Every case should be looked on with
suspicion. =
Cough. Cough always suggests
some involvement of the lungs. Any
coughs or cold which persists for more
Of consumption. Particularly Is this
true when the cause Of the cough is
not apparent to the layman. If there
fore an unexplained cough hangs on,
1t should cause suspicion. If there is
9 very good explanation of the cough,
the very fact that 1t hangs on should
cause an investigation Is to consump-
ton. .a
More than once has it happened
that a man with asthma has let con-
sumption progress to an uncurable
stage because he thought his asthma
sufficiently explained his cough. Like
wise with coughs due to cigaret
smoking. heart disease, and chronic
nose disease.
