FLOOD OF UNSKILLED
MEXICAN LABORERS
Menace, SAYS DAVIS
CBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Measures
to control what is said to be a vast
body of alien Mexican unskilled labor
in the United States are recommended
to Secretary Davis in a report by spe-
cial agents of the department of labor
made public today. The report sets
forth that the alien Mexican laborers
illegally in the United States are a
menace to American labor and Amer
lean communities.
recommendation for meeting the
situation are a system of registration,
together with more rigid mental and
physical examination and selective i'm
migration through examination before
entry. 1t is suggested that the en-
forcement of such provisions be placed
under federal control in the hands of
a central body, such as border pa
troll" cooperation with state and mu-
nicipal authorities is also suggested,
not only in the enforcement of Ameri-
can regulations but also in the judi
cial distribution of Mexican labor al
ready in the United States and legally
admitted under the immigration laws.
Tide Sweeps Country
The report indicates that there are
about 416,493 foreign born Mexicans in
Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Cali
fornia and 1882 in II adjacent states.
The tide of Mexican immigration, ii
is declared, is creeping in every dt
rection throughout this country, and
Mexican colonies are springing up in
communities throughout the entire
middle west. The principal outlets
70 rthese Immigrants into the United
States are given as Ell Paso, Eagle
Pass, Laredo and Brownsville, Tex.
Douglas, Naco and Ncgales, Ariz., and
/ Calexico, Calf.
The report says there appears tc
be no reason why Mexican labo,
| should be admitted into the border
states as the legal flow of MexicaT
| immigration will take care of all sea
IsonaI activities if the labor is judicious
! ly distributed.
/ 1t is declared that most of the legal
| ly admitted Mexicans come in as {
| result of the activities of railroad
/ labor agencies and later drift from tht
railroads into other occupations otter
supplanting American Residential
labor.

new SHERIFF OPPOSES
MINE GUARD SYSTEM
(By United Press)

EAST LIVERPOOL, Ohio, Dec. 10:
j. w. Stephens, new sheriff OF
Brooke county, W. Va, opposite here,
succeeding Sheriff H. H. Duval, SLAIN
in a pitched battle with miners at Cliff
tonville July II, will ban the armed
mine guards system in Brooke county.
Men paid by private interests can
not administer the law without pre-
iudice and the practice tends to under
mine democratic government" said
Stephens.
"If the county needs additional
guards I'll hire them, and will not ask
the assistance of outside interests.
There is no law on the statute
books in our state that empowers priv
ate interests to underwrite the civil
liberties of the people"

Defeat of Special
Tax LeUies in Ohio
Embarrasses Cities
CRv Associated Pressl

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 15.-Defeat
of special tax ievies at the November
election has left many Ohio cities fac
ing what is described by some as a
disastrous financial condition, sur
vey today by the Associated Press
showed.
OF the larger municipalities, Cincin-
natl, Toledo, Lima and Youngstown,
are due for the greatest curtailment
in activities. Lima streets have been
going unlighted and uncleaned, and the
police and fire departments have been
cut to skeleton organizations, the re
suit of a defeat of a two-mill levy.
Cincinnati cut its budget for next
years 100000, and still faces a deficit
of $4,000. Appropriations for the po-
lice and fire department each were
slashed 100000.
Sinking fund requirements for To
ledo next year will total $2,000,000
nearly half the city's revenues, and
the mayors budget estimates operat-
ing expense at $650,0OO, above what
will be left after the sinking fund has
| been taken care of.
Turn Down Levy.
! A levy of 1.5 mills was turned down
| by Youngstown voters and that city is
| figuring on deficit of $744, 4,11166 fo1
! 1928
A special three-mile tax levy, voted
/ in 1920 in Columbus, to run for three
years, has enabled city officials there
to pull through this year without any
appreciable deficit, they said.
Many cities will try to replenish
their revenues by levying special
taxes. Toledo is contemplating in
creased licensing taxes and privilege
fees. In Youngstown, garbage collec
tion and street lighting may be
/ charged for.
OF the big cities, Cleveland reports
the best financial condition. 1t viii
start the year with an actual surplus
in the treasury of 100000.

European Diplomats
See New Vigor Added
to League by Turkey
(By Associated Press)

LAUSANNE, Dec. 15-European dip
lomats gathered here believe that the
admission of Turkey to the League of
Nations will impart new yigor and a
new meaning to that organization.
From the beginning of the Near East
conference the Turkish leaders have
stressed their desire to weSterniZe
their country; and European states
men who have faith in the league as
substantial machine contributing eff
| fectiVely to world peace are convinced
that whole-hearted cooperation by
Turkey in the leagues affairs would
prove an important step IN the main
tenance of a general peace.
The thoroughly Occidental aspect of
/ the majority of the Turkish delegates
has impressed every one attending the
/ conference. Some members of the
delegation remain loyal to the fez but
generally speaking the men from An
CORA and Constantinople present an ap-
pearance as smartly western as that of
any of the European diplomats. ...
Wives Attend Session.
Several of the Turkish delegates are
| here with their wives, who are fash
! ionably gowned in the latest Partisan
modes and are the cenetr of interest at
the afternoon teas in the Lausanne no
| tells.
A foreigner who engages a Turk in
! conversation will learn sooner or later
during their chat that Turkey first OF
all wants complete sovereignty over
the Ottoman territory and that second
ly she seeks western culture. In short
Turkey desires to become a real mem
berof the comfy Of nations. If she
joins the league which Ismet Pasha
said yesterday she would seek to do il
peace was signed here. Turkey can
walk into Europe by the front door
and make herself at home.
