period OF 'reha utilization"
The past year was far from the
best the company has ever enjoyed,
it was made clear, but notwithstand-

sufficient TO warrant the dividend
declaration after writing off five per
cent depreciation on all machinery;
10 per cent depreciation on equip
ment; 10 per cent depreciation on
automobile and absorbing a loss OF
$1,000. OF course, all current ex-

all nature and insurance.

THE years business was unusual
ly good in view OF conditions pre-
yailing during the 12-month period"
said a resolution adopted by the di-
rectors at their meeting Wednesday.
The outlook for 1922, in view OF
J. +. Tracey, vice president and
treasurer Of the builders and active
head of the organization, is bright.
1--WE are looking forward to a
period of comparative quiteness dur
ing the first three months but there
after expect n gradual resumption Of
activities" Mr.. Tracey declared. 1--WE
confidently expect that business win
be back to normal by the last quar-
ter of the year.
"By that, / do not mean that acti-
vitles will be as broad as during the
peak period OF the war, but they will
be back to a substantial building and
developing program"
This view was shared by other
members of the organization, who
gave an optimistic outlook for the
coming months.
other features Of the Home Build
ers activities in 1921 included the
work of the planning mill at 430-450
South First street and the auto body
shop, adjoining.
All kinds of cabinet work Is done
at the planning mill as well as regular
mill work. In addition to doing mill
work for local contractors, the or
ganization during the past year has
done mill work for contractors at
Tucson, Prescott. Jerome, Glendale,
Mesa, Chandler and Peoria.
The auto body shop is no little
part of the Home Builders activities.
Since acquiring this shop, by pur-
chase, in 1918. the Home Builders
have constructed more than 1900
specially made truck and auto
bodies.

Lloyd George To
Fight RebelIious
Wing Of Unionists
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON, Jan. 81 - Indications
from yesterdays meeting of the lib
eral conference are that Premier
Lloyd George has decided to fight the
rebellious unionist wing of the coali-
tion which has been trying to force
him to legislate to restore the power
of veto in the house of lords. of which
that house was deprived a decade
ago, mainly through the instrumen-
tality of Mr.. Lloyd George himself.
His exact policy, however, will not
be definitely known until today
when he makes his speech before the
conference.
The election Of Mr.. Lloyd George
and Winston Spencer Churchill, pres
ident and vice-p president respectively,
of the new national liberal council
decided upon by the conference today
is interpreted to mean that the pre-
mier contemplates turning the coali-
tion into a distinctly liberal direc-
tion, hoping thereby to gather into
the ministerial fold all moderate ele-
ments from both parties.

Gently, you can't continue to pour
the scum of Europe into it indef-
nitely and not in the end fill it with
dregs of humanity"
Congressman Albert Johnson of
Washington quotes some startling
figures in support of this idea. He
says:
New York City has doubled hen
population in the last few years. Her
foreign-born population is 1915 per
cent A study of the 1920 census fig
ures made by DIR. Walter Daidlaw,
executive secretary of the New York
City 1920 census committee, shows
that New York City has a foreign
white stock population as large as
the whole population of Chicago, De-
troit and Boston; that the Russian
element is larger than the population
OF Warsaw, and that there are 100,-
600 more Italians there than in Ma
pies. Che leading foreign elements
in New York City in 1920, according
to DR.. Laidlaw, are as follows:
Russian, S94,356; Italian, SO2.-
S93; Irish, 634.744; Austrian and
Hungarian, 602,167; German, $685.
1879 There are 13,92O,692 foreign
born in the United States, according
to the 1920 census. Many of them
are unable to speak English, and
still larger number cannot read it,"
There seems no escape from the
idea that this nation must do one of
three things: Initiate an American
ization program which will really
make Americans out of our large for
eign-born population, restrict immi-
grafton so drastically that only the
higher type of foreigners can get in
to and remain in this country, or be
content gradually to overflow the
melting pot and become a hybrid ma
tion of a hundred nationalities
