It will be the first time the nonparti-

The speakership of the house is

to be the favorite, according to some

that Mr.. Twitchell would be better

Unjust Criticism of u. S.
Immigration Service

|: Washington, Dec: 28, (Capital
News Service)-The recent protest
Of the British Ambassador against
Ellis Island methods was promptly
met by the Secretary of Labor with
an invitation to visit, with him, the
American gateway through which i'm
migrants pass, and see for imself that
the twisted sentimentality of those
who rush into print with criticisms
Of the Immigration service is un-
warranted. '-
/ A very sever criticism was recent
lily registered with the department re-
garding the deportation Of one men,
Der Of an immigrant family and the
retention of the rest of the family OH
these shores. Friends Of the de-
ported immigrant, a young woman,
went so far as to take here off her
ship returning her to, her port Of
embarkation by means of a writ Of
|habeas corpus. In a public letter,
Secretary of labor Bavis-reveals"that
the deported alien was afflicted with
highly dangerous and contagious
disease, and that the law specific
ally provides that none such be ad-
mitted to American shores. =, #
immigration service officials must
necessarily harden their: hearts, it is
Epointed out, against appeals made on
the grounds of sentiment alone when
they enforce the laws regarding The
admission of, diseasesf immigrants:
Doubtless many hardships are work:
ed on families which must separate
at Ellis Island, but the fault is not
with the service,. which does but en-
force the laws provided by Congress
The proposal to more drastically ex-
anime all immigrants at ports Of en-
barkation is: favored by immigration
officials, who believe such a measure
Would largely > prevent hardship on

comply with the law, and would
leave space open on both ships and in

President Declares Passage of
Amendment is Undesirable
At Present Time
MIGHT NOT BE FAVORED
BY EUROPEAN NATIONS
Says Congress Should Modify
Participation Laws If
1t Wants to Help

Washington, Dec. l2S-President
Harding's administration is opposed
to the passage in the senate of the
Borah resolution requesting the ex-
ecutive to call an international eco
nomic and arms limitation confer
ence.
The president declared that the
passage of the Borah resolution was
undesirable because of the false i'm
preston which may be conveyed to
Europe, and even more undesirable
because of the wrong impression it
conveys to all people. This position
was explained in letter to Senator
Lodge, administration leader in the
Senate; which Lodge read to the
Senate when it met today.
1t will be futile to call such a con-
ference as proposed by Senator Bor-
ah until the executive has learned
whether such move would be vel
coined by the other nations, Mr..
Harding said.
IF congress desires to be- help
full in the present situation" he said
"it should modify the laws which
prevent Americas representation on
the reparations commissions and pro-
hibition of the American debt COM
mission from granting more liberal
funding terms to Americas world
war debtors.
A settlement of the reparations
question must underlie any eco-
nomic rehabilitation of Europe" Mr..

Of good roads enacted at the last term of the Legislature

the people want is separate road revenue BILL one that
will provide for the construction of roads and that fund
separate from the general expenditures Even stated
amount Of tax on all property for road purposes would be
better than no provision or inadequate provision for road
building If tonnage tax is put on coal It should all be
for the purpose of building good roads, and the means of
raising revenue for road purposes should eapart from
