A headline says rail executives will fight cut in freight rates Odd, isn't it? In the past they could show deficit regardless of freight rates and the higher the rates the more deficit they could show by their very own figures. The rail executives figure that the common people never can show satisfactory deficit no matter how high all rates are boosted Their idea seems to be that wheel that doesn't squeak needs no grease.

WOULD VIRTUALLY
 STOP REFRIGERATION
Washington Representative to IntrO-
 duce Drastic Bill in Next Congress.

1 Washington, Sept. 23.-New legisla- ton restricting immigration almost to the point of exclusion was outlined to- day by Representative Johnson of Washington, chairman of the House Immigration Committee, in state ment of plans for the next session. He suggested many changes in the existing law, which he will endeavOr to have Congress approve at the next session. He expressed the opinion that the country seems to want com plete suspension of immigration" but contended this was impracticable.
 Proposed Changes.
 Measures urged by MT. Johnson for tightening up the present law includ- ed the following:
 Reduce the percentage figure to per cent of even to 1 1-2 per cent, thus lowering the total number of ad- missibles from countries entitled to large quotas.
 Give all countries which have sep arate governments or parliaments which act independently of the parent government, base quotas of about 60) each annually, cutting down other eA- remptions as far as possible.
 Treat immediate families as units admitting the husband wife or child ren of citizens of the United States and aliens permanently domiciled here.
 Perfect the illiteracy test by pro- yiding authority for the exclusion of the mentally inferior and the emotion ally unstable classes.
 Provide for more thorough physical examination of immigrants by au- thorizing the modern blood test, a simple yet effective step, which will exclude aliens afflicted with diseases otherwise not readily detected.
 Apply the quota law to alien sea- men who intend to leave ship and re- main in the United States.
 Admit certain exempted classes such as students, actors and members of certain professions, or temporary stay only.
 Limit all immigration to persons eligible to citizenship, once and for all time disposing Of difficulties which have arisen by reason of the heavy colonization of our Pacific slope ol 3unassimilable alien races

There is no more important element in the business world today than legit- innate advertising. It serves both the buyer and seller, but the producer as well. True, many business sins are committed in the name of advertising, the fly-by-night, the scheme, the trick advertising that benefits no one but the promoter. It is a subject that de- serves the best thought in business and some of the best minds are deyot- ed to legitimate advertising.
