Ask Modification of Present I'm.
 migration Laws
BY GEORGE IT. MANNING

 | Washington Bureau Of New Britain Heraid) Washington. D. C.. Jan. 6.-Irre- parable injury will be sustained by
 the industries of the country unless the present labor shortage is relieved
 by modifying the rigid immigration laws so as to permit greater immi- grafton from Europe, 1t was asserted
 hefore the house immigration com
 mittee yesterday by J. Grant Kings bury, of the Grant Manufacturing and Machine Co.,, of Bridgeport, repre- senting the Connecticut Manufactur- CTS association. The main contention of the Connecticut manufacturers is that the immigration laws should be more flexible. so as to admit a suff- cient number of immigrants at any time to meet the needs of industry, regardless of fixed quotas set for inn migrants from the various countries.
 The association insists that there is an actual shortage of unskilled labor in this country, that this shortage can only be remedied by the admission of abor from abroad, and that immi- iioui aDi ceased in the last five years Tn spite of figures showing that the quotas set by the last immigration act have been filled in many instances, the number | of emigrants has been so large that 1 he net gain from immigration has ,een practically nothing.
 This association is urging pro- ,ram of legislation drafted as a result ,f two years intensive study of i'm migration and economic problems by special committee of manufacturers
 Recoplmendations Made

The Laxative With 72 Years Reputation FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY Dr. True's Elixir Tla T.a E..I
The True Family Laxative

Mothers with their home wor. ries are often irregular at meals-have no appetite--are often restless at night-are tired and are troubled with distressed stomachs-need a prompt, pure herb laxative, and such IS Dr. True's Elixir, the True Family Laxative. The Working man is apt to neglect his health; may eat too hurriedly 7 and at irregular hours. Often this puts the bowels out of order-they fail to function pIoperly-causing frctfulness, taking away the appetite, slowing down the ac- tive mind. To relieve these conditions, have a bottle of Dr. True's Elixir handy.

Congressman Merritt's Measure Would Draw Teeth From Ruling of
 Federal Trade Commission
BY GEORGE H. MANNING

BY GEORGE H. MANNING
 Washington Bureau of New Britain Heraid).
 Washington, D. C., Jan. 6.-Great
 and unusual interest is being displayed
 by large manufacturers and Cham
 bers of Commerce in Connecticut and
 other states in the Merritt bill to per-
 init manufacturers of goods sold by trade mark or special brand to fix the price at which these goods shall be sold.
 This bill recently introduced by Congressman Schuyler Merritt of Connecticut would remove the troublesome prohibition enforced against this practice by the Federal Trade Commission This resale" price case has been vexing the manu- lecturers for many years, the Fed eral Trade Commission insisting that for manufacture to fix the resale" price is violation of the Sherman antitrust law.
 In view of the flood of commun,- 1 cations coming to his office from large manufacturers commenting his bisl, l Congressman Merritt is endeavoring to obtain hearing before the Inter- { state and Foreign Commerce com | mittee of the house next week, in or | der that the bill may be reported out | as soon as possible and be ready for passage through congress as soon as opportunity offers.
 The unique feature of Mir. Merritss bill, is the provision made for avoid ng the prohibition enforced by the Federal Trade commission. This pro- tides that before such an article may ,e sold at price less than that fixed ,y the manufacturer, it must first be ,ffered back to the manufacturer at | he price at which it was sold by him, | hus allowing the manufacturer to ,rotect his resale" price. and also the retailer from danger Of H oss. It is believed this provision will H vercome the objections of the, Fed III ral Trade commission: and if it does. III he bill will prove a boon to hum reds of large manufacturers all over II he country. ii

That is the lesson Of a recent analysis showing that onessikth oi our national income goes for taxes federal. state and local, The amount divides almost equally between na- tionai taxation and the expenditure for state and local purposes. The question is not. therefore. one of any particular party politics.
 This habit Of getting the govern ment to do something about it' is one of the most costly and wasteful ideas that we Americans have developed. IL has grown upon ns since the war. We became accustomed to things then that would not have had considera- lion before. Now We are exceeded by one nation only. Great Britain. in our cost of being governed. There the unemployment doles and other leg islation put forward by stronger labor vote. have exceeded any thing attempted here as yet. But this tens dency must be checked abruptly if American business is to survive in the competition which it faces over the next Ave to 10 years.
 Because any one individual does not see the tax collector. he thinks perhaps that he does not pay. but he does pay just the same. Taxation costs represent an item of overhead in everything that any one buys. con. sumes. or uses in process of working ID to n finished product The tax burden is inevitable. There are a | certain number of potential labor hours represented in the individuals | making up any community. The | of these labor hours which it | takes to protect his property. make safe his home and educate his chill ] dren are just so much taken away | from the possibility of establishing that surplus of wealth upon which the community thrives.
 The truth of this situation was perfectly clear in the old days when every man in the community was called on for five days work on the roads year in lien of taxes and when the night watch was maintained by periodic service of the townsmen. How would you like to go out and patrol a police beat one day each week. year in and year out? Or how would you like to take your turn as ! member of the fire department one lay in every six?

 ards Of admission and would leave the
 key of the immigrant gate in the
 hands Of the secretary Of labor. The proposal completely answers those who say there is no labor shortage by requiring those who assert 1t to demonstrate the fact in concrete terms to the secretary Of labor.
 Provision should be made imme- diately to provide for the physical ex- animation of otherwise admissible aliens through appropriate United States medical officers at the point where passports are vised. or at con venient points of embarkation. These provisions could of course be waived by our government where satisfactory | assurances are given by the country of immigrant origin that physical ex- aminations required by the United | States have been given and the re- suit certified. The latter proposal | satisfies any question of international relations. Unless provision is made for the examination of aliens before they embark the best class of aliens will not risk denial of admission upon arrival at the United States.
 The United States should assert the right to register, distribute, educate, and otherwise supervise the alien during the period of his alienage.
