FOREIGN LABOR.
RESTRICTION !.
FAVORED
Too Many Workers Sure to
Bring Depression, Says John
Hays Hammond.
By WILLIAM RANDORF,
Cosmopolitan News Service.

COBmOpOAAIAM N0WB SGrVACes
NEW YORK, April 20-A million
workers too few may hamper in
dustry awhile, but will keep the ma
ton prosperous in the long run.
A million workers too many
and period of prosperity is bound
TO end in depression, perhaps a
panic and a lowering of the Ameri-
can standards of living.
That, said John Hays Hammond,
chairman of the United States coal
commission, today, is why he is
opposed to any policy OF unre-
stricted immigration.
"The big corporations may seek
to recruit a cheaper labor supply
by letting the tides Of immigrants
into this country" he said. "But
IN the long run they will have to
pay for 1t. It simply lowers the
standards the American worker has
achieved, and makes for the terrible
periods Of unemployment"
Proposes Remedies.
There are remedies for the situa-
ton. however. The present system
- entirely unsatisfactory, Hammond
pointed sout, with the baneful re-
suits obtained from permitting only
q certain percentage Of immigrants
from each country to come in.
His recommendations are these:
Establish Ellis Islands abroad
not at the gates of America.
Make the percentage Of iHnmi-
grants allowed into America yearly
dependent on the number Of their
nationals previously here who have
become American citizens.
Increase the total permitted entry
OF those coming here If they are
willing to go where labor is scarce,
instead Of still further overcrowd-
ing Industrial centers.
Employers View Narrow.
''Many employers, especially large
employers Of unskilled labor, take
the selfish and narrow view that
the labor supply is satisfactory only
when 1t is overabundant," said
Hammond. THAT is because then
he can pay reduced wages and com
pei acceptance of poor working con-
ditions. He favors the ignorant
and least exacting immigrants who
are content with q low standard of
living, low wages, and who usually
refrain from joining a labor union.
The American wage Garner, on
suS OLuOE manu. I66lS ms WnOl6
economic and social interest is
threatened by immigration of this
character"
Even today, Hammond said, there!
- room in the West for many thou
sands OF workers.
If the immigrants could be dis
trtbuted under a proper system, in
stead Of being allowed to clog up
already OVerfilled centers" he con.
finued, more immigration could be
permitted without danger. One mine
company needs 5000 men, another
1000 at present. and can't get them.
but to get the best material
from Europe, / think immigrants
from those countries should be per-
united first from which America
has obtained the largest numbers
Of naturalized citizens"
Hammond leaves today for a tour
OF inspection of the anthracite coal
region in Northern Pennsylvania.
BE will then return to Washing
ton.

The machine has been given a

"Glimpses of the Moon"

Allan Dwan has shown that his
torical novels are not the only ones
OF which he can give highly finished
artistic screen productions. "GlimpSeS
of the Moon" which is shown at the
Columbia Theater this week, is a de
llghtful perturbation of Edith Wllar-
tons Satrical novel of modern mar
ried life AS it is supposed to be lived
IN the higher social circles of Europe.
The story moves smoothly, with we'll
knit continuity, few subtitIes, and
beautiful Photographic effects Mr.
Dwan develops all the possibilities
of enchanting scenery allowed him
by this story of Paris, Venice and
other lovely settings Some of the
interiors. particularly the window
backgrounds. leave one with beauti-
ful mental pictures.
The story takes a handful of peo-
pie, puppet-like in the way in which
they are shaken and juegIed about
thrown together in other combina-
ttons and then separated again. Yet
the cast is so competent that il
clothes these puppets with Individual
characteristics that hold the interest
throughout. Bebe Daniels is the i'm
pulsive heroine whose high ideals
| and extravagant taste fight for
supremacy, forming the principal
struggle of the story. Nita Naldi
supervamp wife of an old millionaire
offers striking contrast to the heroine
and Rubye de Remer is the frivolous
| society matron to perfection. David
Powell gives a sympathetic portrayal
| OF the much -harassed and embarrassed
young author, and Maurice Costello
! draws a conventional picture of the
doting rich husband Of a cold hearted
| beauty.
This tale OF the struggles of q
young girl against her environment
with its many side lights on the So
cial ideals and foibles of the present
day, is one of the most interesting OF
| the many on this subject which have
been presented on the screen.
| The jazz selections by the orchestra
seemed to be much appreciated, also

"The Grub Stake" featuring Nell

who also assisted in it's screen dlrec-
ton. 1t will continue through Wed.
nesday with "A Knight In Gale, OF

Elemental feature. .
..The Grub Stake" is the story or a

When she learns what kind or Ire
she has been trapped into she appro-
pirates her supposed husbands dog
team and attempts to make her escape
under the guidance of simple
minded old prospector. The little
party is compelled to pitch camp In
the open after the melting OF the
snow, and here are introduced un-
usual animal shots" Immediately
following comes a climax that for
thrills and personal hazards isn't
often equaled. 1t is melodrama pure
and simple, but melodrama that dis
closes Miss Shipman as clever
author and a decidedly resourceful
actress.
