GOMPER5 WADES
INTO NEW PLAN
Charges Plea for Immi-
grafton Is Cry of the
Profteeers

WASHINGTON.-The campaign
to throw down the immigration bars
and let as many immigrants come to
these shores as wish to, is vigorously
assailed by Samuel Gompers, president
OF the American Federation Of Labor.
who protests that there is no such
shortage Of labor in this country as
would require a horde OF foreigners TO
make up.
THE cry for immigration" he says.
is the cry OF the profteers and the
exploiters."
1t is important and Illuminating TO
note those European countries where
in wage standards are nearest our
own, have not at any time furnished
the quota Of immigrants allowed to
them under our present law. Only
those countries where wage standards
are very much lower than our own
have furnished the number of immi-
grants permitted by the law.
Therefore, to permit a greater de-
gree Of immigration merely means a
greater influN OF those willing to work /
or lower wages and under whatever
onditions may be determined by the
Employers alone"
Secretary Davis, OF the Department
t Labor, has emphatically expressed
isapproval OF any plan to let down
he bars OF immigration because of
ne need Tor labor.
He believes in selective immigration
5 plan which allows only the most .
,sirablc class OF aliens to enter the
nitcd States. He has also stated his {
lief that many OF the problems Of Il
migration would be eliminated if o
c work OF examination now done at a
lis Island was accomplished at the y
int OF embarkation. ~

radio telephone have been greatly i'm
proved. Our experiments with radio
telephony have been continuous and
have been going on for years. For
these latest tests we have had the use
of the station of the Radio Corpora
ton of America at Rocky Point, long
Island
at is now generally recognized that
the chief utility for radio telephony
is to be looked for in situations where
wires cannot be used. These expert
ments are part of our effor. to deter
mine to what extent the radio tele-
phone may ultimately be employed in
talking across great bodies OF water
where talking through telephone wires
is not feasible. We are making pro-
gress steadily, but there is much more
to be done before we can speak defin-
tely about establishing practical COM
nercial radio telephone service across
The Atlantic.
The tests we are now conducting !
ire adding a great deal to the knowl-
.dge of the art. Some very important
iata have been obtained from the
work of the American engineers sent
o England and of those here. The
ests have been very vigorously con-
ucted, and for weeks our scientific
taft has been sending signals of many

Claim Miners Are Not Robbed Of
 Their Liberties

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.--The theory and results of company min ing towns were discussed in detail in a brief filed today by the bitumi- nous operators special committee with the coal commission.
 The brief also informs the commits sion of the creation of a department in the national coal association to deal with the problems of housing, welfare work and mining community activities generally.
 Company towns, the brief says, are far from "a feudal survival result ing from the attempts of conscience less operators to deprive their work men of the civil liberties of the American citizen.
 Often as much as half of the com pany's capital it declares, has to be tied up in a mining town and the in- vestment is in most cases unproduc- tive.
 Discussing leases, the brief points out that mining companies are not in the renting business, but provide houses solely for the purpose of en- abllng men to work there. Evictions are made, it says, because they are necessary if the mine is to operate. They are always made humanely, the brief declares and through use of legal process and very often only after considerable delay
