PROTESTS
HEARD
Republican Steering Commit
tee Receives Objections to
Proposed Selective Bill.

The Republican steering commit
tee today heard the protests of a
number of Republican Congress-
men, headed by LaGuardia, OF New
York, against the selective restric-
tive immigration bill reported ia
vorably by the House immigration
committee.
The steering committee, which
decides party policy in connection
with legislation, is to determine
whether the immigration legisla-
tion proposed shall be put through,
or whether notifications are stO be
recommended to Republican men,
bers of the immigration committee
with view to placating opponents
Of the bill in its present form. :
Chief Objections.
Chief among objections to the bill
Is it's provision limiting quotas to
2 per cent Of the 1890 census. The
present law is 8 per cent Of the
1910 census. The change in quotas
reduces immigration from 357, 1000
to 169 900, exclusive Of fathers and
mothers over fifty five years Of age,
husbands and wives Of citizens and
their unmarried minor children un.
der eighteen years Of age who will
be admitted as non.quota imni-
grants.
The 1890 census was selected in
place Of the 1910 census because
under it possible immigration from
southern Europe will be reduced
greatly, while percentage OF immi-
grafton from northern Europe viii
be increased. Italian immigration
will be hard hit by the change, and
LaGuardia, OF italian birth, is Wig
OroUs in denunciation Of the ad.
nitted discrimination.
Italy Has Protested.
The Italian government has pro.
tested formally to the State Depart
ment, and LaGuardia resents what
he terms an injustice to a friendly
nation and an ally in the late war.
The selective plan is worked out
by supplying American consuls
with immigration certificates and
requiring the Immigrant to present
himself to secure this certificate
which will be good for eight months
from date Of issue. The consul viii
require information from the immi-
grant which will give line as to
his character and family. The con.
sui must wise the certificate, and
can refuse to do so If not satisfied.
