Bill to Prevent Excessive immigration

1917, will be pOwerless to stay the tide.
"Such situation should not be per-
mitted to arise. The country demands
the restriction of immigration. The
public demand is not only for restric-
ton but for more ripid and more effec-
tive restriction than that imposed at
present"
Provisions of the Johnson bill were
summed up in the report as follows:
Preserves the basic immigration law
of 1917; retains the principle of nu-
merical limitation as inaugurated in
the act of May 10, 1921; changes the
quota base from the census of 1910
to the census of 1890; reduces the
percentage from to 2, plus small
base quota for each country; counts
certificates, not persons; provides for
preliminary examination overseas; ex-
empts wife, children under eighteen,
and parent over fifty-five, of American
citizen; reduces classes of exempted
aliens; places burden of proof on
alien rather than on the United
States; meets the situation with ref
erence to admission of persons ineligi-
BILE to citizenship; carries numerous
sections to lessen hardships of immi-
grants; tightens the bars against i'm
migration of Japanese and other
OrientalS

rooms in the New Nicollet hotel in
Minneapolis, to be occupied during the
American Legion convention in st.

of whom are Legion men.
Major Lands announced that he

McFadden Sponsors New Banking Bill

banks to operate bond departments for
the purchase and sale of investment
securities. This provision is designed
primarily to afford relief to the small.
er national banks.
Another provision permits national
banks to hold their charters in per-
petuity, thus enabling institutions ex-
ercising trust powers to administer
perpetual trusts without encountering
legal complications.
The McFadden measure contains
other features designed to harmonic
and clarity laws governing the opera
ton of national banks.
The enactment of this bill by con-
gress would have far-reachiag effect
by enabling national banks to meet
the demands for service under modern
economic and social conditions" Mr..
McFadden said
The enactment Of this bill would
have the further effect of greatly
strengthening the federal reserve sys-
tenn by increasing the confidence and

Annual Naval Bill Shows Big Increase

which have not been authorized by law.
AS to new ship construction, the
committee said, it was without power
to authorize expenditures for vessels
not yet sanctioned by congress, but
cited information that the Navy de-
partment is committed to program
for building types permissible under
the arms conference treaty which,
with the undermining program already
under way, would involve expenditure
of approximately S35,000.O00 for the
next ten years.
The committee declined to accept a
budget recommendation that So, $50, 600
be appropriated to commence the con-
struction of three feet submarines
authorized in 1915, declaring the
value of this type of craft had not yet
been proved.
With a view of cutting down the
officer strength of the navy, the COM
mittee recommended the appoint
ments to the Annapolis Naval academy
be reduced on 5-to-3 basis, bringing
the graduating class down to 254 In
1923.

Not only has the board found these

which would render them helpless in
wartime and cripples them so badly
that they would be of little use even
in peace-time evolutions.
While decision of the disposition Of
these craft now idling at Culebra
rests with Washington, it is expected
that after they have executed certain
target practices which are not de-
pendent on speed, they viii be ordered
to their home yards and there laid up
until congress sees fit to provide
money to make them useful fighting
units once more. The Wyoming and
Arkansas will presumably go to Brook

ADDITIONAL HONORS
FOR BLIND VETERAN

Frank Schoble, blinded World war
veteran, and one of the nations best
examples of how disabled man may
become rehabilitated, has won addi-
tional honors. Schoble's home is at
Wynecote, Pa, but he has been at
tending the University of Pennsylvania
since 1921. There he won a member
ship in Phi Beta Kappa, the highest
scholastic honor that student may re-
ceive
Schoble was blinded five days before
the armistice as he led his men near
Nantillois in the Argonne sector. Re-
turning, he resolved to re-enter the
school that he had left thirteen years
before to enter business life, only to
face many handicaps.
His first obstacle was credit for his
previous work. Scholastic require
ments had so Increased that though he
was in his junior year when he had
left the school, he was given credit
but for work covering year and a
half.
Then another handicap presented
itself. He had not yet learned to read
and write by the Braille system, and
was forced to have this knowledge to
continue his studies. He was not
daunted, however, and his applications
have just won him the most coveted
honor of the institution.
Schoble is an active member of the
American Legion. and has spoken be-
fore many PENNSYLVANIA posts of the
Legion. Without any bitterness against
the fate which shut him off from sight,
he said to his comrades:
II see line upon line of khaki-clad
men, my comrades in the war, going
forward in that drive that forced the
enemy from his position, and that
within few short weeks had expelled
him from the Argonne.
"That sight to my mind represents
the spirit of the American soldiers,
and of the Legion itself. You are go
ing forward to your objective.
II feel have an advantage over all
you men, with that final picture in my
mind You men here are to me not an
assemblage of civilians. but of soldiers,
in spirit wearing that uniform and go
ing forward. You are going to carry
on until the whole nation Of 10000 900
Is in line.
'Ne real American is going to take
pride in what others do for him; he
Is not going to be proud of what he
has done in the past. He is going to
take up the responsibilities of doing
more and better things himself"

Bad Boilers Disable Four Battleslnps

"HE Atlantic fleet suddenly went
out of business the other day.
Its four capital ships, which are
all that are available for duty in
Atlantic waters under the present dis
position of our naval forces, have been
found unfit to maneuver.
If unfit to maneuver, it follows they
are unfit to fight, so America, instead
of having today Is battleships which
could engage an enemy, is temporarily
reduced to ii.

N the national banking system is
proposed by Representative
McFadden of Pennsylvania,

measure is to lift the handicaps under
which national banks are now COM
PEELED to operate. The McFadden bill
proposes to amend both the national

In several important particulars.
One of the most important features
of the bill would permit national banks
to engage in branch banking within
city limits in those states where the
similar right is given state institu-
lions. In this same connection, it also
is provided that there shall be no
further extension of statewide branch
banking by any member of the feder-

National banks in agricultural dis

permitting all national institutions to
lend up to 80 per cent of their time
