Desirable Aliens Kept Out But Criminals Get in, Frederick A. Wallis Tells Civic Clubs.

Stories Of the hardships and in- justices of the present immigration law were told last evening at a joint meeting Of the civic clubs of the city and the Chamber of Commerce at the Burritt hotel by Frederick A. Wallis, commissioner of correction and formerly commissioner Of immi- grafton of the port of New York.
 Mr, Wallis painted heart -rendlnc scenes Of husband and wives being separated at Ellis Island, parents ad- mttcd and their children turned back, sturdy, two listed. thrifty and honest peasants being refused ad- mission because they could not read or write. while hundreds oc clever anarchists were admitted because they could.
 He told of men and women who would rather die than be turned back 10 their native countries where they had no homes, no money, noth- ing but starvation staring them in the face. He told of hundreds nak- Ing solemn Compacts that they would not return If it cost them their lives, uf women who threw themselves prostrate on the boats and pounded their heads until the deck was red with blood. Of mothers who tried to throw their babies into the ocean rather than take them back.
 He bitterly denounced The syst em of examining immigrants on this side of the water and said it should be done at the point of sailing. He said the quota ruling was a farce, that while the quota permitted 16s,. ono immigrants in the country iegit- lnateIy each year, more than G66,- Q00 were being smugged across tne Canadian border. God knows how many are coming in across the Mex Ican border" he said.
 He said S00,000 seamen come into this country every year and 1,9st of them from one country alone, de. serted within a period of 90 days. He said ships coming into the harbors bring anywhere from % to 75 or 80 stowawaTs, claiming that there is an organization in Europe which sells passages to stowaways for s15 to- s20, splitting the fee with the sea- men who feed them on the way over.
 The Drug Evil
 Mir. Wallis referred 10 the drug evil, stating that the United States is one of the worst countries in the world in the use Of opium He old of efforts by dope fends to get 1he drug that was driving them crazy. He said while there is one grain of opium per capita used annually in Italy, two grains in Germany, three in England and four in France, the [. s. uses 35 grains per capita every year, or enough 10 put every man. woman and child in the cous, try asleep for % days, literally blot ting q month off the calendar.

prices for labor, What we need is not only scientific selection, but we need intelligent distribution of. tho aliens coming to our shores Build CTS and contractors both in New York and Boston and other eastern cities have told me in the last two weeks that their building opera ions are seriously hampered if not frustrated by the lack of labor and harvest fields all over the country are finding that laborers are few. Even In the east, take Pennsyl- vanla for instance, one-tenth Of the available land Is uncultivated be- cause of dearth of workers. What must the conditions be in the vast empire of the west and the pro- ductlve south2
 Sometime ago the vice. president and two other officials of one of our greatest western railroads came 10 New York looking for groups of immigrants. The most significant thing the vice-president of that railroad said to me was this: Un- less immigrants in large numbers are sent 10 the northwest at once, GO per cent. of the rich soil along our railroads that was titled last year will go untitled this year. When you cut the production of great agricultural country 60 per cent. before you drop a seed in the soil, you cut it to the quick and up go the prices of foodstuffs and economic conditions fin general be- come ympathetically affected. This shortage of help can be multiplied in industrial and agricultural ex- periences clear across the continent.
 Canada puts up tho bars and says that immigrants cannot 20 into certain sections of Canads. Argentine Is just the reverse; she says to the immigrant. you must go into parts of the country South America is positive. Canada is mega tive. The United States Is neither. An immigrant can come and go when and where and how he pcases, so long as he does not in- torfere with the rights of another. And where does he go? He follows just in the trail of his countrymen, grouping themselves in the already over-congested districts of our cities. What is the result? Crime in creasing, disease spreading and a

 He said SO per cent Of all the peo- pie in correctional institutions are drug users and referred to a famil- lar charge by saving that prohibition has nothing 10 do with 1t, and that thls condition existed before prohi- btion
 Referring 10 scenes at Ellis Island hesaid: The scenes on that last great day Of judgment when we all arc called upon to face the Great White Throne can be no more heart rending than scenes at Ellls Island. The government is separating hus- bands from wives and tearing little children from the arms Of their par ents."
 He continued:
 Immigration can be regulated by legislation or diplomacy, or by both, but the immigrant cannot be so standardized. He is a human be- ing and must be treated as such. He is flesh and blood and spirit and subject to like passions as our selves And for that matter we are all foreigners, unless you happen to be North American Indian. Every person within the hearing of my voice has foreign blood coursing in his veins. It may be two generations back or ten, but the foreign blood IS there and you are all proud of it.
 Face to face with the immi- grant on Ellis Island. day in and day out, business man learns to look upon immigration as a very simple business proposition after all. As one looks upon the up- turned faces Of the great throng of aliens in the inspection halls he sees all eyes fixed upon the desk of the inspector, as though it were some holy shrine of deliverance, ones mind turns back countless pages of history to that chapter of Genesis, which tells how Cain crossed over into the land of Nod, or the book Of Exodus, when the children Of Israel fled Egypt, or to that early chapter in our own American history when the Pilgrim fathers landed upon our New Eng land shores. The world has always been on the move. Always immi- grating, and emigratlng and migrat- ing. And for what? Simply 10 bet ter their condition. To let them do so without lowering our standards of living is the whole question.
 Country Needs Immigrants
 "The widespread antagonism to immigration lies unquestionably in the lack Of a true understanding of its importance to our present day economic system. Alarmist state ments, either by the open door ad- Hocates or the total eXclusionists. will in my opinion get us nowhere along the path Of correct solution of this great problem. The immi- grant is here, has always been here. will always be here. The na- ton itself is largely the work of his hand and brain. He founded the country, cleared its forests, devel- oped it's resources, fought for it., died for it, and the last war proved that the new immigrants were not greatly different from the old.
 This country Is greatly in need Of immigration. There are sections of the country offering fabulous

 What Is Americanization?
 "We hear much of Americani2a- ton, It is a big word and I fear we know but little of what 1t means from practical standpoint. Amer icanization Is not the work Of pres sure, it Is the work of patience. Americanization Is for the most part an economic problem You can no more force Americanization down m aliens throat than a min- ister can cram religion down your throat. IL cannot be done in that way. Real Americanization Is simply interpreting to the alien the better things of our American life. and interpreting them in terms of fair ness and good will.
 "Americanlzation can be best achieved through the force of en- vironmeut, night schools, day school, Sunday school, better living conditions, sufficient wages and hours of employment which guar antee a healthful life and best of all perhaps, by training in our churches and schools. If we will only give the immigrant 10 under stand that his work is appreciated, that this nation Is his opportunity. that the church is his friend, and that he must become naturalized, making our government his govern ment then, and then only, will he make his best contribution to American life and labor,

sues Three intermediate Suggestions.
PARIS-If the decisions of the
congress OF French hair dressers,
which recently assembled here, has
the authority claimed for them the
bobbed-hair fashion soon will have
PASSED definitely out OF existence.
The problem, therefore, is how best
to come to the help of those who can
not hope to produce tresses OF their
own for the next two or three years,
and TO this end three new styles are
recommended by the congress.
l. The Directoire, with the hair
drawn up above the head and band
stretched around the temples.
3 The Louis Philippe, with curls
at the neck and ears.
3. The Empress Eugene, with
two bands across the forehead and the
hair falling over the shoulders.
All these facilitate the wearing OF
made-up hair, either that lately aban-
doned by the wearers themselves or
new adornment acquired from others.
