CHICAGO, April 30.-The United
States must AmericaniZe the alien be-
fore the alien alienizeS America,
James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor,
declared in an address last night be-
fore Chicago lodges of the Independ-
ent Order of B'nai Birth.
The need, Secretary Davis said, is
for a system that will give the alien
honestly desiring TO become a citizer.
the help which he must have to ac-
complish this end, and TO clear the
way for the elimination of the alien
who is here in defiance of our laws,
or who seeks to abuse our hospitality
by preaching the downfall of our in
StitutionS and the destruction of our
representative form of government"
Secretary Davis proposed plan of
enrolment for the registration of
every alien entering the United
States, requiring him to make an an
nual report to the government. BY
giving him an identification card en-
titling him to the benefits of an edu-
cational system already established,
Secretary Davis said, every alien
would be given an opportunity to be
come a citizen under a simplified
naturalization plan, while 1t would
be easy TO weed out the undesirables.
Not Plan of Espionage.
Registration of aliens, he declared
would subject them to no more sul :
veillance and espionage than has been
imposed on every citizen through reg
lStratlon as voting qualification
The treatment of aliens is inconsist-
ent, he declared, pointing out that
the nation provides that every child
native or foreign born, must attend
school, while hundreds of thousands
of adult foreigners are accepted with
out an effort at euucdtIun, al.nU4 gh
they are more in need of schooling in
AmericaniSm than the child who has
lived from birth under the influence
of American institutions He pro-
posed payment by the adult alien of
a small annual fee prior to naturali-
cation to defray the expense of edu-
cation and suggested the fee be $40.
Secretary Davis said he was for a
system of selective immigration that
would weed out the undesirables be-
fore they left their home shores.
Lucius l.. Solomons of San Fran

SEEKS TO PROTECT
BLOOMING DOGWOOD
Expert Urges Nature Lovers to Pre-
serve Trees From Attack
by Ruthless Hands.
DESTRUCTION IS GENERAL
Reveals How Growth May Be Guilt
waited From Cuttings.

Appealing TO all nature lovers in
Washington to preserve the wild
towering dogwood. p. L. Kicker of the
Wild Flower Preservation Society, an
expert of the Department of Agricul-
ture, today issued a statement re-
vealing how the tree may be grown
from cuttings.
Mr.. Kicker charges that the dog
" ood trees in the vicinity often do
not recover from attacks of these
pseudo nature-lovers," who strip
the trees of their blooms, endangering g
one of the principal beauties of the
spring countryside. Well-meaning
people often do not realize, he said,
the seriousness of the situation.
The automobile has been largely
responsible for the rapid increase in
the destruction of dogwood and many
others of our rarer flowers" he said.
Where formerly the destruction was
confined to the Immediate vicinity of
the larger towns and tourist points,
now practically no part of the coun-
try is free from it.
Dogwood Growth IL Slow.
The growth Of dogwood from seeds
is too slow to be comm mercially feas-
ible, as they have to be stratified for
two winters. but it may be grown
readily from nearly ripened cuttings
taken in late summer and placed in
flats of sand. preferably underlaid
with an inch or more of sphagnum
moss, and thoroughly saturated with
water at the time of planting.
THE fiat should be covered with
glass and shaded, but the glass
should be raised in very hot weather.
The moss will hold the moisture so
that watering will not be required
every day. The cuttings should be
well calloused and good roots formed
in from six to eight weeks. after
which the glass may be removed, the
rooted cuttings transplanted to pots
and later to nursery rows before colo
weather sets in
