elderly recluse, who lived for the last

He said his name was William B.

nothing from the scattered community

cities and irrigation districts have been given
power licenses and are developing their own
electric energy and saving their people money.
The Swing-Johnson bill provides that this
policy shall apply to the power generated at
Boulder dam. The Federal Government would
build the dam and the electric generating plant.
Political subdivisions and private companies
would lease the electricity generated and build
their own lines for transmitting it. And where
applications conflict, preference would be given
the political subdivision in case other things
are equal.
Secretary of the Interior Work, under
whose direction the dam is to be built and ad-
ministered, has objected to this policy and
asked that all reference to the Federal water
power act be stricken from the bill. This would
leave him with complete control over disposal
of the power
The precedent would be dangerous.

Cure Worse Than the
Disease

IA s a result Of the hullabaloo over the
IL Countess Cathcart case, Immigration
Commissioner Curran Of New York announces
he will ask Congress to give him absolute au-
thority to decide all cases of appeals by immi-
grants and visitors detained at Ellis Island.
Reading between the lines and in the light
of subsequent events, it would seem the com
missioner did not wholly approve Of the Cath
cart deportation order. The comedy Of errors
played by the immigration officials seems to
have made him sick as indeed it did most every
one else in the country. Anyway, he has taken
to his bed, whence comes the bulletin an
nounced above.
Commissioner Curran says he did not
decide the Cathcart case sat any point or in
any way; by law and regulation l could only
stand on the sidewalk and watch it go BY" A
predicament in which he has all our sympa-
thy; for most of us, at some time or other in
our lives, have had to stand by and watch
somebody pull boner which we would have
given weeks salary to head off.
But the commissioners remedy is worse
than the disease. So far as we know he may
have all the wisdom Of Solomon plus, and
would so decide his cases but the institution
his bill would create-an immigration dictator
ship-would be far too dangerous, power too
easy to abuse
In fact we have some such dictator now
st. Peter at-the- Gate Kellogg. He not only
can, but actually does, bar anybody he sees fit
to bar or admits anybody he sees it to admit
on such conditions as he wills. Who has for
gotten the muzzling of the ex-president Of Hun
garyf Or the barring Of Countess Karolyi?
And Of Saklatvala, British member Of Parlia-
ment? Who has forgotten, on the other hand,
the welcome that was extended to the Russian
Soviet gentry who wanted to do business with
Wall Street,
What\we really need is not new law Gre

and the admission Of visitors, but the abolition

now have. That, and general revision and

practice.
