TEN, However.

Aroused bv reports that ~ unusual
number Of radicals and aliens are in

today. took preliminary steps toward
checking through the Army and the
ranks os industry On those aliens who
have fiaunted the immigration laws
and are in this country Illegally.
Carrying further a plan already In
operation by Henry Ford in his big
industrial and mercantile machine.
Secretary Davis called on all employ.
ers Of labor Of all descriptions to make
sure that successful applicants for
jobs have the legal right TO be in this
country. and have not violated the i'm
migration laws in getting here
Through the War Department the
Army was also asked to check UP on
all applicants for enlistment TO make
sure that recruits have the right to
wear the Army uniform and are not
iawbreakers in the civilian sense.
Must Prove Legal Entry.
Ford, whose plants scattered through
out the country employ upward Of
$4,000 men, has had plan in opera
tiOn for several months and is said
TO be most strict in banning from his
employ those who cannot produce sat
isfactory credentials OF citizenship or
of legal entrance into this country.
Although Secretary Davis said there
is no way 10 ascertain the number OF
aliens illegally in the United States.
the number must reach into scores of
thousands. In the ranks of these per-
sons who have faunted the law OF the
Nation, he said. there are undouht.
edy many radicals. Many ways for
illegal entry into this country are
open to unscrupulous persons who are

said. The far-fung sea borders of the

tunities for aliens to land from yes

Mr.. Davis said there is no inten-
ton at present to establish the regis
tration system in use in many Euro
pean countries, although registra-
ton of aliens coming through regu-
lar immigration ports was one of
his pet" projects three years ago.

gram being offered by the physical
department of the "Y," where all
groups of members, from small boys
to mature business men, are finding
an outlet for stored up energy, and
where they are building up their bod
les by systematic exercise. A strong
physical committee of business men
guides the athletic program.
The board of directors of the Young

thank all those who so generously
took part and gave of their time to
make the campaign a success, and also
to express their gratitude to the cop
per companies for their help. They

gram, and to be free to state what

VAUDEVILLE AT
GRAND PACKED
FULL OF LAUGHS

+ A well blended and thoroughly en-
Joyable vaudeville program is on tar
Tor patrons of the Grand theatre to-
morrow night.
Heading the bill will be Ruth Rob-
inson and company, presenting Widow
by Proxy" a clever one-act playlet
which contains a wealth Of comedy
material and is one of the funniest
laugh provoking acts on the vaude-
vile stage. Miss Robinson is sur
rounded by an exceedingly capable
cast including Margaret Lands, sister
of Cullen Landis the screen star,
Peggy Lonnie, and Joseph Bell This
farce promises to be the very best of
the current season and is guaranteed
to make sphinx laugh.
Another act built only for laughing
purposes is that offered by willard
Hall and Ddano Manor, two clever
people recruited from the ranks of
musical comedy where they were fea-
'tured members several successful pro-
ductions, including mo, No Nannette. .
Harry CAROLS Pickings," and "The
Barker" Their act is called nifty
Nonsense" and after seeing the act,
theatregoers agree that it is aptly
billed.
Bob Mills offers "A somewhat Diff
ferent Pianologue" and his specially
written song numbers are interesting
in the extreme. Mr.. Mills is possessed
of an ingratiating personality and
rapidly makes friends with his audi
ence, this feature tending to place him
foremost in the ranks of acts of this
type Bob Mills also is endowed with
a voice easily understandable and his
annunciation of each word is clear and
distinct.
Mack and White are pair of whirl-
wind roller skaters and perform a series
of difficult and dexterous feats in a
very short space of time, These two
men are both champion skaters and
include in their routine many seemingly
impossible tricks.
Sherlock and Clinton offer delight
full singing act, which never fails to
please the most exacting theatre pat
ron. Their voices blend perfectly and
their personalities are such that their
offering never fails to register solid
hit.
L
promises to be one of the best ever
sent over the Chicago to coast tour.
It embraces all of the necessary in
gradients which go into the making OF
a successful vaudeville performance,
combining comedy galore, music, dane
ing and novelties The artists present
a laughter piece" participated in by
each member of the bill wherein they
offer a number of exceedingly funny
"blackouts." A blackout is a short
skit composed of dialogue at the ter
mination of which the lights are put
out simultaneously with the comedy
punch line. This style of entertain
ment is featured with most of the large
musical comedies and the original bits
presented by this unit show elicit
laugh after laugh. Unless you can
stand an abundance of hearty outlaws,
don't attend this show because ii you
do, you are certain to- laugh as you
never have before.
