well as it may be. The immigration Law
speaks Of foreign labor, that is true. but
If this draft Of ordinance which is now
under discussion is adopted and goes into
effect it would alter all existing laws that
are in conflict. This ordinance is law
of Itself. independent of all others and it
is the privilege Of the Council to pass it
without regard 10 whatever other law
concerning The immigration Fund shat
may be in existence. In the year 1905 or
1906 the question Of changing all the
laws came up and a Royal Commission
was here and the Council was asked to
decide whether it would abolish the tax
of ten cents an acre on land on continue
it and keep the fund for the purposes of
immigration, and it was decided to con-
tinue the voluntary tax Of ten cents on
every acre of land IN order to have a fund
for the purpose of importing labOrers. Of
course, as a member says perhaps it would
have been better if the Planters had
formed a private fund at that time, bat
was considered that if the Fund was pri-
vate fund the Planters might not want to
pay it, so authority vas given to the Gov
ernmant 10 administer it. | consider that
this is a proper ordinance, and that tae
Planters have a right to come to the
Council and ask for help to bring in labor,
ers, whether from Porto Rico or Hawaii,
or elsewhere. The bill does not say
whether from foreign or United States
territory. In regard to the proposal
made by LIST Member for Frederiksted
Country District that the Government
should make some rules whereby the ex-
penSes iu connection with bringing the
laborers here should only be paid il the
laborer remain here at least a certain
time. I agree with that principle, but [
don't see how that can be done. Under
the present law ne cannot make working
contracts as we have no means of execu-
ting taem; therefore the basis oil the law
cannot be used. II l had to do with the
drawing up of this ordinance | would ask
that the entire expense in connection
with the importation of iaborers be de-
frayed from the immigration Fund in
stead of two thirds OF it, because the I'm
migration Fund was created and is kept
for this purpose; and If laborers imported
