Nation Editor Condemns Out
side Control of DaiIieS at
Testimonial.

The Chain" newspaper, which has
been extending its hold rapidly through
gut the United States during the past 10
years, represents a dangerous trend IN
American journalism. Oswald Garrison
Willard, editor Of The Nation, said last
night at a dinner given in his honor at
the Washington on the tenth anniver-
sary of his editorship of that paper.
The point has been reached. Mr. VII
lard said. where some of the largest
American cities no longer have a local
eStS. but only papers owned. and to a
large extent. edited in other cities.
whose owners regard them solely as
money-making organs.
Papers Easy to Acquire.
There are two ways. he said. by which
outside interests obtain control of the
newspapers of city. The first is to
purchase outright. The second is to
purchase by forming stock company
financed by selling preferred stock to
local people. while the outside interests
retain control by keeping all the COM
mon stock.
"A wealthy man." he said. easily
could purchase all the daily and week.
ly papers in States such as Idaho or
Wyoming and thus completely control
public opinion in those States. l am
not sure but that man like Henry
Ford. If he wished to do so. could even
purchase all the newspapers in Michi-
gan. with the possible exception Of the
Detroit News. and thus dictate public
opinion In one of the most important
States in the Union"
Strike Probe Related.
He said he knew of one instance
where certain power interests had pur-
chased all the papers in a large Cali
fornia city and Is other papers in that
section of the State with the object Of
public opinion.
Senator Nye of North Dakota. was
at the dinner. iona Gale

said, living in conditions of extreme

MORE ON POPULATION

1t is significant that in the popu-
lation race between Waterbury and
New Britain the Y. s. Bureau of the
Census has made three estimates re-
gardlng New Britain's increased pop
ulation since 1920, while making no
estimates for Waterbury.
Here is the record for New Bri-
. tain: Population in 1920, 59,31G:
census estimate in 1925. Gs,o39: CEN
sus estimate 1927, 1920; census es.
innate, 1928. 72.s0o. BY the time the
1890 census is taken New Britain
population will have increased over
the 1920 figures by more than s.
600. And this is conservative. as the
post office estimates already give US
S0.uo0.
We don't know why the. census
bureau does not estimate the in
creasing population Of every city in
Connecticut, except it may be that
only the exceptionally live cities are
selected for this service.

Q. Can q person who entered
this country illegally seven years
ago be deported! Would ms serving
in the United States Army have any
bearing on the case?
A. Under the present construc-
ton of the immigration statutes, an
alien who entered this country cam
not be deported II he has resided
continuously in this country for five
years. unless during that time he
has been twice convicted of crime
involving moral turpitude. for which
he was sentenced to a term of more
than one year. In the case of DESERT
ing seamen who entered this country
illegally, the courts have held that
they cannot be deported after resid-
ing here three years. except for two
convictions of crime as above stat
ed. IL any case. however. the alien
must remain in the United States:
IL he goes outside the limits of the
United States, no matter for how
short q time, he must enter again
subject to all the immigration laws.
Joining the army or navy will not
legalize the standing of a person
who entered this country illegally.
