Teeth in the immigration law to aid
the Department of Labor in deporting
aliens were urged last night by Secre-
tary William N. Doak.
Speaking In the National Radio
Forum, arranged by The Star and
broadcast over the Nationwide net
work Of the Columbia BroadcaSting sys-
tenn, Secretary Doak said he would in
sist on vigorous enforcement policy.
He declared that of the 400, 900 he re-
Gently estimated were now in the United
States illegally, only 100000 would be
found to come within the deportation
provisions of the present immigration
law. The Secretary emphasized that 1t
was his intention to avoid spectacular
raids or sensational methods, but made
1t clear that the department intends to
proceed in calm, buSineSslike manner
TO rid the country Of these aliens.
Borders Are Cited.
The Canadian and Mexican borders
have been prolific sources of these
illegal entries, Secretary Doak said. An
other factor is 'deserting seamen," who
have settled in this country by the
thousands.
immigration officers at Seaports and
others making up border patrols have
succeeded in curbing the tide, but, he
emphasized, there Is need for further
effort.
At the outset Of his speech, Secre-
tary Doak said that there is opposition
in some quarters to restriction of i'm
migration on any basis, but that there
is need for further limitation has

The i'm provement was made under the personal supervision of w. c. Er- win, division superintendent, who went to Anchorage from his Sew ard headquarters to direct the in stallation.

DR. ROM|C HON0RED
 WITH COVETED DEGREE.

Dr. J. H. Romig, chief of the sur pical staff of the Alaska Railroad, has the distinction of having been made a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, a much covet- ed award which was bestowed up on him in recognition of his splen- did record in Alaska, says the An chorage Times.
 Announcement of the award was received by Dr. Romig in the last mail from the States and he was instructed to be present in October in order that he might have tiie degree formally conferred upon him. He considers it doubtful however, if he will be able to be there for the ceremony inaSmuch as his duties will not permit of a4l absence sufficiently long to enab4c him to make the trip east.
 The American College of Sur geons does not distribute it's fel- lowships promiscuously. In order to win one it is nescessary to meas ure up to certain rigid require ments; the degree which is honor ary in a sense, must be earned, no award being made until after thorough examination of records. There also must be recommends tions by surgeons of note.

Mild, When 1t Ought to In

BALTIMORE. October 23.-The
Wickersham report on penal institu-
tons, Frank Tannenbaum of Washing
ton, author Of the document, said yes
terday was "a mild, friendly document
when it ought to be a severe and I'M
relenting indictment of the present
penal system and all its doings."
Mr.. ~Tannenbaum, speaking before the
annual congress Of the American Prison
Association. disregarded the subject of
probation that had been assigned to him
to launch into sharp criticism Of
prison conditions
He mentioned by name four penal IN
situations. Clinton Prison, Dannemora,
N: Y; Ohio Penitentiary, Columbus,
Ohio; State Penitentiary. Jefferson,
Mo. and the State Prison at saltwater
Mimi. and told of existing conditions
that prevailed in them
The congress placed its approval on
the Wickersham Committee report by
unanimously adopting a resolution in its
favor, prepared by two of its members.
The resolution was drawn by San
ford Bates, chief of the United States
Bureau Of Prisons, and William j. Ellis,
commissioner Of the Department of In
situations and Agencies Of New Jersey.
The attack OF Mr.. Tannenbaum was
described by some OF the delegates as
sending slightly awry plans of the as
ISOLATION to forestall open controversy
on the Wickersham report They said
1t was followed by a Juror that spent
itself in ante-rooms and lobby groups
and did not break out on the conven-
ton floor
1t was learned that Mr.. Tannenbaum
had haan iV11ritoI fn

ersham report, although George w.
Wickersham, former president Of the
association, and other members Of the
commission were invited. These invita-
tons were not accepted.

alton with Government funds may also
permit the participation of the public
by private subscriptions to its capital
stock as Is done with Joint stock land
banks, but the inquiries thus far have
led TO the belief the Government would
be justified in starting the plan with an
initial appropriation.
The significance of the plan lies in
the fact it Is not like the others thus
far suggested, with have been aimed at
restoring confidence or rediscounting
slow assets, but Is intended to take
over half of the building and loan as
sociations' obligations that are self
liquidating and thus really increase the

lent OF first and second mortgage money
to those who want to build homes.
Second Trust Money Scarce.
For nearly two years new, second
mortgage money has been scarce and
yet few people have enough money
saved up to pay for a lot and all of
the building cost except that amount
available from first mortgage. Since
building loan associations usually re-
quire that a prospective home owner
it means that unless he can get the
difference between the first mortgage
and the building cost in the form Of
second mortgage or make arrangements
with a building and loan association
for the equivalent, there is no new
home built
Residence construction has been de-
Ginning for the last three years and
even while once buildings and insti-
tutions were III the midst of a building
boom the residence building fell off
materially, due to lack of credit.
Company Uses Plan.
The situation has been to some extent
recognized in new plans to finance
home building Thus. as a consequence
of President Hoover'S conference on
home building of two years ago, Sears.
Roebuck & Co. has been operating
successfully plan whereby rs per
cent OF the total cost of house and
lot are advanced provided the land
is unmortgaged. The borrower is per-
mitted to pay of his debt in IS years
with monthly payments that amount
to 1856 per month on every Thousand
dollars borrowed and there Is no sec
ond mortgage involved.
Mr. Hoover has felt that if private
capital can do things like this, the
Government can encourage an extern
SION of the plan and he has been try
ing TO get pools formed in various
cities to do virtually the same thing
Efforts have been made. too, to get
and contractors to join in the financing
