Astounding Release of Aliens Subject
To Deportation Under the Statutes

To the Edito- of The Star:
In Saturdays Evening Star was the
astounding release from the Depart
ment of Labor that 465 aliens subject
to deportation have been granted an
extension of their stay" or rather
suspension of deportation, until the
next session of Congress" because the
department officials consider them
desirable citizens" although every
one of these aliens entered the coun-
try illegally or has broken some of
our laws since entry. The justifica-
ton for this amazing action is alleged
to be a resolution adopted by the
House Immigration Committee Just
before adjournment, as if mere reso-
luton of committee of the House
repeals existing mandatory laws and
as if resolution of a few members of
congressional committee, whose
jurisdiction is limited to considering
and reporting back bills referred to
it, should and does prevail. even
though Congress has refused by de-
cisive vote of 80 to 186 to pass a bill,
H. r. 9725, prepared by the Depart
ment of Labor to authorize the de-
partment to suspend the very deporta-
tionS whose suspensions are now con-
tinued.
The deportation statutes are man.
datory. The act of 1917 expressly
and specifically states that the Secre-
tary Of Labor shall take" deportable
aliens into custody and deport" them.

Honorary Policemen.

General Organ, police commits
sioner of New York, has just issued
an order striking at one of the most
cherished prerogatives of the organi-
cation which he commands. He has
ordered the abolition of all honorary
memberships in the department. The
very title of honorary membership in
the police force IL an anomaly and
requires explanation. 1t appears that
there are within the department no
less than thirty-cne associations of
an endowment, benevolent, religious
and social character, and it seems
to have been the practice for some
time for these associations to grant
honorary memberships, probably in
consideration of generous gifts There
are now about eight hundred of these
members" and each one has a card, a
shield, and in some cases police
department license plate for the in
dividual motor car. Recently the
deputy commissioner chased a car
on one of the arterial highways of
the city that was going at an ex-
cessive rate of speed. When over
taken it was found that it was driven
by an honorary member of the de-
.nartuent and bore the police insignia.

Four Ways to Solve 1t.
From the Des Moines Tribune.

from the O6S MOlHeS 1IlOuHcs
Judge Frank J. Loesch Of Chicago,
during a visit to Des Moines, offered
four solutions to the kidnapping prob
lem:
/. Arm the officers who "go after
'em" with sawed-off shotguns on the
theory that the kidnapers are more
afraid Of such weapons than of re-
volvers and on the additional theory
that the policeman is less likely to
hit an innocent bystander with the
spreading charge of his short-barreled
shotgun than with his revolver slug.
2. Stop the payment by those who
can afford it of the ransom demanded
by the kidnapers on the theory that II
no one will pay there will be no in
centive to snatch"
3. Persuade all prospective victims
to say by jinx, go ahead and shoot"
to the kidnaper when he approaches
with the adhesive plaster and gags,
on the theory that the gangster won't
shoot less he destroy the chance OF
collecting ransom.
4. Promote athletics and such activ-
tiles as band contests to remove the
temptation of crime from the younger
generation on the theory which says
Teach boy to blow a horn and he'll
never blow q safe"
Consider the practicahties of the
proposals we incline toward No. 4 as
the one most feasible, even though re-
suits may be somewhat deferred.

Nations Culture Due to
Its Educational System

To the Editor OF The Star:
From educational point of view will
convince any one that money invested
in public schools. colleges. universities
and other high institutions Of learn
ing. produces fair and undiSputed ma
terial returns to village. town. city,
State and national communities in
addition to other economical, physical
and intellectual advantages.
In the public schools boys and girls.
men and women, young and old, learn
or should learn, besides the elements
of arithmetic. geography. history,
reading, writing. nature study, cook
ing, sewing, music and good art, new
and excellent ideas and conceptions
which will eventually modify or better
their actions and conduct in society.
Apart from these, they are taught
the cultivation of noble sentiments,
such as sympathy, friendship. cour-
tesy. to do fine work, respect for the
rights of others, love of their country
and flag. the spirit Of union and CO.
operation, obedience to law and patri-
otism.
With these instructions and knowl-
edge thus acquired, they come home
and take up their work, more convinc-
ing. full of enthusiasm, because they
feel the imperative necessity of living
a wholesome life. of having better
homes, elegant environments. to enjoy
the rights and duties of good citizen
ship and therefore, the productive ca
pacity and efficiency of the people
The public schools are necessary
because it is an essential function of
all republican form of governments to
provide free education to all children,
irrespective of creed or sect, especially
those of the poor classes. According
to latest survey, indicates that there
are between 100000 and 5000 900
young people in this country without
either educational or vocational op-
portunitieS. Remember, the state of
culture Of the American people is due
remarkably to its educational system.
while the wonderful progress of this
Nation is a result of the work of its
schools, colleges, universities and other
centers of the same character. Al
though less than per cent of the
men in America are college bred, yet
this small percentage has furnished
so per cent of the American Presi-
dents, Sc per cent of the Vice Presi-
dents, "a per cent of the Secretaries
of State, So per cent of the Secretaries
of the Treasury, "a per cent of the
Attorney Generals, so per cent of the
Speakers of the Lower House and 72
per cent Of the Supreme Court JUS
tees.
Another reason juStifies the estab-
hshment of public or private schools,
because it is the only way of trans
mitting such experiences and discov-
cries, together with the social inheri-
tance, the wisdom which has accumu-
lated since time immemorial, to the
present and future generations of this
land of the free and the home of law

Casual Quest for Beauty.

Some individuals, patiently enough,
pursue beauty professionally. The
search for loveliness in nature is their
business in life. They are artists by
vocation, skilled in the creative or
interpretative techniques. experienced
in holding up the mirror to the in
spirational values of the universe. To
some of them their fellows, less tai
ented, apply the title of genius.
But there also are a numerous
company of amateurs who practice
casual quest for the beautiful. Quietly
and humbly they go about their I'M
distinguished duty in the world.
metaphorical hewers of wood and
drawers of water, differing from the
ordinary types of humanity only in
being endowed with superior capac-
ity for appreciation, a more acute
power of perception and enjoyment.
1t is their function, presumably, to
constitute an audience for their more
abundantly gifted brethren. They are
the patrons of the arts, the public
which supports the artists. Without
them, without their help, culture would
languish, if not die
To illustrate the point, let the case
of certain japanese laborer be cited.

you up to now?" cried a friend, in
terrupting The answer was hesitant,
almost apologetic: "Oh, just studying

The instance of young couple who
not long ago came to the Capital
from Florida to look after the domes-
tic establishment of an elderly
widower. BY agreement, they are
permitted one evening week "out." !"
The difficulty is that they have an
affection for their employer. Leaving
him alone in his empty house, they
are Ill at ease, uncomfortable. He
might want them, they think, and
they hasten back early to turn down
the coverlet on his bed and perform
other little kindnesses which he prob
ably does not expect. Only a valet
and parlor maid, unacquainted with
the educational advantages which
thousands take for granted. they
nevertheless are motivated by the
lure of the search for the good and
