after having sworn that they will
accept no employment, and that they
intend to return to their homes, as
soon as they land offer their services
to American employers Cor welfare
bodies) for next to nothing, or cook
up business combinations.
They worm their ways into positions
of some responsibility, to the detri-
ment of Americans who work accord
ing to American standards. They then
arm themselves with contracts, secure
letters from persons or organizations
with whom they have ingratiated
themselves (by the European system
Of giving presents in one form or an
other, which Americans do not under
stand), and, then make brief trips
across the border to secure permanent
visas.
Rather less obnoxious, as q class,
are the aliens who desert from foreign
ships or who smuggle themselves
across the frontier, but they enter by
deliberate and conscious infractions Of
our laws, and their tactics when once
In the country are similar TO those Of
the false-pretense entrants.
Labor Clause Waived.
The contract labor clause might be
expected to afford partial curb to
these tactics, but it Is now unusually
waived when the aliens have American
friends. In some cases the pretext for
waving 1t Is that the labor which the
applicants offer Is of a class or kind
not readily available in this country.
More frequently the excuse is that
their primary motive for seeking per-
manent status is not their taking Of
the job in question, but rather their
reunion with relatives. Aliens who
have never seen their American rela-
tives prior to arriving here irregularly,
and whose previous separation from
these relatives had been voluntary and
definite, are nevertheless construed as
seeking admission primarily to join
them, when the contract labor clause
Is involved, in order to evade that
clause.
The last resort of aliens in the
United States who desire TO convert
their status into permanency, and who
have been unsuccessful in securing
positions or amassing funds, Is mar

a veiled threat of a rate war on

fact, even went beyond present con-
ditions, granting to the railroads the
right to drop rates still further in
event the water lines lower their
tariffs as a retaliatory move.

poses which were far from consistent
with the spirit of the law itself.
Between 1914 and 1917, that is until
the United States entered the World
War, the State Department was di-
rected, once Mr.. Bryan had resigned.
by secretary who has left behind the
record of his conviction that we must
eventually enter the war as the ally
of Great Britain. The American Am
baSSador at the Court Of st. James
was an even more uncompromising
advocate of Anglo-American partner
ship. And Col. House was, almost
from the start, completely responsive
to British urgings. The President,
who was sincerely anxious to be neu-
trail and the Congress, which was
fanatically resolved net to be involved
therefore found their efforts invariably
nullif1ed.
State Department Pro-League.
Today it is not to be questioned that
the Secretary of State is profoundly
pro-League at heart and enormously
influenced by the Ambassador at large.
Mr.. Norman H. Davis, who Is equally
pro-BritiSh and pro-League. All the
course of the State Department since
the crisis arrived has therefore been
inspired by the desire to avoid inter-
fering in any way with the attempts
of the League to coerce Italy. From
start to finish Judge Hull and those
whose advice he has taken have acted
upon the assumption that what was
at stake was moral and not politi-
cal question and that the main issue
was between the League and Italy and
not between London and Rome.

established and still-existing laws but
actually puts a handsome premium
upon their contravention, and it oper-
ates to select INSCRIPTIONS and some
times dishonest types for future citi-
zenship.
Our present immigration quotas
for they are still outstanding, although
the volume Of admissions is no longer
such as to leave them any force at
this time-were created because the
Congress and the people desired to
favor especially the entrance Of the
great northern races which predom-
mated so helpfully in the upbuilding
Of the country during the nineteenth
century. Approximately 81 per cent
Of the new arrivals were to be from
the British countries and approx
imately 80 per cent from the countries
OF Northern and Western Europe.
At the present time the immigrants
actually admitted are predominantly
from Southern and Eastern Europe, or
else belong to races which originated
in the Eastern Mediterranean. In the
fiscal year 1888 the British countries
furnished only 10 per cent Of our total
immigration instead of 81 per cent,
while Italy furnished 26 per cent in
stead Of the 81 per cent contemplated
by the quota system. Greece fur
nished almost 40 times the percent
age which was planned, and similar
situations have arisen for several
Levantine regions, while the Scandi-
navian countries and the Netherlands
are supplying smaller proportions Of
the aggregate than quota law in
tended.
Objectives Discarded.
Without any legislation, and with
out any substantial discussion, the
objectives intelligently established
after great travail have been COM
pletely discarded. Our reduced immi-
grafton is being drawn from the very
racial stocks which we had decided we
did not prefer.
There can be no question as to the
wisdom of the prompt discontinuance
Of large-scale immigration five years
ago by the adoption OF q new nterpre-
tation of the public charge clause of
the immigration act of 1917. On Sep
tember IS, 1880, approximately one
year after the depression commenced,
the White House issued a simple press
release to the effect that, in view Of
the unemployment situation, virtually
all immigrants are likely to become
public charges unless they are pos
sessed Of special sources Of support.
This decision was obviously both
timely and sensible. It was rapidly
but quietly modified, however, at the
instance Of certain immigrant aid So
cieties and alien-stock electoral groups
in our Eastern seaboard cities. The
theory was advanced and accepted
that aliens who have relatives or
friends IN the United States are not
Evening star., 1935-12-08

the applicants will make good future
Americans and llow-countrymen.
Under the arranger- ents which have
been more or less casually worked out
to deal with our immigration problem
today those applicants who can show
bit of capital, or who have been in
the United States and secured employ
ment, here are more than likely to
secure permanent entry upon simply
making trip to the nearest American
consulate in a neighboring country;
while applicants who do not have pc
cuniary resources, and who have not
been in the United States on a tenn
porary or illegal basis, are being re-
fused visas abroad in large numbers
without reference to their desirability
or their truly fundamental qualifica-
tions for success. The public charge
touchStone has thus actually resulted
In debarring good many high-type
applicants and in admitting a good
many low-type applicants.
Funds which an applicant has not
himself accumulated are likely to be
frittered away within few months
or years in the United States. In a
good many cases, moreover, funds
shown by applicants are not actually
theirs at all, but represent skilfully
concealed loans by interested persons,
or settlements made in Europe with
a view to getting rid Of unwanted
members Of q family.
Great ingenuity is exercised in con-
vincing American officials that aliens
are the owners of assets which in
strict truth belong to others. In q
good many cases trust funds are Of
fered which have been established by
naturalized friends or relatives. It is
also true that the capacity on the
part of an immigrant to amass funds
abroad constitutes no indication what
ever Of his general desirability, often
being based upon low ideals or stand
ards Of living. Certain human groups
have the acquisitive and boarding in
stincts just as do certain animal
groups.
Present Rules Unfair.
- The present poorly considered rules,
it cannot be too forcibly insisted,
operate with terrible unfairness toward
high-type applicants abroad who ac-
cept our new safeguarding policy in
proper spirit. It is the applicants
devoid Of moral restraints, those who
scheme to secure any sort Of entry.

rate reduction for the people of Will
mington.
With these two recognized experts
assisting the commissions own staff
of experts who have been studying the
telephone cOmpany's figures for more
than three years now, it is believed
that the commission will have one of
the tightest cases ever prepared with
which to confront a large utility COM
pany in court. 1t is agreed, of course
that the Southern Bell Telephone
Company will have the ablest staff of
lawyers which money can buy, as well
as an imposing array of engineers
and rate experts. But this time the
State Utilities Commission is e. pect-
ed to have just as good lawye-s ), en-
gineerS and experts as the telephone
company.
The trial of the telephone rate case
will begin here in Raleigh at a spe-
cial term of court called by Cover
nor j. G. B. Ehringhaus beginning
October %, with Superior Court
Judge G. Vernon Cowper, of Kinston,
presiding. The Utilities Commission
will be represented by Attorney Cen
eral A. A. F. Seawell, Assistant AT
torney General John Aiken and also
by Major L. P. McLendon, of Green's
boro, who has been employed to as
sist the attorney general and his staff.
1t will be recalled that McLendon was
the special prosecutor in the Ashe-
vile Central Bank and Trust Com
pany case in which Colonel Luke Lea.
of Nashville, Tenn, and Wallace B.
Davis of Asheville, president of the
bank, were convicted. He is recogniz-
ed as one of the most vigorous pro-
secutorS in the State.
While it is expected that the South
ern Bell Telephone Company will do
everything in it's power to preserve
it's right to charge it's subscribers in
North Carolina $4,000 a year more
than the Utilities Commission says is
fair, and just, the belief in many cir
cles is that the State has very
strong case. A good many think the
only ones who will benfit from the
lawyers who will represent the tele-
phone company.

GRATEFUL TO HENDERSON
PEOPLE.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
On Sunday August 4th, last, my
brother his wife and daughter, to-
gether with my three sisters were
travelling via automobile through
North Carolina en- route to Gulfport
Mississippi, when they met with a
most unfortunate accident hear Hen
derson. The folks were taken to the
Maria Parham Hospital, Henderson.
On August 9Th, Tuesday following.
my brother passed away as a result
of injuries sustained. The rest of the
folks remained at the hospital until
Saturday, August 10th
My purpose in writing you is to
express through your newspaper our
sincere appreciation to the nurses at
the Maria Parham Hospital. They
were most kind and alternative to
their duties, they were ever thought
full of their patients and did every
thing possible to make it as comfort
able as they could under the most
irving circumstances.
AS to DR.. Furman and DR.. Royster
and the rest of the staff we have
nothing but words of the highest
praise. they were at our constant
beck and call, and always responded
promptly. Our sincerest thanks to
YOU Drs. Furman and Royster and
the rest of the staff.
We could not be so unkind as to
omit our thanks to the citizenry of
Henderson as a whole and particular
lv to Mr. and Mrs. Dworsky. They
were so lovely to the entire family.
Mrs. Dworsky Immediately took COM
plete charge of my niece until the
family left. A day never went by
that she didn't come to the hospital
and inuuire as to the rest of the pat
tents and try to help cheer up the
morale of everyone. She is a bless
ing to a community. and Henderson
can well be proud of her.
AS to the firm of A. p. Barnes,
Undertakors, we extend to him and
20 Mr. Blaylock, associated with him,
cur sincerest thanks. Their task was
the most unpleasant of all, yet they
were so sympathetic in their efforts
to console the family they were 50
sympathetic in the manner in which
they rendered their services, that
words really fail us to adequately ex-
press to them our most sincere appre-
citation.
Most respectfully yours,
David Bernheim.
