ADMITTING REFUGEES

. President T u m a n has an.
nounced that he is considering
asking Congress to admit Euro
pean refugees into the United
States, regardless of existing
immigration quotas.
With all respect for the Pres.
ident's praiseworthy motives and
his desire to relieve human mis-.
cry, Congress should promptly
reject any effort from any source
to relax the immigration laws.
If anything, t h e y should be
made more stringent.
The United States has entered
a very critical period. We have
economic problems of terrific
magnitude to solve. It will re.
quire all h e intelligence our
citizens possess to solve t b e m
without grave consequences and
great suffering.
Frank ~, We do not know
whether our economic system
will stand the shocks that appear
to be in store for it. We are in an
inflationary spiral. which. if not
checked, will lead inevitably to q
disastrous depression.
Out of such a depression any
thing might emerge.
With the possibility of large
unemployment ahead, it would
be the sheerest kind of folly to
invite the refugees of the world
to pull their c h a IRIS up to our
table to share the meager fare
that may be in store for US.
The influx of hundreds of thou
sands, if not a m Ii o n or two
Europeans and Asiatics. would
depress our standard OF living,
decrease our employment and in
crease the dangers that confront
us.
1t is all very we'll to argue that
we should a d m i t only a few
thousand of this race or that. 1t
will not end there. In fact, it
would not settle the re fuge e
question to admit onlv a few te
the United States. What about
the rest?
The pattern of every past at
tack en- our inning ration laws has
been to a d mi t "only a few
Hindus or Chinese OF others. A.

soon as we have admitted them,
the argument is made that we
are discriminating against other
races by not admitting them, too.
This magazine forecast at the
time it was proposed to repeal
the bans on Oriental immigration
that it was just a forerunner of
similar attempts in behalf of
Of other races. That is why we
opposed it. That is why we con-
tinue to oppose it.
We are now asked to admit
some SO, 900 homeless Jews whom
the British do not want in Pales-
tine and who have been persecut-
ed by the Germans. the Poles and
others.
1t is an embarrassing request
because anyone who protests
runs the risk of being branded AZ
anti.semitic by these who agi-
tate to love our immigration
barriers.
But even as the request is
made for the Jews, tho admission
is made that ''other Europeans"
should be admitted as well. What
others? Where from? How many?
Those questions are not an
swered. Instead an appeal is
made to the natural human in
stinct and American soft-heart.

The importation Of thousands
Of foreigners will mean either
that they force Americans out
of their homes or they will have
no more homes here than they
had in the lands they came from,
1t will not relieve the plight of
the refugees to bring them into

condition in the United States
today.

 Starting Wednesday will be shown one of the years best Tech nicolor musicals, Holiday in Mex ico," with star-studded cast in- cluding Walter Pidgeon as the TO- mantle ambassador, Ilona Massey as nightclub singer, Jane Powell as the adorable young daughter of the ambassador, Roddy Mcdowell as the young man who gets his first shave and smokes his first pipe. Jose Iturbi not only plays charac- ter part in the new production, but also reveals his brilliant talent on the piano keys and his equally tal- ented sister Ampara joins him in a piano duet in one of the films most spectacular musical sequences. On top of this, Iturbis two grand daughters were enrolled to play themselves. Xavier Cugat not only appears with his orchestra, but turns crooner for the musical. The famed Latin-American band leader makes his screen singing debut in the film, warbling "Yo re Amo Mucho."
