Immiirrutiiiii comniiU.'C appeal's lo llUVC decided, after nil, lh;it there is an "emergency." The hill it has reported ' is reitiiriled us more drastic in some respects than the house hill. It roX)ses a limitation period of 15 montlus, lasting from April 1 I'liM to .June :!). 1022. durinif which inimijcrants are not to he aeee)led from any country to a greater extent than five per cent or the mmibtu from tliat country who were already in the United Slides in 1!H0. It is considered that this restriction would make the-niaximum admissions JiOD.OOO a year. The plan seems likely to meet with public approval. It sup plies what people have been demanding a breathing space while industrial reconstruction is proceeding, and timo to enable the new administration to frame a permanent immigration policy. Just now the immigration movement has fallen off consider ably, and it is easy lo underestimate the seriousness of the prob lem. The movement will surely start again in the spring, and will grow in volume as business activity revives. It is necessary to take defensive measures for this approaching period of pros perity that will act as a lure to the poverty-stricken millions of Kuropo, just as it is necessary to adopt a wise, continuous sys tem of regulating and handling immigration hereafter.
