When snowstorms of last winter
tied up railroad traffic completely,
a sled equipped with 125 horse
power aviation motor and with run
ners, (nine feet long and six focft
wide patterned after sklls, carried
passengers from town to town. The
sled has been used dally through
the winter to carry passcngdrs and
freight GO miles on the Lake of
the Woods. Tho trip requires four
hours, according to the owners of
the sled, who say it enables people
across the lake), who formerly spent
three days In reaching Warroad, to
make the trip In two hours.
There is extensive winter fishing
on the .luke, most of it done 50
miles from here. It was formerly
dificult to haul fresh fish to shin-
ping ftcllitictj by teum without Its
spilling or freezing, but the sled
has remedied that Vendition.
The sled also serves for livery

IDE REPORT
WASHINGTON, Mar. 29. Miss
Lillian Kussell, famous actress, sent
abroad as special immigration com
missioner, reports to Washington that
in her judgment two drastic changes
should be made in immigration laws, j
The first would prohibit all immigra-,
lion for five years, the second would ,
provide that all immigrants couiini?
to the country live here for fwenty-ona
years before being permitted to vote.
"Our own males must live here for
that length of time before being giv
en the ballot, why not aliens?" Miss
Russell argues.
Miss Russell believes that no immi
giant should be permitted to remain
here who will not within a given
length of time, lcnrn to read and writa
English; and that immigration offic
ials should come over on all boats
bunging immigrants, talking with
those who will make their homes here,
learning their ambitions, and thus be
ing able to direct them where' they
should go in America for their own
and the country's best good.
Speaking of her belief in the need
to restrict immigration for five years,
Miss Kussell said:
"Europe is ready to release thou
ands ot immigrants, most of them
uii'lesiiable. the moment our restiic
tions are lifted. It is for us to stem
such a destructive title by legislation
which will admit to residence here only
constructive labor. We need farm
workeis, not lower Fast Side denizens,
which arc the sort most eager to
el'.:er here."
