to iricK nseir nun the ueller that It could escape the m nacj or Ku

hope (his is true also of America's attitude, for as .Mr. Warburg says:
"Whether we ipluy tho ostrich or not, our International finance and

THE OFFICE CAT

Secretary of Labor Davis lias arrived at an opinion about admission
of immigrants that others formed some time ngo. "ATter more than
n year of administration 0f the H per cent law,'' lie says, "I have
reached the conclusion that blood, nn'ntnl, physical and moral exam
inations should bo heltl where the Immigrants einbar'k. The restriction
ban been of benefit, but types which do not fulfill our requirements or
me inimical to our best intercHts are not barred."

long time, and It would himmu thai Hiil'liclent evidence would now be In
hand to permit tint eniict niOiil of wise legIlation. Tho emergency law
was continued for the time being and a final soluiton of tho problem
Is not at hand. Sccreini-y DiIvIm point out that the best of the alteuH
