Foi- a number of years the nation's immifrratien jxilicy hasj

.'Occasionally the attention of the public is called to tlr-.-j
fact that the I'mied States is an ajriicuitunil as well as an

view of iinmiRration can prevail where it is known to all
that labor shoitajres in the factories and mines occur only
under such aluuumal conditions as created by war, while
the shortage of f;'im lalvr is at all times senous.
: The Liberal Immigration league proposes to assijni fresh
immigrants for a leasona'ole length of time to such tori i
torjes ad iccu)utions for which the individual is peculiar! ,'
adapted. Tnlike the politicians the league would not stop
all immigration when factory workers found competition
uncomfortable or when factory and mine operators reported
