THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN. POETLAXD. DECEMBER 1920 mm CK jLhJ ra ATP u; KEW TORK, Dec. 4. America should have some say as to who should be allowed to emigrate to this country and where the homeseekers should go when they get here, in the opinion of Commissioner of Immigra tion Wallis. He said in a survey of the immigration situation made pub lic here today that an army of 15. uoO.000 foreigners is clamoring to migrate to this country, and the United States has no means available to stop those not wanted. Distribution of Immigrants to farms and mines, where laborers are greatly needed, instead of permitting them to clog up already congested cities, where no more inhabitants are wanted, would help to avert the men ace created by the unparalleled influx of foreigners through America's front door, according to the commissioner. More than 1.000.000 of these aliens "many of them refugees in the strictest sense of the term" will en ter the United States during the cur rent fiscal year, the commissioner said. Some of them, he added, will find their way to farms, where they are greatly needed, but the great . majority will flock to cities, which is particularly undesirable in this pe riod of readjustment because of food and housing conditions. Municipal officials In several cities have importuned the immigration of ficials to stop sending immigrants to their cities and to induce them to se ttle on farms, the commissioner de clared. "There are thousands of people out of work in those cities today," he said. "These added thousands of new comers only make conditions worse. They cannot find work. They are not producers, and they remain in the cities eating up food that is scarce enough at present. "I have bten told by the vice president of one of our greatest west ern railroads that in the Dakota;; next year the harvest will be less than 60 per cent of what it was this year because they cannot gel suffi cient labor on the farms. Proper dis tribution of the immigrants, if . it could be brought about by legislation, would circumvent this, theatening sit uation. '"It would send thousands to the farms, thus dealing one of the most effective blows at the high , cost of liviTig. It seems to me that much could be done in encouraging these people to take up small bits of ground and work them. T think the govern ment ought to help out." Commissioner Wallis suggested th establishment of a preferential select ive method of admitting immigrants from the 15.000.000 who. he believes, are trying to come to America. "Dut." he added, "preferential ad mission cannot be instituted without first amending the constitution. Nu merous suggestions have been made for the handling of the coming mil lions, and there are many bills before congress on the subject." Of the present literacy test, he de clared "there never was a greater farce." and that it affords "no safe ty to the country." Some of the I'-l radicals confined on Kllis island re cently could read and write in several languages, lie said, and could have passed any literacy test devised, but "they were destructive citizens and bad people for this country." "We need tests that will determine whether a man or woman intends to bo. a real worker and a real law abiding citizen. Many people who cannot possibly pass the literacy tost will make the most substantial citi zens. "I believe we should have some say as to who is to be allowed to come here and where they should go. Per haps we could have a reciprocal agreement with other nations to have our t-presentatives on the other side 9f the ocean to determine who shouli emigrate. We do not want undesir ables and 1 would rather send back a thousand good men than let one bad man come into the country. "Our slogan is: 'When In doubt, de port.'
