BURMffi UiIPE
Aged Ex-Queen of People
Has Deep Affection for
United States
RANGOON, - Feb. 1. Supaya-
lat. the aged ex-queen of Bur
mnda. has paid to a representa
tive of the Associated Press that.,
in her opinion, the BurmanS jare
not yet ready for complete home
rule.. Her Majesty is now C3,
years old and 'Is living In seclu
sion in Rangoon. This was the
first nress Interview she . has
granted since 1917. . . ..
When! asked for. her opinion
on the political question In iBur-
nt, Queen Supayalat replied: T
"The Burmans are hot yet
ready for complete home rule.
They are divided among them
selves, and need a strong gov
ernment to hold them together.
They say they are united, but
it is only a unity of the Bur
mese people." -.
Her Majesty spoke of her deep
affection for America, and of her
high , . regard ,! for the American
citizens with whom she had come
in contact. She said that whjle
she was exiled in . India, Ameri
can (friends had offered to take
her", to ...the United States,; and
when she ' was returning to Bur
ma In 1917, an American , mis
sionary had made . arrangements
for her comfort on the jour
ney.
Supayalat was the wife and
chief advisor of King Thibaw,
the last" Burmese ruler. Ifancja
lay , was then the national capi
tal. .Thibaw was not a strong
ruler, and, allowed most of the
affairs of state to fall into the
hands of his wife: Queen Supa
yalat - was largely responsible for
the repeated atrocities which
brought pn British intervention
and .the end of Burmese rule.
The Burmese were 'dissatisfied
under . system of heavy tax
ation, and rebelled in several
parts o(f the- kingdom. In 1816,
after failing to obtain redress for
alleged wrongs, the British Inau
gurated the third Anglo-Burmese
war by sending an army 1 to- oc
cupy Mandalay. ; '
. Upon the approach of this arm
ed force Thlaw and Supayalat
fied. -They were soon overtaken
however, and were exiled to the
western coast of India, .., where
Thibaw died In 191J.., After,, her
husband's death. Queen Su pay tat
was allowed to return .to her
own country and is now I livlnk
in retirement !rn 'Rangoon , with
one bf her daughters.
I The ex-qneen now clothes her
self in simple white cotton, 'after
the " manner of Indian vomn.
She Is active and energetic for
her age, displays a keen sense
of humor, .. and ; consumes dally
a larga pumber of imported
cigars. "'

R. P. Bonham',' a former Salem
boy and a graduate of-'Willamette-'
university,; but for almost 20
years in the immigration service,
was the principal speaker at the
Realtors' luncheon Thursday
noon. He talked pon the funda
mental principles Underlying im
migration the matter of assimi
lation, of compatibility, of health,
of. Ideals, which determine wheth
er Immigration will be helpful or
harmful.
- Mr. Bonham told of the vari
ous great movements that : bad
been either actually made, or at- 1
tempted, to America. The great
Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon
Immigration that made the real
America, he characterized as sate
and sane. But; after they bad
taken all the risk and had built
up a great country that looked
attractive to . others of sorter
stuff, the other viess desirable na
tions began to come in increasing-numbers.
T.he south of Eu
rope armies that shave come, and
the far-vaster, armies that-would
come but for the present exclu
sion laws, he pictured in vivid
terms. 5 ' ' - - f '-..''
He showed that In Hhe Orient
there are near 800.000,000 peo

told of the varlousi laws or agree

In cleaning up the foreign crim
inals who never could belong
"here. ' ;.' . " -
. Mr. Bonham especially urged
every Oregonian to take up with
the -delegates in Washington, the
matter of giving the department
more money to carry on Its work;
The immigration department took
In more than $6,000,000 last year
in fines and other receipts and
spent only f 4,(T0 0,000; the ex-A
cess went Into the federal treas
ury, yet, the department bad to
lay off-many of its men for lack
of funds at time when they were
most needed. ' To allow them to
use some! of the money they col
lect, and make ther , work: more
effective, he said, would almost
solve the whole immigration prob
