FIFTEEN MILLIONS WOULD COME
ONE of the pronounced features of the world readjustment
period is the terrific immigration wave that has set in
towards the United StAtes."'-Figures on' the number of
people desiring to move to this country are simply staggering,
i Fifteen million, men, women and children of all classes and
races in Europe are anxious for a home in the United States, ac
cording to figures presented to our immigration bureau by rep
resentatives of 17 trans-Atlantic steamship lines.. Five million
Germans and Austrians are listed as desiring to come as soon as
peace is made between this country and Germany. There are
also many applicants from Holland and the Scandinavian coun
tries. But Poland leads all other nations in the number of pros
pective candidates for a place in the American melting pot. In
one day the Polish foreign office is said to have had 311,000 ap
plications for passports.
Generally speaking the would-be new comers are of a de
sirable type. Immigrants from Europe may be assimilated and
in this respect their coming raises no such problem as is involved
in the question of oriental immigration.
But naturally such a rush to this country will result in disas
ter if it is not properly handled. .These people desire to migrate
to America at a-time when unemployment looms as a problem
of the near future. If there is to be a shortage of work for the
people now here what will the newcomers do? May they not
find their dream shattered when they arrive? Of course it may
be argued that unemployment threatened by the period of de
pression following price reductions is no criterion to go by. It
will not be long until industry is moving again at full speed. But
. even at that the spectacle of a constant stream of immigrants
i$ not to be underestimated. For the sake of our own workers
and for the sake of the immigrants themselves there must be ad
equate safeguards or we will pay the price.
Canada is endeavoring to meet the situation by a change in
the amount of money ah immigrant must have. For a single
man, who comes as a worker, skilled or unskilled, the minimum
limit has been raised from $50 to $250. It is further provided
that where an immigrant is accompanied by his family he must
have at least $250 for each child over five years and under 18
and $125 for each child over 18 years of age.
: ; There are those who will regard such financial requirements
as harsh upon poor people. Yet the soundness of insisting that
immigrants have money on which to subsist until they can find
a place in the new land cannot be questioned. It may be fur
ther said that the financial requirement alone is not sufficient.
'Xhere is much'merit in a literacy test and in tests that relate to
character. Arcerica cannot afford a flood of anarchists or oth
er? who are not mentally in tune with American principles. ' A
penniless immigrant of good character would be more of an as
set than a criminal or an agitator with $250 in his pocket
. That there should be a rush of Europeans to this country fol
lowing the war is natural. Europe is so oppressed with war
debts that it is logical people wish to escape such burdens when
they can do so. .j To such people the United States is the land of
hope . Our people have not been bled white by the war and our
country is large-enough to sustain a much heavier population
than we have. This is particularly true of the west We may
iook for steamship lines that will bring European immigrants di
rectly to our western ports via the Panama canal. Such a thing
. would be an innovation, indeed, for the northwest but we may
reasonably expect just that experience if the present tendency
of Europeans toward America is continued.
The proper curbing of immigration is to be one of the big
4 tasks before the new administration. It will be a complicated
task and one that should be studied carefully and then acted up
on in a vigorous, comprehensive manner.

BOSTON. Dec. 3. (A. P.) The
Massachusetts Golf Association yester
day aligned itself with the United
States Golf Association in the contro
versy ' which threatens to develop a
conflict over the government of golf
in this country. The executive com
mittee of the state association drew up
formal resolutions regretting the ap
pearance of dissension, expressing
strong opposition at the suggestion of
supplanting the U. S. O. A. with an
other body and adding a hope that
means might be found of harmonizing
diverse interests. :
; i THE RATE DECISION
BY THE decision of the interstate commerce commission
Portland is given a small differential over Seattle and As
toria as to shipments from the territory south of the
Snake river.' The effect of this ruling upon the farmer is not yet
clear and perhaps will not be known until it is shown whether
the Portland grain interests propose to give the farmer the bene
fit of the differential or will merely meet competition in buying,
As to the movement of grain, Portland's advantake in rates may
be offset by the fact there is a 100 mile river haul to Portland
whereas Astoria is close to the sea and Seattle also has wonder
ful harbor facilities.
The fact that a premium was offered for the small local bond
issue, authorized at the recent election, bears evidence of im
provement in the. money situation. These bonds draw six per
cent and it was not lonsr since when no such, bonds.could have
been sold exxcept at a discount. . fcHk, IiAui

The apparent strong export demand for American wheat
i.fter our usual surplus has already been sold seems to change
the face of the market. We may yet see prices go up to a point
where our farmers who have not sold may not be so downcast
