Eurooe are thronged with immi- grants eager to come to this coun try, but that most of these are un desirables, seeking to dodge the bur dens of their own people, and likely to foment trouble if allowed to come here. For this reason greater re striction of immigration is urged. Badly as America' needs labor, there ta more need of a protective ' Immigration policy If the abuses of ' America's hospitality are not 'to go on. .The first step in such a policy is the sifting of these people in their own countries, through the establish ment of bureaus in the great center abroad which shall examine every applicant for immigration to Ameri ca, ao carefully as to prevent the questionable from even heading this way. The next step is a better handling of the situatlAn here. Ex-m&yor Ole Hanson of Seattle, who has had some strenuous experience "with alien pop ulations, thinks there should be such a distribution of immigrants when they arrive here as will prevent the formation of large racial settlements. This is easier said that done. The natural trend of any hnman bein? is toward his kind. Even if separated originally they will tend to get to gether, and the prevention of this leads to big questions of right and of restraint. Probably a better solution is more viporons Americanization work right in these foreign settlements. The alien is not the only one -who does not mix. What of his American host who handles him with tongs because be is an alien. Instead of grasping him by the hand as an ambryo Amer ican? Who calls him "Guinea," "Wop," and "Hunky," and exploits Wm to the limit? The immigrant will clin to his old nationality until somebody shows him a' better one Oet only the good ones here, and make them glad they came. Then, if in spite of all efTorts, they remain obnoxiously alien, send them borne. THE .MATTER WITH LAIIOU "What's the matter with labor?" was the question put toy an assembl age of business men to Warren 3. Stone, grand chief of the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers. . "The matter with labor," he re plied, tersely, "Is the high cost of the commodities of life." Then he gave this simple analysis of the price situation : Costa are high for four reasons: The waste of mar. Inflation of cur rency, slackened production and the ereed of profiteers. It is am old story now, but seldom eo neatly summed up. Here, in a dozen words, is the , substance of many speeches and editorials. And what is the matter with labor is the matter with everybody. Congressman Scott Ferris, of Ok- Out of Season Al IX FIRST CLASS COXlITOX DRIED KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality and Service lahoma, chairman of the democratic congressional committee. Is as usual a loyal follower of President Wilson. In 1917 when Ferris voted against the amendment to increase the com pensation of soldiers to 130 a month he evidently followed a Wilson lead ership for Secretary of War Baker was on record in a letter in opposi Uon to the amendment. Recently w-hen President Wilson asked the house of representatives not to take a series of three-day recesses be cause of the Importance of legisla tion to check the high cost of living, Ferris spoke and voted against the proposed recess. Immediately there after, however, ha packed his grip and started for a two weeks" political campaign In Oklahoma. President Wilson la out on a tour of the coun try. Wilson and Ferris agree In holding congress to its work but abandon their own posts of duty. President Wilson objects to an amendment to the league covenant which would give the United States and Great Britain equal voting pow er In the league. To do so. In his opinion, would send the treaty back to conference, and, presumably, that would "break the heart of the world." 'To give Great Britain six votes to our one will break the pride of America, and break our nrestiee among nations. Secretary of War Baker, who was an opponent of preparedness before he got control of the war depart ment appropriations is now an ar dent advocate of preparation for the next war. And it cost the country something like ten billions' to con vert him. COSMO HiS UNSOLVED 'Continued from Page One. i president, asked official permission to leave the country because of "ill health." Both requests were granted and the two Tinocos were preparing to depart when Joaquin was shot down. A few months before he met his: death Joaquin began to take a; strange interest in spiritualism. Fre-j qnently he went to a small village! called Guadelupe where he consulted I a woman mMltiim and atoy Vila l..at ' visit seemed disturbed by what she'110 RENT djjnd for i;raln. had told him. That same afternoon he returned home and telephoned for his car but it was out of order and he decided to go for a walk. A block from- bis residence a man stepped from behind a tree and fired at Tinoco point' blank. The shot pierced his eye, causing almost instant death. Notwithstanding the suddenness of the attack, in the fraction of the section he remained alive, Joaquin had drawn his own revolver. The weapon was found In his clenched hand, every cartridge chamber full. On the day after the tragedy Joa quin was buried with military hon ors and 48 hours later the remain ing members of the Tinoco family, Including the former president, left here for Port Limon in special trains where they sailed for Klna-ston. .la. malca', and thence Intend to go to England.

"Cana da and the Vnlted States during the century of nelghborllness, have set an example for world emulation." was the declaration of Secretary of the Navy Daniels, at the reception tendered him here today by the Ca nadian club on his arrival with Ad miral 'Rodman and a squadron of the new American Pacific fleet. The head of the United States navy emphaslted the comradeship which had existed during the great war between' the fighting men of Great Britain and America and de clared that the world looked to the leaders In the allied cause to mobi lize for peace as they had mobilized and cooperated for war. Secretary Daniels continued: "The treaty which forbids forts and fortifications between the Unit ed States and Canada, or the pres ence of flehtlnir ships on the Great T.akes. speaks tmmpet-tontrued of the brotherhood of the two people. Is it not more than that? Does It not presaged the coming of the day. in the full fritlon of the league of nations, when other nations will feel sufficient security in International Justice not to feel the compulsion of maintaining powerful armies and continuing competitive naval build ing? "Canada and the United States during the century of nelghborllness have Indeed set the example for world emulation. We know each other too well for one to distress the other. It Is omlrance of each other which Is the parent of most national misunderstandings and hatred. In timate, contavt and clone association have taught us that In onr ideals, our hopes, our aims there Is no differ ence between the people dwelling north of the Invisible dividing line anil those living south of It."
