WHAT WILL PREVENT PERSON FROM ENTERING AMERICA Contract Labor, Anarchists, Those Who " Are Likely To Be Public Charges And Others Barred. There is a good deal of interest in immigration laws and their execution at this time, owing to the controversy f President Wilson and congress. The following is from a circular recently issued by Commissioner William Wil liamsi, 1. The immigration authorities do cline to determine whether or not an immigrant is qualified to land until , , after he has arrived and stbmitted himself for inspection. 2. The immigration tews apply to all alions, whether they have resided in the United States or not, Alien ret- jdents who go abroad, though with the intention of returning, are upon their Teturn nevertheless subject to inspec tion, and the $4 head tax is payable on thoir account. A person who has not yet obtained final citizenship pa jers, though he may have declared hi intention of becoming a citizen, is still an alien. 3. The immigration laws apply to all aliens, irrespective of whether they travel in cabin quarters or in the steer age. All steerage aliens are brought to Ellis Island for Inspection as a mat tor of course. Cabin aliens are usually inspected on board botween quarhntir.0 and the pier, and those only brouhgt to Ellis Island whose right to land is not clear. 4. The law provides that every alien who does not appear to the examining inspector to be "cloarly and boyond a doubt" entitled to' lend shall be de tained for "special inquiry." Such inquiry occurs before boards composed of throe officials with power to admit or excludo. 5. The principal excluded classes are as follows: Idiots, imbeciles, fooblo-mindod per son h, and epileptics. Insane persons and those who have , been insane within five years, Porson who at any time have had two or more attacks of insanity, Pauper and persons likely to bo como public charges. (8co pars, 8 and 9. ) . Persons afflicted with tuberculosis or with a loathsome or dangerous con tagious disonso (including trachoma). Porsons suffering from any mental or physical defect which may affect thoir ability to earn a living. (See par. 10. ) Criminals, polygamies and anarch ists. Prostitutes, procurers, and "pornons who are supported by or receive in , whole or in port tho proceeds of pros titution," IWhuu coining to perform manual labor under contract made abroad. (Hue par. 11.) I'erHons whoso tickets or passage has been paid for by any association, mu nicipality, or foreign government. Children under 10 unaccompanied by either parent, except In the discretion of the Secretary of Commerce and 1abor, (Woe par. 12,) . Immigrants should conio here qualified to land and not expect to qualify after arrival through gifts of money from persons under no legal obligation to muko them. The govern ment considers that they have but lit tle bearing ou the question of adnilssi bility, oven after tl'e immigrant has been placed iu possession thereof, es pecially when made after detention or exclusion, 7. Tho government is under no ob ligation to receivo or deliver to detain ed immigrants rem it Uncos sent them in Its euro, It dees so only as a mutter of convenience, at the sender' risk, and to the extent of its ability to transact this business without inter ference with official work. Oftentimes, through pressure of otficiitl work, do lay in delivery is unavoidable, H, In determining whether or not su immigrant is a pauper or likely to become a public charge the immigration authorities consider among other mat ter hi occupation, hi proficiency In the simo (including where relovant hi physical ability to pursue it and hi mental aptitude therefor), the number of persons who uiny bo depend ent upon him for ripport either here or abroad, hi chances of securing and liiililing employment and the amount of money in hi possession. 9. In the absence of a statutory provision no hard ami fast rule ran be laid down a to the amount of money an immigrant must bring with him. In most oases, however, it will lie tiim&fo fur him to arrive with less than 25, besides ticket to dcstlnntidn, while often ho should hav morn. In any event lo must have enough to provide for his reusunalilo want until filch time a be 1 likely to find em ploymeut. JO. Some of th physical defect considered in connection with the pro vision excluding persons suffering from any physical defect whieh may affect their ability to earn a living are: An kylosis of various joints, arterioeis, atrophy of extremities, chronic pro gressive diseases of central nervous system, chronic inflammation of lymph glands of the heclc, dislocation of hip joints with shortening and lameness, double hernia, goitre, poor physical de velopment, locomotor ataxia, psoriasis and lupus (chronic skin diseases), val vular disease fe heart, and well-marked varicose veins. Such physical defects are not per se ground for exclusion (as are idiocy, insanity, and loathsome or dangerous contagious diseases), but when present in aggravated form they usually affect the immigrant's ability to earn a living in fact, they frequent ly render him incapable to do so and thus operate to exclude him, irrespec tive of whether in 'addition he is a person likely to become a public charge. 11. The contract labor law as in torprcted by the Attorney General ap plies only to penons coming here to perform labor( skilled or unskilled) that is essentially manual. Further more, this law specifically excepts pro fessional actors, artists, lecturers, sing ers, ministers of any religious denomin ation, professors of colleges or semin aries, persons belonging to any recog nized learned profession, and persons employed strictly as personal or do mestic servants; also skilled labor, where labor of like kind unemployed can not be found in this country. To satisfy the immigration authorities that a given kind of skilled labor can not bo found unemployed, it is usually necessary to prove to them that proper advertisements for such labor have been published in a paper with a good cir culation and that either no responses at all or no adequate responses have been received. Such proof must be presented in a clear and convincing form and must be sworn to. See, how ever, paragraph 1 hereof, which still applies to such cases. IB. Children under 16 unaccompan ied by either parent may be excludod at the discretion of the Secretary of Commerce aud Labor. When admis sion is to occur, the minimum require ment are that the children shall en joy good health, shall bo going to close relatives who are able and willing to support and properly care for thorn, shall be lent to Bchool until 16, and shall not be put at work unsuitod to thoir years. Frequently a bond iB re quired as a condition of admission. Where it is claimed that tho parents of such children are in the United States, the latter will usually be hold until tho parents havo been heard from. 13. All detention expenses at Ellis Island are payable by the steamship company concerned, irrespective of whether tho immigrant is subsequently admitted or deported, except in tho few Instances covered by the provisos of section 19 or by section 37 of the immigration law and where deporta tion is stayed at tho request of a rela tive or friend. 14. Immigrant suffering from whnt aro knowu as "quamntinnblo dis eases" arc removed from the vessel by the quarantine authorities of the State of New York and remain In their cus tody (usually at Hoffman and Swin burne Islands) tiulil euro has been ef fected, wheu they Ure sent to Kllis 1 mIii ml for Inspection. Hoquests for in formation concerning such Immigrant ust be addressed to "Health Officer of the Port, quarantine Station, Stnten Island, N. Y." Qiiaruntinablo dis eases nt tho port of Now York now In- ludo not only cholera, yellow fever, smallpox, typhus fovor, leprosy, and plague, but also such acute contagion and infectious disease as measles, enr let fever, diphtheria, erysipelas, etc. 15. An alien may bo deported at any time within three year of his ar rival in case either (1) ho entered the United States in violation of law, or (2) ho entered without iuKwetion, or (3) he has beconio a public charge from a cause existing prior to lauding. An alien lu entered tho United States in violation of law If In fact ho be longed to one of the oxcluded classes, although such fact may at tho time of entry escaped attention. Usual In staiieej iu which an alien becomes a public charge aro where he .enter a public almshouse or a hospital or Is sent to pail. Whnt may be a "cause existing prior to landing" depend somewhat ou the circumstance of each case. Where the alien i found in a publln almshouse or a hospital the proof usually required to tow that hi presence there is due to a "cause existing prior to landing" 1 a medical certificate establishing tho existence of omo mental or physical disability prior to tho timo when he entered '.he country. 16. It I usually linprautlmhlo to answer Inquiries concerning Immigrants who ara detained nr expected to ar rive, or to consider evidence submitted on their behalf unless there are fur niched the name of tho vessel bringing them and it approximate dato of arrl vl.
