FUNDAMENTALS

Root for Restrictions.

Elihu Root, president of the Amer-
ican Bar Association, in a letter to
the committee strongly advocated the
absolute restricting of immigration.
He declared that 50 per cent of the
lawyers in New York are of alien ex-
traction, 15 per cent of these foreign
born, and all retained their native Eu-
ropean ideals.
A letter from Madison Grand, the
notorious author of the book ex-
pounding the theory of the superior-
ity of the Nordic race, was also read,
in which he stated that if the United
States continues to admit relatives,
in 300 years, Americans would be
completely Europeanized and the
population would be of an inferior
type. Representatives Sabath and
Dickstein opposed strongly the print-
ing of this letter in the record, de-
manding that Grant come in person
and submit himself to a cross-examin-
ation. The committee over-ruled the
objections of Sabath and Dickstein
and ruled to print the letter in the
record.
C. M. Ponanzio, the Italian sociolo-
gist of the University of Oregon,
urged the passing of a bill restricting
industrial immigration along the lines
of the Emery proposal to temporarily
admit laborers to meet the industrial
needs, but favored a general restric-
Gen of immigration.
Reverend McDowell, a former mis-
sionary in Mesopotamia, came before
the committee to plead the cause of
the 200,000 Christian Assyrians, who,
he declared, have been cruelly perse-
cuted by the Mohammedans. He
urged that these surviving Assyrians
be taken out of the prohibited class
of Asiatics, and that a special quota
be instituted to permit all those
Christian Assyrians who desire be
permitted to enter this country.
McDowell was interrupted by Con-
gressman Free of California, • mem-
ber of the committee, who remarked
that he had lived among these Assy-
rians but preferred to live among
rats, and he did not care if they were
all exterminated; they should never
be admitted to the United States.

NEW YORK.—(J. T. A.)—Max J.
Kohler, in an editorial on the "As-
pects of Pending immigration," print-
ed in the New York Times, accuses
the House of Representatives com-
mittee of deliberately violating
treaties of the United States with al-
most every country in the world
which expressly recognizes our obli-
gation to receive' their subjects not
coming within the clause of physical-
ly, mentally or morally diseased, or
paupers or those likely to become
paupers, or contract laborers, and to
grant them all the non-political rights
of our own citizens in general.
"On the faith of such treaties,"
continues the writer, "millions of
males have come over here, entitled
to remain and to have their wives and
minor children join them here, for
the courts have emphatically held that
it is an incident of such treaty right."

NEW HAVEN.—(J. T. A.)—The
committee on selective immigration
of the eugenics committee of the
United States has made public a re-
port recommending an immigration
law based on the census of 1890, a
more effective system of inspection at

We belim that a Motorist buys •utomobile insurance to
protect himself from loss through fire, theft, collision,
property damage, public liability or from all these causes.
This protection is given the buyer provided the policy is
free from jokers. Careful analysis of the Central Mutual
policy show. that it is clear and readily understandable,
that it contains no clause which might possibly leave •

loophole for evasion of settlement.

We believe that policyholders in any insurance company
are entitled to service which will give them the least
