eign language papers are charged with most serious
offenses. They have been responsible in the main for
warped and twisted evil shapes found among millions
of aliens. The Yiddish press of America with which we
are acquainted would no doubt welcome a careful, un
biased examination of its policy with a view to deter-
mining how much it has contributed to our present un-
happy state. The Italian, Polish, Russian and Czecho-
Slovakian publications would in all probability endorse
an investigation to establish how much they are at fault.
We purposely exclude the German, Danish, Swedish
and Norwegian press for they no doubt are not partners
in the crime.
The learned professor addressed an English-speak-
ing public, with nativist tendencies. He probably went
on the assumption that anything he would say needed
no proof inasmuch as the alien was already damned
and his professional prestige would be sufficient.
The alien as whipping boy is not merely for the edi-
fication of the Nordics as some may imagine. It is all
a part of the propaganda calculated to make the immi-
gration laws more stringent and to purge the country
of those already here who do not measure up to Nordic
standards.
When Albert Johnson offers his latest bill to Con-
gress, it shall be backed by this coterie of eminent pro-
fessors from Madison Grant to Robert De C. Ward.
Our "free and equal tradition" is giving way to the
"well born" of monarchist Europe. How far will it
go?
