| PAGE HIGHT BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE a SATURDAY, AUGUST 7, 1920" SPEEDING PLAN FOR IMMIGRANTS IS NEW POLICY| Newly .Appointed Immigration Commission Wants to Avoid Congestion BREAKING UP OLD HABIT New York. Aug. 6.—The slogan of ‘Ellis Island immigration officials henceforth is to be: “Speed the in- coming guest—politely.” This de- cision was recently announced by Frederick A. Wallis, newly appointed Commissioner of Immigration, after he had played the role of¢an immi, - grant for one night and had passed long and tiresome hours on the island waiting for a barge for New York. So convinced is Commissioner Wal- lis that immigrants are being neea- lessly detained on Ellis Island after they have been passed into this coun- try by immigration officials and that other reforms are urgently needed that he intends to move to the island from his New York home and devote both days and nights to his new work. Officials of the island, according to Mr. Wallis, are adherents of the the- ory that an immigrant’s time is worth nothing at all. Breaking Up Habit “IT am trying,” Mr. Wallis said, “to break up the bad habit of detaining immigrants on Ellis Island after they | have been admitted 'to the country. Ever since I took up my new duties I} have noticed great flocks of weary immigrants sitting for hours in the crowded railroad rooms of the island. I have found immigrants sitting in! these rooms who had been there all ~ :day long, having been passed by our inspectors early in the morning. “Last night I became an ‘immigrant’ myself and took my place on one of the benches in the railroad room. It was a long’time before an attendant ~s Leon Trotzky, commander-ir-chiet of the Bolshevik armies, who is di- recting the drive on Warsaw and typ- ical soldiers of the Red “Army-in- Rags,” which turned back the Polish army after it had taken Kiev.

I fell in with a group that was going to Washington to take a train and some of them told me they had spent a long and, tiresome day in the crowded rooms.” In the work of getting the immigrant through and out of New York swiftly, Commissioner Wallis will enlist the; aid of the railroad. companies. . Immigrants Spread Out “Immigration,” he explained,’ “no longer pours. itself out into New ‘York City, or into the crowded. metropolitan genters of the East. It now flows out across this big country to smaller towns; to the mines or mills.

But automobile ‘tires have more assists and fewer/errors in the box score than any other American commodity Statistics of the. United States De- partment of Labor show that time prices since August, 1914, have ha ! creased only 41 per cent—and ‘this in spite of the fact that wages of rub- ber workers and tire builders, es- pecially in Akron, have increased 119 per cent in the same time. “That makes tire prices nearer Battery Service If your starting battery is beyond repair we tell you so.

This holds i good on Goodyear Clincher tires | which are used by hundreds of thou- sands of owners of light cars, and when you figure the superior dur- ability and greater mileage ‘records! ot Goodyear Clinchers, their cost. is things. » easy for almost any tire to deliver the first 5,000 miles. - But when it comes to the second 5,000 miles, only the best tires made. can stand the gaff of hard wear and raad shock. And the fact that a major- ity of the 4,595,000 owners of light cars ‘in America today travel on Goodyear Clinchers proves that these tires give maximum mileage and show greater durability than any oth er small-sized tire’on the market. ‘Quality workmanship,’ quality ma- terial and scientific construction make possible these rare traits of en- durance in Goodyear Clinchers, while soins production makes possible the remarkably low prices. Such a winning combination as this is even better ‘than demon slugger Babe Ruth and demon hurler, Walter John- son playing on the same team.” SWEDISH PRICES MOUNT HIGH AS. WAR AFTERMATH We may complain about the high cost of living, but Mrs. Jutta Holm, here from Sweden. finds thing cheap here in comparison to prices in Europe. e The demoralizing effect of the war ‘roueht on by Germany affects all Europe, she says, resulting in extreme- ly high prices. Socialists are very ac- tive in Sweden now. she says, as a result of discontent brought about by unsettled conditions, but the reaction against them is. setting in.
