Tt would also eliminate, he sald, smuggling of aliens into the United States by ships under the seamen's law and smuggling of Chinese from Cuva and other southern places. Mr. Davis urged that a health certifi- cates be issued to the prospective immigrant before he salls for the United States and that more strin- gent medical examination be made on his entrance here. | He characterized immigration legis- lation as one of the most important subjects before the American people and Congress and said the proposed reglstration would eliminate many of the evils now apparent under the present laws, He expressed himeelf as heartily in favor of re: migration and denounc ties of radical agitators radical press. ———— DR.
