Chicage att ian Pacific Bidg.; Boston office, faz Fransiove Special Represent nae New Tork offices, No Dumping Allowed HE foreign invasion of the United States has been checked. The bill putting an end to unlimited immi- gration has been signed and is now a law, And none too soon. Wholesale employers of labor can no longer recruit armies in the back alleys of Europe to be flung at the ranks of American labor, to beat down wages, undermine unions and lower American standards of living. Nor can foreign nations any longer send us their off- easts, their cripples and misfits. Neither can they con- tinue to exploit sections of our country virtually as de- pendencies inhabited by their colonists who owe allegiance and everything else to the mother country and nothing to u Japanese exclusion becomes the law of the land along | with the rest of the bill. Japanese jingoes, of course, will gay it was because of their race and seek to make trouble » for us in Japan, China and the Far East generally, But ? Japanese statesmen know differently, | ) The Japanese were barred for economic, not racial, rea- fons. Had they come to this country and scattered, Jap i nese exclusion would not now be law. But they settled | in colonies, retained their native customs, put their wives and little children to work in the fields, labored seven | days a week, lived in shacks little better than stables and thus cut the ground from under their better-living American neighbors. To compete with the Japanese, Americans had to adopt the same standards and this > they neither could nor would do, » The Japanese, in shor?, refused economic assimilation. : "They had a fair chance. And they failed. So, henceforth = they are barred. That is, the coolies are. High-class | Japanese can continue to come here as before, and no * doubt will. Trouble may or may not lie ahead over exclusion. It @epends on the Japanese. If a majority are backward ) enough, and sufficiently race-conscious and thin-skinned, to take it as an affront to their race, they may try to make trouble. Otherwise, time will smooth their present ruffled spirit. A Promise Kept IVE 'em credit. The senatorial clique which framed the 1920 re- publican platform wrote its purpose in this sentence: “We undertake to end executive autocracy and to re- Store to the people their constitutional government.” End executive autocracy? Ask Coolidge if they haven't kept their promise. La Follette Clears the Air ENATOR LA FOLLETTE has cleared the political air by his letter about the St. Paul convention. He says: f (1) The communist party believes in revolutionary action, which is force, instead of action thru the ballot (2) Therefore no real progressive can have common Cause with communists. (8) Communists control the treasury and the prelim- inary credentials of the so-called third party convention at St. Paul. i (4) Therefore real progressives should stay away from that convention. (5) Both old parties have been controlled by campaign contributors and sinister influences as shown by scandals in administration and legislation—oil, department of jus- tice, shipping board, veterans’ bureau and so on and so on. (6) Both old parties have a chance to purge themselves at their national conventions by smashing machines and Tepudiating the control of invisible government. (7) Unless the old parties do this the voters should be given an opportunity to repudiate them. ws It is plain that La Follette expects this opportunity to _ be offered by the political conference at Cleveland on July 4, writing a progressive platform and naming an inde- pendent presidential ticket. A Dog at the Bar HE court bailiff hummed his “O-yeze,” the county : judge ascended the bench, the array of expensive Tawyers, for and against, took their places at the trial tables. The clerk began droning ihe names of prospec- tive jurymen and the lawyers, pro and con, engaged in the monotonous querying that always precedes the se- Tection of a jury. All the pregnant, costly and ominous Machinery of a court of justice was in motion. What was the issue at stake? The reputation of a dog! It was in Oregon, Illinois. Two young women were ages in the sum of $5,000, claiming “Bowser,” his dog, ¥an at their automobile, became involved in one of the wheels, turned the car over and injured them severely. The dog was killed. In behalf of himself and “Bowser, Vogeler denied the charge. “Bowser” was not that kind of a dog. He never ran at man, boy, wagon or car. He ‘was known to the best citizenry of the community as a sedate, self-respecting, lovable and loving friend of all. And the evidence in the case, furnished gladly but ex- ' pensively by the most prominent citizens, sustained Voge- Jer and gained a verdict that left ‘“Bowser’s” reputation _ without question or stain. And why not justice for a dog? Why should not man’s expensive law agencies give justice to his best friend? _ That friendship is not so easy for a dog that it can be | ruthlessly disregarded because of the financial cost. No, : indeed. LETTER V RIDGE MANN Dear Avridge Mann: Tune 2, 1924. I notice you write one of your poems on most any subject your friends usk. I wish you would— : Sing us a ong of the Silvery Way, where our autos smoothly glide; a road where the giant forests sway, as they tower on either side. A rong of a woodland late nearby; a song of a rocky glade, where the foaming waters, toring high, a shining rainbow made, A noonday camp by a forest stream; a climb up a mountain's side; then, with fish and flowers and shells that gleam, we start on our homeward ride, Sing us a song #0 we all may know of the won- dera'that ‘round us Jay—of lake and river and mountain snow, and a glorious summer day! ‘ Pai H.
