WASHINGTON, D. C. May 11. Th United States Is operating under an immigration law restricting the number of immigrants from any country to three per cent of th number of persons of that nationality settled in this country at the time of th census of 1910. This law was essential following the war. With Europe laid to waste, poor, its money, greatly depreciated, with little outlook of hope. for millions of the poorer classes, it was known that these millions would flock to the western world th United States first as a land of promise, where they might live and work. But in such cases, American citizens had to be looked after first. Foreseeing th end of the war boom to business and manufacturing, the congress decided to protect American labor from cheap foreign competition. A law of this sort, naturally hits hard in individual cases. Excluded aliens, or those ordered deported, may appeal from these orders in many cases, the appeal being mad to the labor department. Until comparatively lately, these appeals have gone to the secretary of labor, Mr. J. J. Davi3, or the assistant secretary of labor, Mr. E. J. Henning. So great has this volum of business become, however, that a board of review has been appointed, which passes upon all such cases, recommending the final action which still rests in the hands of the executive heads of th labor department. This board is faced with a tremendously hard and unpleasant set of duties. Practically every appealed alien case has behind it a dramatic, pathetic or tragic phase which cannot help but make an appeal to anyone whose heart is not of granite. But the sworn duty of this board of review Is protection of th United States and its citizens. As in any court of law, the single case before th board is not the sol consideration. If a point

or two is stretched her ana tnere, while it may be and usually Is the humane course to take, It establishes a precedent which lawyers would not be slow to us to th utmost limits in similar future cases before th board. Th board is faced with th necessity of appearing, on occasion, to be cold and heartless toward som alien individual or family, but the underlying reason Is for th benefit of hundreds of thousands of other individuals and their families. Propaganda It Used. Th present immigration statute has been the target of propaganda by special racial interests which have been hit hard by it. Also, many of the cases are conducted by lawyers. So often lawyers will make a soulstirring appeal to allow some alien, ordered deported, to remain in this country. The order has been issued because the alien, who may be of a family of perfectly acceptable immigrants, is defective mentally or physically. It is easy for a lawyer to dwell upon the undisputed fact that the hundred million odd people of the United States are not going to be harmed by admitting this one manor boy or girl and thus prevent misery and heartache In breaking up a family. It would b th easy way and the way dictated by considerations of humanity and compassion to let the alien remain. Also, it f alls within the discretionary powers the law gives to the secretary of labor. But one decision of this sort would bring down upon the heads of the members of

the board of review an avalanche of similar cases, with the reproachful nSS-f lawyers in th cases pointing to this single decision as a preecdent which should be followed. Unfortunately for the peace of mind of the labor department and th board ?LrnJd?W 0t 1111 of toe steamship companies have tried hard to assist in carrying out the law. Aliens in excess ' of -national quotas have been brought in. These poor people must b sent back. Th discretionary powers of the labor department do not extend bo far that uter disregard of th law may be included. Th offending steamship lines now have to bear the expense of carrying these bewildered people back to their starting point. The saddest feature of the whole thing, perhaps, is th fact that these helpless people,-who hav looked forward for years to coming to this land of promise, unable to comprehend anything about th whole business, are sent back to the misery they have, tried and failed to leave behind them. The steamship companies were greater offenders under old immigralaws , than they are at present. .T.TT3 13 becauso under the so-called three per cent law." the fine for bringing to this country every alien certain to be turned back, is the sum of $200. Under th old law. the fine was only $100, and th steamship line could keep th passage money and even charge for taking back th aliens refused admission at American port3 or ordered deported after their cases hav been examined. Th new law compels the steamship companies not only to refund the passage money originally received, but to take the undesirable aliens back to the point

where they boarded th ship, entirely fre of charge. Naturally, with d dead loss facing them, th lines have been more careful about how they fill their steerage spaces with this human freight. Many Chinese Cases. There are other immigration laws and agreements which furnish cases for the board of review to handle. Th question of Chines immigration is always a perplexing thing. It is an open secret that Chines laborers are smuggled Into this country to some extent. Many of them are stopped, but th department of labor has not th funds with which to draw a cordon tight enough to guarantee absolute exclusion. In Chines cases and in som others th draft records compiled during the war are of considerable assistance, giving a means of information formerl ly impossible. A Chinaman will swear to being born in Los Angeles. His oath will b supported by other Chinamen. They will swear that they have known him for a long time, ever since boyhood. The case will appear to be perfectly simple. A mistake has been made, and the Chinaman actually Is an American citizen, having been horn in the United States. It is at this point that the draft records come into the situation. It will b found that when h registered under th draft law, this" Chinaman swore that he was born in Canton, and thus escaped military service under the plea of being an alien. The board's course is then clear, and the Chinaman is sent back to his homeland. The diseased, the criminal, th politically undesirable, the physically unfit, the feeble minded or down-right insane, the illiterates, th deaf and dumb, as well as aliens in excess of th quota allowed th country from which they came, continually are knocking at th one wide-open doors into this country. Stowaways and those likely to become public charges

arrive with their pitiable pleas to be allowed to remain. T3iose already her of the same nationality add their tearful pleas and often, considerable Influence to th efforts -of these new arrivals to try-to break down th law, which congress in its wisdom has found necessary for thprotection of America and American labor. Th board of review, naturally th point of atack for th biterness engendered by th disappointment, has the unwelcome task' of disposing of all these cases. Actually, th secretary of Labor finally acts but he is frank to confess that th unpleasant and heavy task sometimes 70 or 80

cases ar acted upon in a single day falls- on th shoulders of this instrument . of the government headed by Chairman Rob Carl White, and con-! slstlng of . V. Powderly, once commit sloner general of Immigration, A. M Reitzel, E. J. Shaughnessy and Georgo W. Bope.
