’ V THE IMMIGRATION POLICY.
It .has been suggested that with the
establishment of peace there will be
a “rush of immigrant labor to America
. legislation even being urged in some.
actuarters to stop immigration entirely,
"on the plea that the labor market
‘V'would be flooded and our people now
u the army or engaged in war work
be unable to find employment.
There is really little prospect of" any.
such conditions; rather the contrary.
301‘ many foreigners now employed here
are anxious to seize the first opportun
«fly :to return to homes and families
I'made desolate by’ the war. Fu rther-
‘- morethe need of labm in the o ounn it s
which for four years have suffered dile-
attraction and decay will lead to a unn-
'paign in those countries to prevent
‘ emigration andl render staying at home

aagin be extended “71111 the unquestion-
jng cordiality which has marked it
“heretofore. .
When these people come thronging

secretary Daniels put the matter
Eclearly and frankly in explaining the
If ‘rogratn to the house committee on
naval affstits. Congress is asked to
motion a three-year building plan,
calling for the expenditure of many
hundred millions of dollars for new
ships. Theprofessed purpose otthe
’ ' 'crnment is to bring our navy ‘to
.1111:- with Great Britain’s by 111-1
our 1925. And there is no intention
“-t stopping there Secretary Daniels
eoks, as President Wilson did “17/
‘9 years ago, of creating "in-
rably the greatest navy in the
em
,We have long liv ed under the protect
an of the British navy rather tban;
The upholding of ’the Moire
Irenlly approve of
navy if they can help it, and do not
the principle of
competitive armament. Wherefore it
is proposed that, along with the me
tllorization of this great building
program, congress explicitly declare
that it can be suspended at any time,
by order of the president. if there shall
have been established, with the co-
operation of the United States, "an in-
ternational tribunal competent to se-
cure peaceful determination of dis-
putes between nations."
- So explained and qualified, the. big
naval program seems at. once patriotic
and sensible. Prompt and favorable
action by Congress will no doubt exert
a powerful influence at Versailles, and
thereby help to make unnecessary the
proposed expenditures, with the hard-
ships and the hidden dangms lhev may
telltail.

sUFFRAGE IN GERMANY.
German women are [0 \‘OlE‘ now.
German estimates place the
21,000,000 to 18,000,000
men. That seems to give the women
political control of Germany. And in
view of the fact that German women
of voters as
have. never taken any part in public
life, it will be interesting to see what
they do with it;
One thing is. sure: They couldn’t
do any ,worse than their men have
done a fact clearly indicated by that
