With THE Women 0“
BY LIBS. LILIAN CAMPBELL
_';sr
Today
Lumbering is a little out of the line
of most Women. One is apt to think
of it as a distinctively man's job.
However. one woman. Mrs. John S-
Purdy. of Houston. Texas, has not
only mastered the details and as-
sumed the management of.one lum-
ber company, but organized a second
in a. nearby town.”
The'Purdy L‘ux‘nberCo. was organ-
ized in Houston in the early years or
the married life of Mr. and Mrs John
S. Purdy. During its first years Mrs.
Purdy was chiefly taken up with
home dtuies and the roaring of her
three children. She absorbed lum-
ber talk, however. and made some
buy g trips with her husband.
Wh the children grew older she
went with him motoring about the
state sizing up timber and real es-
tate. It was during the war, how-
ever, that Mrs. Purdy got her first
actual experience in the business and
learned to know lumber and lumber
prices. So many of the workmen-
went to war that she was obliged
to assist her husband in the yar
About etwo years ago Mr. Purdy
died and Mrs. Purdy took “his place
as president of the company. She
has not only carried on the old com-
pany's business with success; but she
recently organized another one with
its headquarters in Harrisburgh sub-
urb of Houston. She is'the only “'0~
man in the state of Texas. if not in
the United States, to head two lum-
ber companies.
Mrs. Purdy went to Texas to live
when she was a small child. She was
educated in mansion public schools
and says that her most intensive busi
ness training was obtained during
three years of clerking in a. book»
store 'owned by m. Purdy. This was
before her marriage. .
"The lumber business is all right
for a woman if she has the right‘
kind of help." says Mrs. Purdy, who
'
or for a. venture."
\Vhile she relies on her 'fsnap"
judgment, she declares she could not
run the business without the men
who have grown up in the atmos-
phere of the yard. and says her suc-
cess and the profits or the business
depend on their honesty and integ-
rity.

NGTON. Sept. 3.——Al-
thzgsatlte immigration law passed
in note. from about 858.~
ganglia tgan 165.000. this does
not mean that immigration to the
United states “will be reduced one-
half. ‘or even reduced at all.
This striking statement. in,direct
variance with the popular concep-
Ethelbert Stewart.
2:30;; of Labor Statistics of the
Department of Labor. in the de-
partment's current Monthly Labor
Rev‘iefirél" Victory” For W
Much of the agitation f, passage
of the restrictive immigra on law
came from organized labor. which
workers should be protected; from
foreign competition for their job! in
the same way that manufacturers
are protected mlnfit foreign corn-
pctition for their customers. Like-
wise. the law’was Opposed by many
manufacturers because they wanted
a plentiful supply or labor to keep
down wages.
Mr. Stewart's analysis now shows
that the law may be s. hollow vic—
tory for labor so far as this aspect
is concerned.
The explanation lien in the fact
that there are great sections of the
world to which the law does not ap-
ply: that. although the admissible
quota. where.“ does apply, has been
cut in half. this reduction promises
to be made up by a greater influx
from sections where there are no
restrictions.
706.000 Come On 858.000 Quota.
As proof of this. Mr. Stewart
points out that although not more
than 358.000 immigrants .could be
admitted under quotas by the terms
of the old law. actually more than
706.000 immigrants were legally ad-
mitted last year. '
This number. Mr. Stewart further
says. was more than the intake of
immigrants in any year up ,to 1882
and has been exceeded in only 14
years of the nation‘s history. And to
this number there also wanadded
last year 172.000 aliens classified as
non-immigrants—that is. persons
admitted with the expectation that
they do not come into the country
permanently. ‘ _
“In other words," Mr. Stewart
adds. "45 per cent. more aliens were
admitted outside; the quota than
were admitted under it."
More Than Bait Highest Total.
The fact that immigration restric-
tion. even'under the, present more
drastic la-w. may not.materiaily alter
the annual influx may be realized
by. comparing last year's number:
with that of the highest year's to-
tals. The greatest number ever ad-
mitted was in 1907, when 1.285.000.
aliens came to these shores. But
even this enormous ,number was
considerably less than twice as
many as came in last year. in spite‘
of the restrictions then in force.
Even this does not tell the whole
story. “The figures shown for last.
year relate to the aliens‘ legally ad-
mitted." Mr. Stewart says. “How
many get into the country unlawful-
ly no one knows. But it must be con-
ceded'that the number thus coming
in is a. serious menace along our
entire border. especially the Mexl<
can border."
360,000'A year W.
By some authorities the extentpf'
this illegal entry has been estimated
as high as 100 a day. Considering
the great extent of the American
border. both by land and sea. it
will be realized that this figure
could be reached virtually without
being noticed. But it would result
in an influx of more than 350.000
in a year. or enough to bring the
total influx. legal and'illegal. close
to the highest figure made in the
days when practically no restric-
tions at all were imposed.
Congress'realized,‘ in passing the
present quota law. that the new re-
strictions would intensify efforts at
illegal entry and provided for the
establishment or a new Government
force. tozbe known as the border
patrol. to tight this menace. How
effective the patrol will be remains
to be seen. however.
New World Sends 884,000.
An explanation of the source of
the influx beyond the quota. of last
year is given in a. table listing the
"non-quota" countries. These in-
clude practically em country or
the New World. and this distinction
is carried over in the new immigra-
tion law. _
This table shows that more than
200.000 alien‘s came into the'Unit—
ed States last year from Canada. and
Mexico. some 17,000 from the West
Indies and nearly 10,000 from South
biggerica. The total was some 884.-
Although Mr. Stewart does not
develop in detail his assertion that
the new quota law may not reduce
immigration 'at all. he evidently
believes that natural law will be
stronger than man-made lotisiatidn.
and that limiting the influx from
Europe will only set up a. greater.
demand, for labor from Ne’w.World_
nations. ‘ ‘
