know what the official measurements

snow hadn’t been disturbed and
there was no drift the depth at noon
on the 24th was 11 inches. This
represents a fall more or less steady
since early Monday A. M.

over the white combers off Tyee. . .

MORE PROSPERITY
The doors of the New York Res
tuarant closed for an indefinite pe
riod the first part of the week. No
ore coffee-and, there for a while.
Reason: Plenty of business, but no
money. Lots of hungry people but
too many emaciated purses.
IMMIGRATION AND NATURALI
ZATION
The Washington Post, intaking up
the mater of immigration proposals
says: In general the changes in
the immigration laws which Secre
tary Davis proposes to recommend
to Congress will be heartily approv
ed by all who have given any atten
tion to the subject. Mr. Davis will
recommend that aliens who, once
havipg been deported, find their
way hack to our shores in violation
of the laws, should be subject to
penalties in addition to being de
ported.
He would hold ship masters res
ponsible for the entry of stow
aways unless it can be shown that
all due diligence on the part of
masters and crews had been ex
ercised and failed to discover the
presence of the undesirables. Will
also ask that the deportation laws
be codified and strengthened, with
the new classes of deportable aliens
to be created including peddlers of
jmi cuuub.
Present laws permit the alien
j wife of an American citizen to ent
|er the country to join her husband,
I without reference to quota of the
| country whence she comes. Secre
i tary Davis suggests that a like pri
vilege be extended to alien husbands
of American wives, and that all
alien children of American citizens
between the ages of 18 and 21 be
accorded the status of nonquota im
migrants. The limit is now 18
years.
The present laws deprive the
North American Indians who reside
in contiguous territory outside the
limits of the United States of the
right of immigration or naturaliza
tion. This has been the basis of
much controversy in dealing with
Canadian Indians especially, and
Secretary Davis suggests that, in
view of the failure of Congress to
fully understand the provisions of
the law of 1917 when the statute
was enacted, so far as it may relate
to the status of these people, the
act should be. amended accordingly .
He further asks Congress to con
sider “the necessity for special re
lief for the wives and minor children
of aliens married at the time of
entry, who entered the United States
lawfully, for permanent residence,
prior to July 1st, 1924.”
I In view of the fact that all the
recommendations of the Secretary
of Labor are based upon his experi
ence in the administration; of the
immigration laws duripg the last
six years or more, they shou) d re
ceive the careful consideration of
the committee on immigration and
of bothhouses of Congress.
George Ketetah died recently at
Kake. Mr. Ketetah was supposed
to be beyond 100 years of age. He
was a middle aged man when the
American troops assembled at Sit
ka at the time of the Russian trans
fer of the territory to the United
States. / /|
