Cary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel corpora tion, that the .restrictive immigra tion law* had made imminent a serious labor shortage, served today to draw the attention of government officials to the immigration question and the labor situation. Both immigration and labor condi tions were touched upon by the cab inet at its meeting, and secretary Davis presenting a report which it was said later at the White House convinced President Harding that Judge Gary was quite correct In his statement that a labor shortage.was threatened. The portion of Judge Gary's si De ment, as made at the annual meet ing yesterday in Hoboken, N. J.. of the United States Steel Corporation's stockholders, enticing the restrictive immigration law and blaming it for the threatened labor scarcity, how ever. brought replies from several quarters. Replies to Gary. Chairman Johnson of the house im- i migration committee in a formal statement declared there should be no relaxation In the restriction of the act and ascribed criticism of the statute by large corporations to a de sire for cheaper labor. Senator Hef lin. democrat, Alabama, also issued a statement io reply to Mr. Gary, de claring that congress, instead of lib eralizing the present immigration laws, should at its next session i strengthen them. Secretary Davis report was written prior to Jqdg« Gary's address, but dec-lured "throwing open the gates at j a time of prosperity in order to flood the country with workers anti non workers would serve to bring prosper ity to an end.” Mr. ^lavis added that unemployment now had been reduced ; to a minimum and that wages were rising, supplementing his report with a verbal statement to tho president that a shortage of workers already existed in somei of the skilled trades. 1 particularly Ihe puddlers in the steel mills. "Under these conditions, with labor everywhere in demand.” the labor secretary's report ••aid, it is inevita ble that there should h<\ agitation among some for the lifting of immi gration restriction*." Two Features Urged The report presented two features of legislation wh!elt Mr. Davis hopes to have enacted bv the next congress to supplement the present law fixing immigration quotas for the various countries. "I propose that we establish strict but just testa of physical and mental health and that we make those tests under the numerical restriction now placed on immigration," said Mr. Da vis. "I would have those tests made abroad, in order that the applicant for admission may not lie led to spend the savings of a lifetime on a long sea voyage to find out w hether he can enter the United States. J feel that : nothing would styngthen our whole' immigration policy so much as this j move, and one result would be to end , the heart rending seen** which every | day cot.front our agents at Hilts Island and other ports of entry." Tn furtherance of this proposal for selective immigration. Mr l>avis in formed the president that inquiry was now being made by bis department in the possibility of moving the whole examining machinery of the immi gration bureau to foreign countries under present laws. The other proposal outlined in th® teport concerned enrollment of th® admitted aliens which Mr. Davis has previously advocated as a means of helping the immigrant to Require the qualiih-ationa to be an American.

This line approached the Brush rapidly until it was seen that it was a wall of water fully 70 feet in height.

Captain Mitchell has sent the facts to the government officials for an explanation of the phenomenon and to discover if an earthquake, might have been responsible.
