IMMIGRATION: MENACE OR BLESSING?

for suspending, ' immigration laws to prevent

ar)y one thing; it is the Variety 'Vof( views its
members can entertain as to a particular ques
tfpn of public, policy or interest. The present
instance is in line with the senate's traditional
aspect. ' . ' ,' - " . ,
What is very certain is that a stream of mi
gration the greatest in- modern history has set
in from central Europe. The United States has
been and is receiving aliens at a rate beyond
any of its previous experience. Records show
that so far these have been largely of a desir
able type, coming from western Europe in Ithe
lhain,1' provided wjtht sufficient means to permit
their becoming' established here;' many of them
are skilled orkV,?? ' while' the unskilled are of
the more intelligenclasf.' ; ejynd this looms a
iiiuch darker clqud., Reports irom Riga bring
news of hundreds 6f thousands of peasants from
soviet territory, destitute arid forlorn, struggling
to reach a seaport from whence they may embark
to a land where the "brotherhood" of com
munism does not prevail. Tales are told of
entire "villages depopulated, only the aged and
infirm, those inca.pable ; of marching are left.
Roadsides are lined with bodies of the unfor
tunate whose strength has failed, and who have
died. Groups hide by day and travel by night,
to avoid the marauders who swarm and pillage
the pilgrims, without mth. It is a veritable
liegira, such a has not bejen. known for cen
turies. A statement, recently: published, says the
racial problems will be transferred from Europe
to America if the movement goes on.
" i; America can not look with indifference on
such a spectacle, nor contemplate unmoved the
predicament of the victiriTs of the social cataclysm
that has followed ,t"ie close of the great war.
' Neither is it to be expected'that ,we jeopardize
tne"entire future-;by -admitting:, fop,, the', present
and unassimilable mass of destitute and indi
gent from -Europe. No true American "wants to

Prohibition of immigration for' a year will
do little harm. We have been contributing to
the relief of the , starving in Europe for years,
and will continue to do so. Our hope in this
respect has been that thjey will give over their

. l' Another International Crisis Passes.
J It is not surprising to learn that especial care
is to be exercised in choosing American diplo
matic representatives, or that a number of able
and wealthy? citizens are bidding for appointment
s to these foreign posts. The necessity for prompt
decisions, bold action and, scrupulous regard foi
national honor is such that no one but a man
perfectly sure of himself could now afford to -j

One has only to read of the triumphant con
duct of Hugh C Wallace, American ambassadoi
to France, to realize what might happen if the
i wrong man had been chosen to this important
office. A French statesman had given an official
vJinner to which all the .diplomatic corps waf
invited, among the number both the American
and the German ambassadors." One of the host?
approached ' Mr. Wallace with the -Tiews , that
the German would tike tp nieet hiiru Relaxing
iqto the vernacular, Mr. Wajlace asked his hos'
to forget it,, and pointed put that although it
might be correct for a Frenchman or a Belgian
to say "how do'y6tt do" to a Germ.an, he could
not overlook the fact that the United States
had not ratified the covenant of the league of
nations .or signed the peace treaty, and that so
far as he was concerned he djdn't have to speak
to any German, .for the two countries were still
at war. "
. "Tell him that I refuse to meet him," said
Mr. Wallace,, ind-history does not record
whether the Berliner, who stood within earshot,

" . O vindication of the Law.
The execution of Cole and Grammer" term
inates one of the longest and in many .ways
most interesting fights for liberty ever conducted
under the courts of Nebraska. It can not be said,
in the light of this case, that the law relentlessly
pursues one who has infringed its provisions. On
the other hand, it has been proven that many safe
guards and protections are thrown around one
accused of a crime, and that the . law patiently
hears and tests all of his claims to immunity.
Public "patience sometimes is sorely tried by
the procedure, but humane considerations de
mand that no chance be denied the culprit whose
life has been decla'red forfeit. In no other way
can the law itself be satisfied, or the objections
of those opposed to capital punishment be met.
When a doubt is left as to the guilt of a culprit,
or it is possible that all his legal rights have
not been accorded him, then objection may
rightly lay agaiqst the execution of the sentence.
Therefore :it js incumbent always to patiently
abide the slow-moving process of the cou'ris, be
cause ;only thus do we in the right ..way sustain
Jibe dignity, and majesty of the law, on which
at last all our rights and liberties rest. ; , ,
While, in this case the-yattorney who repre
sented tfce accused displayed not only extensive
,knpwledge "of the intricacies of the law, and ap
plied that knowledge in a most persistent and
itjgenions way,' it is not alleged ' that he was
actuated by any mood of levity, or that he flip
pantly" or frivolously interposed from time to
tune -one after another of tKe points he raised.
He. was an attorney, an officer of the court; bat
tling for the rights of his client; not at any mo
ment undertaking to thwart justice or to impede
the lawy but always striving to vindicate that law.
Thatrhe exhausted every means in behalf, of the
men who sought him as a defender, is to his
credit; that the law finally exacted the penalty is
the state's justification. -
Food Versus Clothing. - . , :
' The warmer the clothing in winter, the less'
food is required, and if this scientific theory holds
true, it would be an. easy matter to pick out the
hearty eaters. Some there are, of course, who
can afford neither heavy clothing! nor plentiful
food, but for others light clothing'is a matter
of choice, aad expensive choice at that, for 'while
the cost of clothing for comfort is comparatively
small,' the amount spent for ornament, is com
paratively high, t
Clothing, we' are told, is. a net to catch air,
which is useful as a non-conductor of heat. It
is on this theory that the best mefhod of dress
is, said to consist of several layers of different
substances and loosely woven textures. It is as
if the body and its clothing were built as one of
those vacuum bottles that defy changes of tenv
perature. '
Loosely woven wool, consisting of 87 per cent
air and 13 per cent solid substance, is rightly con
sidered as ideal for winter wear. It is elastic
and soft, has little contact with the skin arid
thus creates a layer of air between the garment,
and he skin, . It has the further advantage of not
being wet by moisture, but allowing it to pass
through and evaporate. Cotton , and linen,
withstanding the ravages of laundering better
than wool, find the greatest argument for
their! use, in that quality. ' Fine linen is
dense; containing ctnly 42 per cent air and 58
per cent, solid' - matter, and when : starched
has rid -air' at "all in its -interstices. Having
close contact with th skin, it ' conducts heat
away and feels cooler, It is said that it takes
thirty times as long for a given quantity of air
to pass through linen as through wool tricotine,
hence a lack of circulation that impairs the util
ity of linen. Silk lies in a middle ground be
tween wo! and linen. Cotton stockings con
duct heat away a'third faster than those o! wool,
and shiny leather shoes more quickly than those
made of soft, loose leather.
But these assurances avail not when one bun
dles up too thoroughly for it is not so often the
insufficiently-clad person who catches cold as
the .too-abundantly clad. ' : Sensible protection
from cold by clothing enables more energy' to
be used for other purposes than keeping up
-the' bodily heat, together with lessening the
quantity of fpod required, which leads us back to
speculation as to the diet of some of our young
and charming friends. i. . '
Last Call for Fly Swatting."- . . 1
.What flies are left alive now are so fat and
lazy that it ' scarcely seems sportsmanlike ' to
htmt them down, and yet "a swat in time may
save ninety and nine next spring. These languid
surviyors that are floundering about the warm
kitchens and dining rooms should be killed at
once, as they have fattened for hibernation for
the winter months, in preparation for emerging
from winter quarters about Easter time and
raising their summer progeny.
A bulletin sent out by the Merchants' asso
ciation of New York urges the importance of
killing houseflies seen between Thanksgiving, and
Christmas. The fact that in many cfties; this
disease carrying insect has ,been : eo ' largely
eliminated does indeed make it advisable; not to
relent at this crucial moment. '. "

ASTHMA AND CONSUMPTION.
Most of us are of tho opinion that
asthmatics do not have consumption
and consumptives do not have asth
ma. ,The notion prevailed that there
was some sort of an antagonism be
tween the two conditions. Many an
asthmatic has consoled himself for
the inconvenience of his present ail
ment by thinking, "Well, bad as it
is it protects me from consumption,
which is worse."
Somo authorities of the olden time
admitted that asthmatics contracted
consumption sometimes, but claimed
that when consumption developed
the asthma got well. In recent years
Investigators have found that a lot
of old asthmatics are really old con
sumptives, j
Soca found that of 700 asthmatics
carefully examined BOO had con
sumption. Pottenger found that
seven out of 75 consumptives in his
sanitarium had asthma also. Dr. E.
B. French found that in 49 cases of
open ;', consumption living in their
homes in one district in Chicago, six
were afflicted with asthma also.
In ordinary bronchial asthma
there is a more or less chronic, per
sisting bronchitis as a basic work.
The bronchitis subject becomes eas
ily susceptibia to the chemical se
creted by the bacteria in his bron
chial tubes, Just as other men be
come susceptible to eggs, and still
others to salmon. When this sus
ceptibility is developed the man gets
a condition of his bronchial tubes
somewhat akin to that of the skin in
hives. He yearns for air Just as the
hives man yearns, for the privilege
of scratching. . ,; V
The asthrna part of the picture Is
the difficult breathing.
In most cases of cansumptlon
there is considerable bronchitis. That
is where most of the sputum comes
from. If over-susceptibility to the
secretions of the bacilli of bronchitis
Is developed asthma Is the result.
On the other hand, what is to pre
vent tubercular infection of a' lung
where1 there Is chromic bronchitis?
As Dr. French says, the practical
angle to this matter is that a lot of
Old asthmatics are careless spitters
because they think their spitting
does no harm, whereas they are con
sumptives and are doins much harm
by promiscuous spitting.
Again, many people assume that
because they are asthmatics they
cannot contract consumption and
they expose themselves unnecessar
ily. Finally, when doctors and nurses
are told a person has asthma they
are apt to pass the case over lightly,
thinking consumption out of tlie
question. Dr. Freilich thinks every
asthmatic should have several ex
aminations once a year at least in
order to rule out consumption.
Asthmatics who hav.e fever, lose
weight, have night sweats, a rapid
pulse, or who spit blood should have
a careful chest .examination for con
sumption. An asthmatic should be
careful about his sputum, seeing that
it is properly collected and destroyed.

Omaha, Pec 17. To the Editor of
The Bee: "Jours of yesterday con
cerning the state keeping our re
maining school lands as an heritage
to our children and to those chil
dren yet nnhorn was an editorial of
sound common sense.
On two legiHlatrve occasions I have
had an' humble part in killing bills
proposing the sale of our remaining
school lands to individuals We have
killed them with thta problem in
the State's- financing, namely: The
two sections, 16 and 36, are school
sections, 1,230 acres in each town
ship, torevcr Bet apart for school
maintenance if our legislative hands
could have been kept off them.
In eastern Nebraska most these
lands were biireainod awav to
'"friends" at $7 per acre. In later
years the price per acre was some
more, but most the good school
lands in eastern Nebraska went for
such ridiculous prices of sale to
"friends." Had" thes lands been
held in trust to the chldren and no
return received on them up to now,
the so-called permanent school funds
of the statewould be a fabulous
sum in lands. Had they been leased
to poor home.-wisb.lng farmers at
one-third reni.al of crops, raised, this
rent annually would be more to the
school funds every year than the J
per acre price the Btate received on
good lands, and if 1,280 acres of
land in a township at one-thitd
lease of crop would on the good
lands produce $7 per acre, a sum
of $8,960 per annum, would today
pay all the school teachers' salaries
in the rural townships of eastern
Nebraska where these lands are lo
cated, leaving only the school house,
books and fuel to be provided for by
a small taxation on each district.
Were these school sections al
lowed to be leased only at a one
third rental annually, why,' Mr. Edi
tor, our se-called permanent school
funds w6uld be fabulous, as I said,
and two sections in every township,
with a fixed rental value of one
third the crop would be an ever
ready barrier to excessive leases
made for private lands.
A wise man should profit hy the
mistakes Of the past. So should we.
What our legislators should do
is to provide for the leasing of the
remnant of this princely inheritance
to our school children rather than
the giving of it away, i

There are several causes of heart
murmur as well as several condi
tions of which this is a sign. An
answer true of one would be untrue
as to another. Have your physician
tell you whether the murmur is con
genital, whether it- is bacterial,
whether it is due to anemia, whether
it is caused by a crippled heart
