Keep Out the Had Alien
“Why should not Congress pro-
vide for an ethnical survey of the
people of the United States.' \\ e
should have delinite and reliable
information concerning those for-|
eign elements which are benifical
to our people and those which are
harmful.”
Because the World War has
stemmed the tide of foreign immi-
gration, giving the United States;
an unprecedented opportunity to
formulate a fixed policy for. future
immigration control, this sugges-
tion by Dr. Alexander Graham Bel,
is timely, according to a bulletin
from the National Geographic So.
ciety.
Usually the problem of immigra-
tion has been considered only from j
its immediate economic aspect, but
according to Doctor Bell, one of
th eVorld’s foremost authorities on
eugenics, immigration has an im-
portant bearing on our entire so.
cial and racial fabric. In a com-
munication to the society he ex-
plains: '
“The problem of improving a
race of human beings is a most per
pelxing one to handle. The pro-
cess of improvement must be slow
where the forces concerned act
from within and are not amend-
able to control from without. Un-
der the best conditions it would
require several generations to pro.:
duce sensible results, but in the
United States we have, in the new
blood introduced from abroad, an
important means of improvement
that will act quickly and that is
eminently susceptible to control.
All the nations of the world have
been contributing elements to our
population; and we have now and
now only, the opportunity of study
ing the process of absorption) be-
fore it is complete.
“The grand spectacle is present-
ed to our eyes of a new people be-
ing gradually evalved in the Unit-
ed States by the mingling togeth-
er of the different races of the
world in varying proportions. It
is of the greatest consequence to
us that the finlal results should be
the evolution of a higher and nob.
ler type of man in America, and
not deterioration of the Nation.
“To this end the prccess of evo-
lution sftould be carefully studied,
and then controlled by suitable im-
migration laws tending to elimin.
ate undesirable ethnical elements
and to stimulate the admission of
elements assimulated readily by
our population, and that tend to
raise the standard of manhood
here.”

The Simple Rule of Finance
The mystery of Britian’s ini
pending -bankruptcy has been
solved. She has simply been
spending more than she has been
taking in. This explanation will
give great relief to many persons
who have been worried about
their own financial condition. They
couldn’t understand why ends
failed to meet, and have been lay
ing the blame on the war, on high
prices and anything else that was
handy.
With the announcement of this
new financial discovery all hearts
will be lightened. There is no-
thing really the matter with the*
finances of spend-thrifts. They
are merely spending more than
they are earning. Of course, they
arc going bankrupt just the same
but they will have great satisfac-
tion in knowing there is no mys-
tery about it. Some of us who
don’t want to go bankrupt, no
matter what the reason, may put
this discovery to better use. We
may pull up on our spending until
our income catches up.
It is fortunate that finance has
I generally been regarded as too
deep for ordinary understanding.
| Most of us take one hopeless look
Mat it and give it up. As a mat-
liter of fact it is rather simple. Mr.
Micawber who had ripe experieftce
land spoke with authority, put it
I all into a single rule which it
! would be difficult to improve upon.
“Income twenty shillings, expendi-
tures twenty shillings and six-
pence, balance misery; income
twenty shillings, expenditure nine-
|| teen shillings and six-pence, bal-
ance haptiness.”
We can pay high prices and
blame them for our ruin if we
want to. There may be comfort
| in that, but it doesn’t avert the
] ruin. We ran limit our wants to
I our ability to satisfy them and
! come out whole. Governments
and individuals alike have the
choice. But if they choose to go
bankrupt they won’t have and
luck explaining it wos owing to
the inoyeration of the ordinary
laws of finance. In every case
it will be owing to the operation
of those laws, which always come
out exactly the same way accord-
ing as we spend more or ess than
we have got.—Exchange. _
