SECRETARY WILSON1 IN
REPORT FOR THE YEAR
FAVORS LABOR UNIONS
(By Associated Press)
Washington, Deo. ll—-There can
be no permanent industrial peace that
Is not based on industrial justice,
Secretary Wilson declared today in
the annual report of the U. S. depart-
ment of labor.
Just as the peace of nations is pro-
moted by frank and friendly inter-
course he said, so may the peace of
industry be maintained by the same
methods. But this intercourse cannot
come about unless there is first recog-
nized the right of col ective bargain-
ing. The public interest demands that
it Tie universally recognized, for the
primary interest of the public is in
peace.
Calling attention to present
prominence of labor organizations of
a revolutionary or lawless typo the
secretary dec ared that the responsi-
bility for them must fall upon the em-
ployer who opposes the organization
of lawful trade unions. More and
more do industrial disputes menace
| the public as well as employer and
enip oye, the secretary said, adding
that tho right to strike should be a
mea,ns of defense and not a weapon
of offense.
The right of any man to ceaso work-
ing and the right of any person to re-
fuse to operate his plant at any time
ue desires to do so does not mean
that because these rights oiist it is
necessary to exercise tTiern, he said
guarded.
Reviewing the activities of the Var-
ious bureaus t}C the department, the
report saiii 254,2711 aiiens came to
American shores during the iisca,
year ending June 30, and that 245,§4?
of them were admitted and 8,628 ex-
cluded. The number admitted the
year before wes 211,S61S. Aliens de-
parting during the last flLcal year
aumbered 216,231 as against 193,283
the year beiore. Buring the last sev-
en years the Bureau of Immigration
estimated that 36 aliens left the coun-
try for every 100 admited.
Aliens' Admitted during the past
year were in possession of sums of
money aggregating $15,831,247, an av-
erage of $112 per person.
Aliens expelled under departmental
process during the year numbered
3.0G8 compared with 1,569 in 1918.
The total number of aliens deported,
including those refused admission and
34 Chinese deported under the exc u-
sion laws, was 11,728 as against 8,-
916 in 1918.
The number of admissions to citi-
zenship during the past; year was
! irgcr than any proceeding year,
amounting to 217,358, the report said.

Washington, Dec. 11.—Declaring
that for lack of intelligent govern-
ment assistance the truly great re-
sources of Alaska must perforce lie
in idleness, Governor Thomas Riggs,
Jr., in his annual report today, voiced
a plea for the adoption by the gov-
ernment .of a more liberal Alaska
policy. The report said lawlessness,
particularly that fomented by pro-
Germans, I, W. W-, and Bolshevik
elements was becoming a menace.
Appropriations are placed at such
a low figure as to preclude efective-
ness; rich mining regions aro made
unavailable for lack of transportation
facilities; fisheries are threatened
with exhaustion for lack of protec-
tion and natives in time of epidemics
are a lowed to die of disease and star-
vation.
The people of Alaska, ho added,
hold out their hands to Washington,
not as supplicants for bounty, but in
petition to be allowed to develop.
Referring to the menace of increas-
ing raedicalism in Alaska the report
said the I. W. W„ alien enemy and
Bolshevik, knowing the unprotected
condition of the territory, are arriv-
ing in force and making their pres-
ence known.
