IMMIGRATION
The Daily Kununai wants to picture the underdogs in the business world for a much more farther and more print-friendly the eye by standing for the ideas that are on display, to be clear; to be cheerful; to be to die; to be cheerful; to be clear; to be cheerful; to be clear; to be cheerful; to be clear; to be cheerful
The immigration problem is still vital one and one that will soon need to be settled in the United States.
Under the present law, which was passed by Congress in 1921, the number of immigrants coming to the United States from any foreign country for one year was limited to 3 percent of the number of residents of that race or nationality already here. At the close of the first year the law was extended for two years to June 30, 1924.
Under this provision 522.919 foreigners were admitted to the United States in the year ending June, 1923.
At the present time compared with
the 24,556,729 native-born whites of
native parents in our cities, there are
26,063,355 of foreign birth or foreign
stock, including 10,356,836 born
abroad. Of our 14,000,000 foreign born
whites, not half have become
naturalized citizens.
Labor organizations, statesmen,
and sociologists realize the need of restriction of immigration, and it is urged by some that the number of immigrants received be made even smaller.
MIXING FIRE-ARMS AND FIRE-WATER
The restriction of immigration will be removed in June of this year, and if the United States wishes to continue restriction, it will be necessary for Congress to make a new law during this session.
Many recent crimes have been committed because persons under the influence of liquor have had in their possession dangerous weapons that should not be allowed irresponsible individuals.
As a rule a drunk man is not vicious, but possessed with the necessary tools, he becomes a demon unaware of the misdeeds he is committing. When a person may go into any pawn shop and by paying the price of a revolver secure it without being questioned, our public safety is threatened.
Even if everyone were required to get a permit in order to obtain guns and revolvers there would be far too many "regrettable" deaths; but at least some thought would be necessary, thereby preventing a few of the more thoughtless.
BOOTLEG LIQUOP
Coast guards report that in the holiday booze rush, the biggest landing of boose ever made in New York took place.
During the last six months, the toll of deaths caused by booing liquor in the United States has seen more than eight hundred.
In a hospital in Emporia lies a young man, another victim of the illicit traffic. When he recovers from his attempted suicide, he will find himself in the bands of the law on a charge of first degree murder, because, while intoxicated, he shot and killed a policeman who attempted to arrest him at a dance.
FOREIGN COMMENT
WILSON VS. REEP
Idealism is a good thing; so is her materialism; but best results are only obtained when one works in co-operation with the other. Idealism, no matter how noble and beautiful, can achieve little unless it also takes as
tual realities of life into account. In the same way, materialism could do little or no good to the world unless aided by imagination and nobility of thought. To become addicted to one is just as bad as to be a slave of the other.
Examples of Woodrow Wilson and Senator Reed will serve to illustrate the point. Mr. Wilson, a visionary, failed in his attempt to make the world safe for democracy because he overlooked certain fundamental realities of the situation. In spite of his sincerity of purpose and strength of character he was a total failure. He wrecked his political career and his health in pursuit of his object without achieving it.
Senator Reed of Missouri is a cold materialist and glories in saying so. In spite of all that, could be said in his favor the fact remains that his narrowness of vision prevents him from doing good to the world at large. Except for the wrecking of Wilson's program, he has contributed hardly anything towards the welfare of the human race. Even that was a destructive contribution. He wants to serve America but he fails to realize that he can serve America best by serving humanity first.
