pitifully scarce. N ‘
That something ia common
sense.
We have for many years inain-
tained hotels for immigrants walt-
ins to land in the United States.
They enter the immigration sta-
tions. and are taken care of by the
government until they are admit-
ted. In the meantime the ships
on which they come anil away free
of all expense and obligation.
The secretary proposes to eloee
these stations, If ha does, the
immigrants will stay on the ships
in which they come until their
turn comes for examination. The
examinatons will be held os
board their ships. The ships will
feed and lodge them uptil- they
vass the examinations. : -
Another bit of common senae
which seems involved in the
change is that of having the im-
migrants examined before they
start from their native lands. Why
let ‘them start if they are ineli-
gible?" _
