"THE ECHO." HOUSE TAKES ACTION ON IMMIGRATION BILL ( Amendment Rejected That .Would Hm Opened Doort of Uni ted State* to Political a Refugee*. Vi Anvil 03 \ffor fA it a^uitigtva^ ? jecting an amendment seeking to i open the doors of the United States to foreign political refugees, Hhe house today passed -the immigration < restriction bill substantially in the ' same form it went through last ses sion Only "fo* be given a packet veto* ' The bill now goes to the senate : where Republican leaders said today it would be passed without delay. ) The me&wure is designed to be.op- < erative .over a period of 14 months and wouldi limit the entry of aliens bo 3 -per cent of the number of na tionals of any country in the United , States at the time of the 1910 aen- , 90$? ; Three:ame&dments siightiy modi fying it^ provi?TiD?ns wereadoptod by the hou&, although it was said to night that They might be stricken out by the senate. One would permit ad mission in'excess oj the limit of all aliens clearly-proving they had been subjected to religious persecution in their native land and were seeking refuge her solely to ayoid such hard ships. 4 , The second would adjnit of Amer ican citizens under 18 years of age, independent1 of the percentage of [imitation and the third would give preference to families and relatives i>f American citizen and former ser vice men honorably discharged from the army or navy, regardless >f whether they had been naturali sed in determining the question of admissibility under the restricted total. The principal fight was over an imefldment offered by Representa tive Sabath, Illinois, ranking Demo crat on the immigration committee, to open the gates to political refu gees. This was lost after a long de >ate which was closed by Represen tative Mondell, Republican leader, who said that under it even the fo? ner German emjeror could come lere. ' This question was bitterly discuss ed by Representatives Cockran, Dem >crat, New Yoric^ insisting that the lormer emperor woufd be met by trong hands ready to throW'him in prison. Mr. Cockran declared that he one time emperor was actually a refugee from the United States. Mr. Mondell was vigorous in de touncing the plan to open the gates or political refugees. "Under the mendment offered" he said, "not >nly could William, the damned, ome here but Charles, late epper- i r of Austria, and all the kings and trinces who have been spurned and c pewed out by the people of Europe T ould come. Not only that, but r very Russian opposed to the regime t f Lenin and Trotzky would gain ad lission to our shores. They, Lenin * nd Trotzky, and all the foul hordes r hat have followed them, could come ? a, and we could not close the doors E gainst them, even though they t jbto " Tk?vf r rhat this amendment would do. Of t ourse we all care for America first >ut the only way we can prove it is t lot by yorda.but by votes." v < e Immediately after the house had I vted^the amendment down, Mr. Sa- * nth presented another designed to ? sake lawful the entry of Donald J. * )'Oallaghan lord mayor of Corji and ? >ermit hhn to remain as a political i efugee.

Though associa- h ted in such enterprise with Senator t: Watson, of Georgia and Reed of Mis souri, the South Carolina senator * feels satisfied. ? He gives four reasons why he op- a poses ratification and why the treaty jd should not have been ratified. The a four are, in his words: h "We should not cast reflection on p the United States: (2) We owe Co- tl lombia no"hing: (3) If we do owe e Colombia something, it was not such a an enormous sum as $25,000,000; j (4) In ratifying the treaty, we planted seed of international dis- h content and infinite trouble." h Clothes Satish Copyright Haiti Rchaffner & I In seeking all-wool fabrics; thorough and longer wear, you uill find thai our Clothing Department u fhenoSENB ll Mercanti 'LANE RESCUES CHICAGO PEOPLE Srolcer With Wife and Another Cou ple Live on Fith for Fortnight Miami, Fla., April 23.?<-Webb Jay, Jhicago broker and sportsman, and arty of four were brought back from Jun Cay off the Bahama islands, ?here they had been stranded for 13 lay3 living principally on fish.
