Friend of the Inmates. The true* sentiment of Superinten dent A. M. Scarborough toward the prisoners at the state penitentiary is embraced in the following card, a copy of which is handed to each new incoming prisoner: "My Friend: For a little while you and I are cuuipcllod to live tc gether, and in a way, to be ill each other's company. You came without an invitation from me. Probably you had no intention that we should meet in this way. During your stay your treatment will largely depend on your behavior. Probably you have made a mistake, perhaps done wrong. I have done both, most all have. Let's us both, the little "While we are "to gether, try and do as we would be done by. Should we both do this, I am sure we can part with respect for each other. My earnest wish is that I may be a better man for having known you and that you may be none the worse from having known me. "A. M. Scarborough, Superintendent." * The card is handed by the captain of the guard in the absence of the superintendent, but at any rate the eifort is made to prove to the. convict that he has a friend and will be be friended so long as ho will permit the State of South Carolina to be his friend.

In spite of all tho ef forts for peace, in spite of the prayers of the Christian people throughout the world, the only thing preventing war is poverty." In a series of graphic sketches, Mr. As we 1 1 set forth conditions impelling immigration to America. France, ho declares, is ho busy rebuilding her de vastated regions that she presents no immigration problems to the United States. Tho French people are not increasing rapidly. Their army is serving loyally fojr two cents a day, said Mr. Aswell, adding that not Since the days of Napoleon have any people been so loyal as thoy are today to Poincare. They are determined to make the German pay. Furthermore, Mr. Aswell found no immigration pfoblem in Belgium, Holland or Switzerland. In Germany there ia great unrest and bitterness, with outcries everywhere of the umis treated by France." Germany's chief trouble, however lies in the debase ment of her currency, said the speak er. There is a similar situation in Austria, in ltussia and in Checo-Slo vakia in lesser degree. The Premier of Hungry frankly said to the American delegation: You will get only our worthless refugees in America, not our good citizens." "It is cloar," said Mr. Aswell, "that Austria and Poland, along with Checo Slovakia and other European coun tries, are making a deliberate policy to send us their refuse population/ It is estimated that 800,000 come in annually." At Cherbourg Mr. Aswell saw 1,100 brought in in one day, all to be kopt there for a period of thirty days, to be deloused and made ready for Ellis Island. In Poland the delegation esti mated that one milion at least are headed our way. Crawda u? criminals are being sent over. Kven today 17 per cent of our insane asylums are for eigners. "It is time for us to stop making our country an asylum for the physi cally and mentally defective," declared the Congressman. "The time ha? come when we must stop letting our country bo made a dumping ground for the worthless of Europe, alieiirt in spirit and in lan guage, with no hope of becoming citl . We can no more make Ameri r. out of these millions than you can make a race horse out of n pug m The present immigration law ex pires next June. Mr. A swell urges that a new law be passed, providing that only a fixed number of immi grants be admitted, on the basis of 18D0,. thus largely shutting out south eastern Europeans and increasing those from northwestern Kurope. Mr. AswelJ advocates further that the immigrants he examined by American officers in their own countries ami not at Kllis Island, and that this examina tion shall include physical, sanitary and family conditions. Furthermore all immigrants before leaving hone* should be made to agree to 'stay away from American slums, socking instead the places where they are needed. No unskilled labor should be allowed in cities where there is already a super abundance. All should be required to learn and. speak the English language and attend the public schools. As a final provision, Mr. A swell would have all immigrants register, just w? register to vote, Said Mr. Aswell in conclusion: "An aliens should do something in return for the blessings of our country, and what other has such boundless op ,v . portunities? European economic con ditions are tragic; ours good; their currency in worthless, ours normal; their people east 'down, ours stand erect, happy and at peace; their fu ture is dark; ours most promising. Viewing this contrast, how can any American fail to be grateful for such a country and such a people? L am proud each day that 1 am an Ameri can and have a chance to serve my country and honor her (lag. Long live her purpose to remain American for Americans; t ?> uplift and bless the world." in a brief address to the student body at the chapel exercises Tuesday morning, Mr, Aswi-ll, blending mopt happily stories of his own with sane advice, captured his audience, as was shown by repeated encores. Accom panying Mr, Aswell to Winthrop was Congressman Hulwinkle from tl)e Gaston (North Carolina) district.
