PrIcea IMMIGRATION BILL DiAWS SHARP FIldH House Metbers From New oYrk Hot. ly Attack Proposed Restriction. Washington, April 2.-The immi gration restriction bill drew shar) fire today in the House, especially front members from New York state, and was as .vigorously urged by Chairman Johnson of the imningration committee, and other represen'tAtives who declared legislation to keep out uidesirable imm igra tits neccessary at this time. Debate on the measure continued thioughout today and will be re simed tomorrow with a vote expected -before adjournment on Friday. While confident of its passage by a, large . majority, leaders conceded it woulld not receive the ovenwhelming vote a similar bill did at the last ses sion. Leading the fight on the -measure were lpleresentative Cockrain, Demo crat, Siegel, Republican, Chandler, Republican and London, Socialist, all of New York; Sabbath, I)cmocrat, Il linois; Stevenson, Democrat, South Carolia, and Iiluddleston, Democrat, Alanama. Iepresentative Cockran declared the bill marlked the renun elation and abandonment of the poli cy which had fixed the position of the t:nited States in the civilized world. "This bill, If passed," Alr. Cockran iai(l, "Will extinguish the light of hope and prog ress throughout the world. You have here today plenty of spealers and rulers, but what you want is the decent immuigrant to cul tivate the earth. Under your restrict ed 1plan no one may comie hereafter, unless lie Is a sailor, a soldier, and a -potential statesman or a scholar and a gentleman." Representative Siegel charged that. propagandists and skillful agitators had done mulch to bring about the bill. lie denounced the provision in the bill- basing the 3 per cent admission on the 1910 census rather than that of 1920. The House was told by liepresentta tive Salbath that persons fleeing from lolitie.' i and relig ious oppressiona could not be admitted to the 'nited ;t :~tt.; UInrher the bl aI presented. Such persons, hto inii'sted, shoihI be )ermitted to s:eek rcfuge here. M:. London saI tt(e cmeasure would .mrike at the very people we went to war to elipltl !ate.'" and charged that thv bili was an expression of preju -Itepre.entative Chandler declared prcsent haws w *eie adeiuate to k eep oit undesir-able aliens.
