A committee of immigrant citizens representing a group of foreign lan? guage newspapers wroto lo Senator ' Pomerene, explaining that they rep- ; resented half the population of the metropolis of the stute, and asking him to use his influence against the propoeed restriction of immigration. Tho senator's reply is worth quoting, si an answer to all such appeals. He said: "in your city, as well us in every industrial center in the state, and in Uli country, thousands and thousaefls of men and women, native, naturaliz ;d and alien sojourners here, are out .>f employment, for how long a time no one can tell. "I regret condition in the old world ar.d sympathize with people In I'.stress everywhere; but as a senator of the I'nited States my conception >f duty requires rn? to iook after the inemployed here rather than to add -O their number by leaving the gat-s it the ports of entry open, and as /our association represents one-half >f tho people of a great city it must nclude a very large part of the un smployed. "Certainly under these circum? stances, if it is your desire to aid ?hem. and I know it must be, your ?lews on the subject oi further re rtrlction of Immigration cannot in 1 ac differ radically fron', my own. ' That sound policy from the stand" >olnt of America requires further Imitation than at present I have no loubt." That seems to leave little to be said. It is natural for foreign-born to.-1 lents to want to bring their relativ s O this gauntry, nod somp concessions nust doubtless be made to that desire. *ut Ilmita must be drawn, and the ?olume of immigration mull be kept lown. foe the welfare of these for lgr.-botn people themselves as much is that of native eltlaOllS. Their own eeling shout the matter cannot he uliy trusted, and their miatgken MPataets will have la hi disregarded. f America is to be kept a land of op- ' ass tnnit v.
