WHAT SHALL BE DONE WITH THE IMMIGRANT HE IS EASILY ASSIMILATED AND SHOULD BE STILL ALLOWED TO ENTER THIS COUNTRY. STUDENTS OF HIGH SCHOOL GIVE CONVINCING ARGUMENTS FOR THEIR POSITION Following is the speech of Earl Spencer, which together with that of Howard Krause, won the debate for Aanheim high school Friday night, when Whittier high school was defeated by 18-1-3 points: For the last 200 years one of the most important questions before America has been, What shall we do with the immigrant? Shall we put a stop to his coming and thereby a stop to our national development? Or shall we admit and welcome him and continue to advance and maintain our position as the greatest nation of the world. The United States of America today is a country that has been popped and developed by immigrants. Away back in the winter of the year 1620 a band of immigrants known as the Pilgrims, landed on our bleak New England shore and settled there. More immigrants came and these settlements grew. Still more immigrants muneration. Thus you see there is a demand for unskilled foreign labor which cannot be denied. We challenge our opponents to show any possible injury that could come to this country from the advent of men who seek no other end than a chance to work. Our opponents may say that the Italian who returns to his country takes a large sum of money with him. But every man that takes back a dollar to his native land must have created it by his own hand. Every man knows that every laborer who works for wages must himself produce and create every dollar that he is paid. And no laborer ever receives the full value of his product. That is, every laborer produces more than he consumes. The difference is his contribution to the wealth of the country. Even if the departing Italian took with him every dollar that he earned here, he must leave the profit made in employing him. We welcome this tide of immigration because we believe there is nothing that can enter our ports so valuable to us as a pair of human hands eager and anxious to engage in labor upon our soil to widen the field of production in which highly paid American laborers can find employment and to increase our wealth and prosperity. We need unskilled labor. There is a constant demand for unskilled labor with which to bring to completion the great industrial projects that we Americans have started. It is unskilled foreign labor that has made possible such enterprises as the Western and Union Pacific railroads, the Erie canal, the coal and iron mines and great highways of our country and the New York subway system. We are not alone in voicing these sentiments. We attainments along one policy of which the one policy the world-wide republican liberality and faction up to this date immigrants who going for admitting Most justly and ticular policy for principles. You need but that the nations sive were the most progressive out. The Athens of Greece became physical dwarf mingle with China which had it puzzles the prehend its begin stone around it means built a which has new down. Japan, these many ceilings known to the Commodore Pele has thrown open to become one of the world. Our an advantage first we recognize is a wise policy received, and is men and women German with the Englishman enterprise; they and valor; their alertness, and art and music, the making of to our national development? Or shall we admit and welcome him and continue to advance and maintain our position as the greatest nation of the world. The United States of America today is a country that has been popped and developed by immigrants. Away back in the winter of the year 1620 a band of immigrants known as the Pilgrims, landed on our bleak New England shore and settled there. More immigrants came and these settlements grew. Still more immigrants came and new settlements were made. Without immigration there would be no United States of America. Therefore, let us welcome the immigrants and continue to advance in the next 200 years even as we have in the past. The question for debate this evening as stated is, Resolved that foreign immigration should be further restricted by law. We, of the negative, do not stand for an open-door policy. We are aware of the fact that there are undesirable classes of immigrants which we do not want. But the present immigration laws now in force are, we hold, both adequate and properly enforced to keep out these undersirable classes of immigrants. The law as it now stands prohibits the landing of all paupers and of all persons likely to become a public charge, all idiots and insane persons, all persons suffering from a loathsome or dangerous contagious disease, any person convicted of a felony and misdemeanor, polygamists, and any person whose ticket or passage has been paid for with the money of another or who has been assisted by another to come unless it can be affirmatively and satisfactorily shown upon special demand that such person does not belong to one of the undesirable class, also all contract laborers. This is the law verbatim. Surely this law is adequate and sufficient to keep out the undesirable classes of immigration. Now the first reason why foreign immigration should not be further restricted by law is that immigration is a benefit economically and industrially. The immigrant, because of the fact that his labor is unskilled, will work at jobs and in places where the American laborer will not. Because of his labor being unskilled he gets lower wages than those the American skilled laborer demands and in this way American manufacturers are able to produce their goods as cheaply as foreign manufacturers. If we were not able to procure this cheap labor our home industries could not begin to compete with those of foreign nations. The point that wages are lowered by the foreigners' low standards of living is unsound in theory and unproved in employment and prosperity. We need unskilled labor. There is a constant demand for unskilled labor with which to bring to completion the great industrial projects that we Americans have started. It is unskilled foreign labor that has made possible such enterprises as the Western and Union Pacific railroads, the Erie canal, the coal and iron mines and great highways of our country and the New York subway system. We are not alone in voicing these sentiments. We are upheld by the opinions of Charles W. Eliot, Tom L. Johnson, Rev. Patrick J. Ryan, archbishop of Philadelphia. Our opponents may say that the labor market will become overstocked, but this argument is unsound because the relation between supply and demand is automatic. Aliens leave when the market is overstocked, returning when there is a demand for them. In the coal strike of 1902, three-fourths as many Slav miners returned to Europe as entered the United States, while in 1907, 77 per cent returned. Now a careful study of the census of 1910 develops the fact that over three-fourths of the foreign-born population of our country are located in 12 of the 50 states and territories of the United States. These 12 states are New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and our own California. These states contain just one-half of the total population of the United States, 78 per cent of the total foreign-born population and 81 per cent of what has been called the objectionable class, which comprises the Italians, Hungarians, Austrians, Bohemians and Poles. Are we willing to say that these states are lacking in patriotism, enterprise, and wealth? Quite the contrary. We find that the wealth created in these 12 states in 1900 was $6,832,000,000, and we also find that in the other group having the other half of the total population and 22 per cent of the foreign-born population, the wealth produced amounted to only $4,537,000,000. These figures seem to show conclusively that foreign immigration is an important factor in the development of our natural resources and that they are a wealth producing power of our country. We have as our authority for the above figures the Hon. O. P. Austin, chief of the bureau of statistics in the department of commerce and labor. Now, Honorable Judges, it is our opponents who advocate a change of policy and consequently the burden of proof lies with them. All that we ask is that the wise policy of our forefathers be continued. The immigration laws as they now stand are all that an advantage we first we recognize is a wise policeceived, and is a men and women German with himthe Englishman enterprise; thenand valor; thenalertness,andthenartandmusic,themakingofthecommonis lazy,thathestanding,hasnereis anundestprominentstudLandis,says:ney throughItaregoodfarmerdustrious.Thepowerfulintherevenin theirtagesaretasteiorsareattractutensilsareperformedforward.ontoWorld."ThismanwhohasstudyofItaliannifiant.AgainishimmigrantsLetmequoteForum,"JewisfromtheobjectagainstimmigriencreatescrimJewishquarterthoughmoreanyothertenrarlythesedisturbances.seenthere,andmandfortheirofpolicecountfromJewishmelyowingtowhiletheirloveforpreventfamilienessformsofcivilcourtss.

If we were not able to procure this cheap labor our home industries could not begin to compete with those of foreign nations. The point that wages are lowered by the foreigners' low standards of living is unsound in theory and unproved in practice. The immigrants' standard of living may be low when he comes over here but who can say what his future will be in this land of opportunities? We raise them to our level; we do not sink to theirs. An immigrant may start by selling rags in the New York slums and his son end up by selling bonds in Wall Street. Our opponent may say that the Italian laborer who returns to Italy with his money, made that money by displacing some American laborer. In some respects this is true. The immigrant does in some extent replace the American laborer, but how? Not by driving him from the field of honest toil as my opponents would have you believe, but by doing the menial tasks that Americans will not do. This leaves the Americans free to occupy the positions higher up. To illustrate: A bricklayer in the State of California gets $6 a day for eight hours' work. Now if he had to carry every brick to the top of the wall where it is laid in the mortar that he has to carry up also, do you think the empolyer could afford to pay him such wages? No. But by employing unskilled Italian labor for about $1.75 or $2 a day to mix the mortar and carry up the bricks, the American bricklayer can demand and get $6 for his skilled work. Our whole industrial system may be described as a vast multitude of unskilled laborers creating conditions under which highly trained artisans obtain employment that wins liberal re- WE ARE PROUD OF OUR IMMIGRATION POLICY It Is Broad, Unselfish and Has Done Much Toward Advancement of Country The following is the speech delivered by Howard Krause at the debate with Whittier, and which won for him first place among the four speakers: We, the people of the United States, are proud to think that no other nation in the whole world exceeds us in education, form of government, freedom in religion, prowess in war, scientific activities, and in our national policies. And most justly are we proud of our ANAHEIM GAZETTE attainments along these lines. And the one policy of which we are proudest—the one policy that has gained for us a world-wide reputation, is the policy of liberality and fair-mindedness we have up to this date pursued regarding the immigrants who come to our doors beging for admittance. Most justly are we proud of this particular policy for it is based on sound principles. You need but turn to history to find that the nations that were most exclusive were the nations that were either least progressive or eventually blotted out. The Athenians in the golden days of Greece became mental giants but physical dwarfs because they did not mingle with other races. Ancient China which has existed so long that it puzzles the historian to even comprehend its beginning, built a wall of stone around its borders and by that means built a barrier to its progress which has never been fully broken down. Japan, who has slumbered these many centuries, was almost unknown to the world until awakened by Commodore Perry. But now that she has thrown open her door she bids fair to become one of the leading nations of the world. Our nation has always had an advantage because from the very first we recognized that freedom to all is a wise policy. Our nation has received, and is still receiving, the best men and women of the world. The German with his economy and thrift; the Englishman with his commercial enterprise; the Irishman with his wit and valor; the Frenchman with his alertness, and the Italian with his art and music, all have contributed to the making of the American. The common belief that the Italian is lazy that he would lower our social attainments along these lines.

ORANGE COUNTY TAKES LEAD IN WALNUTS HOLDS PROUD POSITION AMONG 58 COUNTIES IN STATE IN ITS VARIED RESOURCES SECOND IN INCREASE OF FARM VALUES—FIFTH IN PRODUCTION OF PETROLEUM Orange county, generally recognized as an orange and lemon growing section, lead the 58 counties of California in the production of walnuts, came second in the percentage of increase of value in farm property in ten years, and by way of contrast to its agricultural and horticultural accomplishments, ranked fifth in the production of petroleum, according to figures for the year 1910 compiled by Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan for publication in the State Blue Book. To be exact, Secretary Jordan finds that the county’s walnut production for one year amounted to 7,478,955 pounds. Coming close on this was an orange product amounting to 1,247,905 boxes, which was exceeded only by three counties in the State. The farm property showed a value of $64,357,852, giving seventh rank, and this is an increase in ten years of $42,011,257, or 188 per cent. The petroleum product amounted to 5,044,001 barrels. Then comes the county ranking seventh among its six.

The German with his economy and thrift; the Englishman with his commercial enterprise; the Irishman with his wit and valor; the Frenchman with his alertness, and the Italian with his art and music, all have contributed to the making of the American. The common belief that the Italian is lazy, that he would lower our social standing, has made people believe that he is an undesirable. Listen to what a prominent student of Italian life, Mr. Landis, says: "The lesson of my journey through Italy is that the Italians are good farmers, steady, sober and industrious. The sense of art which is powerful in the Italian race, crops out even in their agriculture. Their cottages are tastily treated, their interiors are attractive, their agricultural utensils are primitive, but they move forward, on touching land in the New World." This statement comes from a man who has made a most careful study of Italian life and is highly signifiant. Again we hear that the Jewish immigrant is also an undesirable. Let me quote a paragraph from the Forum, "Jewish immigration is free from the objection so commonly urged against immigration in general that it increases crime and pauperism. The Jewish quarters in New York, although more densely populated than any other tenement-house district, is rarely the scene of serious brawls or disturbances. Policemen are rarely seen there, and these find but little demand for their services. The records of police courts are remarkably free from Jewish names. This is principally owing to their temperate habits, while their strong domestic virtues, their love for their wives and children, prevent family troubles, whose settlements form so large a part of the work of civil courts and police justices." Can we learn nothing from the Jew? Our divorce courts were never so much in demand as they are today. And who are using them? Not the Italian, not the Jew, not the Slav, not the immigrant in general, but the American, the idle rich and those who copy after them. Can it be said that policemen are rarely seen among the Germans, the English, the French? Can it be said that Anglo-Saxon names are remarkably free from police records? Again we hear that the problem of assimilating the foreigner is an excessively hard one. Now if this were true the effect would certainly be shown in the states where foreigners are in the majority. According to sta in the State Blue Book. To be exact, Secretary Jordan finds that the county's walnut production for one year amounted to 7,478,955 pounds. Coming close on this was an orange product amounting to 1,247,905 boxes, which was exceeded only by three counties in the State. The farm property showed a value of $64,357,852, giving seventh rank, and this is an increase in ten years of $42,011,257, or 188 per cent. The petroleum product amounted to 5,044,001 barrels. Then comes the county, ranking seventh among its sister counties in the value of all crops, this value being $6,176,337. Other figures compiled by Secretary Jordan are interesting. With an area of 508,200 acres, he finds that the county has 371,692 acres in farms. Domestic animals on farms are given a value of $2,453,878, and domestic animals not on farms, $296,681. The total number of horses, mules, hogs and sheep was 79,179. The receipts from the sale of animals for the year amounted to $266,105. Milk product amounted to 2,261,110 gallons; egg product to 1,198,-290 dozen; honey product to 325,656 pounds. The value of the poultry and egg product was $414,692. The butter product for the year ending September 10, 1911, was 158,851 pounds. With all crops valued at $6,176,337, Jordan also finds that the value of the hay and forage crops amounted to $976,896; the fruit and nut crop to $2,-497,734; the cereal crop to $562,563. There were 32,415 acres in cereals, and the product amounted to 808,381 bushels. The barley product amounted to 671,526 bushels. With 47,651 acres in hay and forage, the product amounted to 87,655 tons. The alfalfa product was 23,139 tons; the potato product 127,367 bushels, and the sugar beet product 133,612 bushels. The county had 160,667 bearing orchard fruit trees; 597,383 bearing tropical fruit trees, and 278,879 bearing nut trees. The total product of orchard fruits was 362,981 bushels; the apricot product 328,931 bushels; the grape product 2,648,855 pounds; the orange product 1,247,905 boxes; and the olive product 828,204 pounds. These figures are based on United States census reports for 1910, which are used throughout the Blue Book for comparative purposes, and in this connection it is interesting to note that the county statistics for the following year, 1911, show these increases: Orange product 4,500 carloads, valued at $2,550,000; 2,800,000 pounds of apricots; 12,000,000 pounds of walnuts; 10,000,000 barrels of crude oil; 2,500,-000 dozen eggs.

AUSTRALIA SEEKING OUR FRUIT That the individual states of Australiaarenot overlookingtheimportanceofthePanamaCanalis evidencedinthevisittothisstateofF.A.FrickrepresentingthelanddepartmentofthestategovernmentofVictoria,Au Again we hear that the problem of assimilating the foreigner is an excessively hard one. Now if this were true the effect would certainly be shown in the states where foreigners are in the majority. According to statistics a few years ago Massachusetts had 57 per cent foreign born or of foreign parentage, Maine 77 per cent, Maine is therefore a more representative American state than Massachusetts, but is there any distinction in the institutions or the legislatures of these respective states, that would show that the foreigner has not been successfully assimilated? In Minnesota there are to each 100 native inhabitants 239 of foreign birth or of foreign parentage, and in Wisconsin the proportion is 100 native to 264 foreign. Is there anything in the government of these states, or their general management indicating that the foreign element was seriously injuring the welfare of our country? Ex-Ambassador James Bryce says that the thing which most impresses the traveler in this country is the ability of the American to assimilate the incoming streams of humanity. As a matter of fact we have but a very few to assimilate in proportion to our population. According to the official report of the commissioner of immigration for the year 1911, the latest to be secured, less than 880,000 immigrants came to this country during that year, or about .9 of 1 per cent of the entire population of the United States. But our population did not gain even this minute number of immigrants for the 880,000 which came to this country, 295,666 or 34 per cent were sent back. Orange product 4,500 carloads, valued at $2,550,000; 2,800,000 pounds of apricots; 12,000,000 pounds of walnuts; 10,000,000 barrels of crude oil; 2,500,000 dozen eggs. In a descriptive way, Secretary Jordan relates that Orange county, lying between Los Angeles and San Diego counties, and containing 780 square miles, is a great fertile valley of alluvial soil, sloping gently to the southwest to the Pacific ocean from the foot hills and mountains bordering it on the north. It is termed a land of beautiful orange and lemon groves, of great shady orchards of walnut, and fruit trees, of vast fields of grain, beans, celery, sugar beets, berries and vegetables. In the mountains to the north are magnificent canyons, interspersed with groves of live oak and sycamore trees, sparkling streams and mineral springs, sweet-smelling plants and flowers—all of easy access. The sea shore of the county, which extends for 35 miles, is dotted with seaside resorts, where bathing, boating and fishing may be enjoyed to the utmost. Attention is called to the quaint old mission town of San Juan Capistrano, in the southern part of the county, with its well preserved historic mission; and the neighboring health and pleasure resort, San Juan Hot Springs, where are hot and cold mineral springs, fine camping places, and mountain scenery; El Toro, ten miles north of Capistrano, where are orchards and grain ranches; Trabuca, Santiago, Silverado, and Santa Ana canyons among the mountains to the eastward, with their fine mountain scenery, bee ranches, and stock ranges; El Modena, Villa Park, Olive and Yorba, foot hill villages surrounded by orange, lemon That the individual states of Australia are not overlooking the importance of the Panama Canal is evidenced in the visit to this state of F. A. Fricke representing the land department of the state government of Victoria, Australia. Fricke is in the United States in the interest of his government which has in view with the opening of the Panama Canal the establishment of fruit trading more extensively between the two countries. In the State of Victoria, Fricke delares, but little more than one-fourth of the land available for agriculture and fruit raising is improved because Australia thus far has been unable to export produce to American markets. The ultimate result of Fricke's visit America the Victorian State hope will be the establishment of Australia trading institutions in San Francisco New Orleans and on the Atlantic coast. Fricke is gathering information and data on the preparation of fruit, especially for market, and is spending great portion of his time in California because it is here the great horticultural crops are produced. The citrus fruit industry in Australia, he asserts, has not been developed to any great extent, but pear and apple raising is of great importance. Because of the climatic condition Fricke claims Australia can expect produce to America at a time when it is not available here. He declares markets have already been established in Europe, and if American business enterprises will enter into affiliation with Australia it will enable extended development agriculturally in Australia and be of benefit to both nations.
