WHITE ESKIMO
IS 'THROWBACK'
Is Offspring of Early Explorer
in the Arctics, It Is
Believed
Seattle, Wash., Dee. 16. —Atavism j
explains the discovery of "blonde!
Kskimos" In Victoria laud, in the ]
Arctic, reported by Viljhulmar Stef- j
ansson. In the opinion of James H. I
Crawford, a member of the second j
Stefansson expedition, who has come j
out of the north for the lin't time
in fifteen years.
_. The blonde natives are "throw- [
.hacks" of early " hite explorers, j
Crawford believes. lie expressed
surprise that the existence of an en- !
tire tribe of blondes was generally
believed. lie was with Stefansson j
when the blondes were discovered, [
"In Victoria La nd," Crawford
said, "there are probably three tribes
or villages, comprising several hun
dred natives, in which these light
Kskimos are found. But there are j
fewer than a dozen of the blondes.

Doctors had given me their best tonics j

friends to use Vinol when they need ;
strength."—Mrs. MARTHA SICKI.ES. 1
Women who are run-down, nervous,
lack energy and working strength
should take Vinol as it contains Beef
and Cod Liver Peptones. Iron and
Hypophosphites, the very elements
needed to restore a lost appetite, en
rich the blood and create strength.

i announced that he would apply prob-
I ably to-day for a writ or' habeas

I Mrs. Edith Jones, housekeeper for

1 —;
i "Would Have Naturalization 1
Courts iu Large Cities to
Handle Cases
, New ork. Dec. 16.—Some of the |
defects of Ellis Island and seven rec
ommendations which the Congees- j
sional committee will make to the
House for a "tightening up" of immi
gration regulations throughout the '
I'nited States, particularly as ihey
apply to anarchists. Bolshevists the
I other, ultra radicals were indicated
■ here to-day by officials of the United.
States Immigiation Station and By j.
[Representative Isaac Siegel, a mem-,
ber of the committee which has been .
investigating this port of entry.
These recommendations, according (
to Mr. Siegel. will include:
Naturalization Courts in large I
cities.
A method of requiring all young |
Americans to take the oath of al
legi tnee upon reaching 21 years.
Abolition of the office of Commis- j
sioncr General of Immigration;
\ Appointment of an Assistant Sec-i
retary of the Department of Labor,
to supervise all immigration affairs: !
Mandatory legislation providing
for more rigiti inspection at Ellis Is- '
land where 80 per cent of incoming |
aliens arrive;
A military immigration patrol on j
the Canadian and Mexican borders: j
More drastic penalty for ship own- j
ers who permit alien members of]
j crews to desert.
Hob Arc Shrewd.
"You can't tell a Red by looking at j
j him," declared one of the Ellis Is- •
| land officials. "You can't catch a
Red by cross-examining him. dioy j
are far too wily and shrewd. It is j
| only after they have been in this .
country for a sufficient length of'
time that you discover their perni-1
! eious beliefs and when you do no j
Itiine should be lost in deporting
them.' No examination, prior to en
j try. can give the protection intend
'ed by the law. It is necessarily per
-1 functor) and ineligible aliens are
i bound to slip through because of our
j wrong methods."
New York has the biggest immi
| gration station In the country, he
I said, the others being at Roston.
' Baltimore, Philadelphia. New Or-
J leans. San Francisco and Seattle.
! Washington: Norfolk. Va.. and Gal
j veston. Tex., are ports of entry with
j inspection officers but are not
I classed as "stations" like Is
j land and the rest. It is compara
i tively easy to shut out the ment
ally and physically defective when
they come in at these big ports,
said Congressman Siegel, but tlie
big problem is to prevent the en
trance of undesirable aliens over our
[ Northern and Southern borders,
t "Inadequate as our immigration
I machinery may be in New York
J and other large ports," said the
[ Congressman, "it is much more ef
| fective than the machinery we have
(along the international boundary
i lines of Canada and Mexico. We
j have no means of knowing how
' many men and women, hostile to
; American institutions and demo
| cralic government, have surreptl
j tlously entered the United States.
• Still another means of illegal in
| gress has been for Reds to ship
;as sailors and desert upon reach
! itig this country. Under our pres
, ent law. the ship owners can be
i penalized by a $lO fine only. We
purpose making the penalty more
I stringent."
Would Relieve tlie Courts.
The House committee. Mr. Sie
gel said, will recommend the es
tablishment of the Naturalization
I Court so that Federal and other
i judges, whose time is taken up with
| hearing hundreds of civil and crim
inal cases, may be relieved of a
task of immense importance to the
country's welfare but which, by
the very nature of things at pres
ent. is generally slighted from
sheer judicial necessity.
Last year, Air. Siegel said, the
Government realized a net profit
from naturalization fees of $450,-
000 and the profit to date since the
beginning of the immigration ser
vice has been $10,000,000. Such a
j court, it was said, could expedite
I hearings and "undesirables" in
' stead of being released on their
! own recognizance or paroled in the
| custody of their lawyers, could be
ordered deported within thirty
days.
One Judge, said the Congress
man. his mind preoccupied with
other cases recently had a lot of
naturalization eases before him.
The crowd in the courtroom repre
sented several nationalities. Soon
!a bailiff shouted: "All you Czecho
slovaks hold up your hands'." Up
went the hands of about a dozen.
The judge .thinking of other press
ing matters, soberly remarked:
"Gentlemen oV' the jury!" hut
j quickly recovered himself and ad
-1 ministered the oath of citizenship.
I Here was a ceremony which should
J have been attended with great care
: and solemnly turned almost into a .
j vaudeville show.
A Naturalization Court, presid
!ed over by Federal Judges similar
I to the Circuit Court of Appeals and
.where it would not be known who
was to administer the oath of allegi
ance, declared Mr. Siegel, would
lend dignity and force to one of the
most sacred obligations imposed
upon the alien and start him right
on the road to patriotism and good
citizenship.
