We have discussed Ellis self-respecting, decent workpeople,, benefit the United States in the Island with many scores of people keep away. who were likely to give us first-hand information on the subject, but we have never yet beard this charge brought against the administration, Individual attendants may, of course, vent their personal spite on im- migrants of the nationalities which they do not care for, but that is an occurrence which is always likely to occur and whose elimination is a very difficult matter.
It is not such points as these that require investigation; it is the whole erstem of Ellis Island. Into our per- scual knowledge a short time ago came the experience of an educated English- man who served from the very beginning of the war, and always refused to accept a commission, or even the lance-corporal's s'ogle stripe. He was content to be a Tommy, and to get thoroughly to know the men Leside whom he was fighting. After the Armistice bis very considerable interests in the United States required a good deal of personal attention, and, finding that all the first and second class cabins Westbound were packed to overflowing, he did not consider it any sort of a hardship to cross in the
