THE CLEVEREST CROOKS.
NOT BRITISH BUT ALIENS,
[Br CAPT. W: STANLEY SHAW, Of the London Police Court, Mission.]
The master-crocks in this country are mostly aliens; so are master
crook in the United States. The
British and Irish races are on the whole naturally honest. With thousands of the aliens who settled in Great Britain and the United States during the past 35 years the reverse is the case. They are naturally dishonest. When not ac tually trying to break the law they are trying to dodge the law. Their instincts are predatory
When I founded the British Brothers' League and organised the Alien Agitation in East London in 1001, which led to the appointment of the Royal Commission on Alien Immigration in 1902, destitute aliens were pouring into this coun: try at the rate of ever a hundred thousand a year. Many were un- desirable and unclean in their man- ners and habita, many were diseas
Their ed, many were criminal. firestarting propensities were such that fire insurance companies operating in East London refused to insure them.
In some trades-the fur trade în particular their fire-starting and their fake bankruptcies were constant source of amusement to those who did not suffer by those sinister operations. I remember telling a leading man in the fur trade nearly twenty years ago of a certain alien who, after two fires and three bankruptcies, had retired to the Continent to live as a coun try gentleman.
"Oh," he said, "you mean So- and-80,"
actual mentioning the man's name, and I found that-this- practitioner's exploits were quite well known.
