A drastic measure against immigration during the next year was adopted on February 19 by the senate, which by 61 to 2 passed the Dillingham immigration bill after adding amendments to increase its restrictive features. The hill, it is estimated, would limit immigrants during the next twelve months to slightly over 355,000. The bill was adopted as a substitute for the Johnson bill, passed by the house. The latter would bar for a year all immigrants, ' except relatives of aliens now here. The bills go to conference for adjustment. Advocates of tihe Dillingham substitute declared that it would keep out more immigrants than the Johnson measure. Both bills would go into effect within two months, with the Dillingham measure effective for fifteen and the Johnson bill for fourteen months. It took the senate less than five hours to dispose of the immigration legislation. The two senators opposing passage were France, Republican, Maryland, and Reed, Democrat, Missouri. Before passing the substitute, the senate defeated, 43 to 19, a motion to adopt the Johnson bill. Forty per cent less immigrants would be admitted under the Dillingham bill than as reported by the senate immigration committee. This was accomplished by reducing the basis of immigration from 5 to 3 per cent of the number of aliens here according to the 1910 census. The amendment was offered Harrison, Democrat,' Mississippi, who led the fignt-t- o make tfhe legislation more drastic.'

The announcement embodying the first official word from the president-elec- t regarding selections for this cabinet was made in an oral statement after a lon;f conference between the two men on foreign problems. There was no element of surprise in the selection, for it had been known several weeks Mr. Hughes virtually was certain to be given the place. He is understood to have been Mr. Hardings choice from the first. Attacks Education Gifts. An attack against John D. Rockefeller for his donation of $70,000,000 to thr general education board was made in a statement by the New York State Federation of Labor.

FEES PASSES BEEGMILLER MEASURE LOWER HOUSE OF THE UTAH Will Become Effective Upon Approval, ' and Author Claims it Will Add Approximately $600,000 to Annual Revenues. 355,-00- list of 'deliveries made by Germany to the allies which were issued by the reparations commission in Paris January 22 have been compiled by the World Peace Foundation and were made public February 20. The tables show what has been accomplished in obtaining payment from Germany andv effecting her disarmament. There is no basis for computing what penentage of reparations is liquidated by Germanys deliveries to that" account! because there is no bill of particulars giving her liabilities," the foundation says. It continues, has reGermany, mitted "to the reparations commission sixty billion marks gold bearer bonds, to be cancelled by payments in goods and gold, and there is not unnatural difference between the parties as to the value of the commodities delivered. , The German, claim is that the gold marks represents the payments already made; the reparations commission says these 'substantially exceed the real figures. Some comparisons of debt and payment are afforded. There has been a delivery of 360,176 beasts as against a treaty demand of 370,900. A delivery in one year .of 2,054,779 tons of shipping Is .compared with a loss of 8,517,-9l- 5 tons by Great Britain.

Tlid author of the measure, Representative Seegmll-ler- , said that it was anticipated that It would increase the motor vehicle license receipts to some extent this year, but nothing in comparison to what tbe Increase would be next year, when every car owner would be required to pay the higher fees. It was expected, he said, to add approximately $600,000 to the annual revenues of the state. A measure has been presented by S. W. Morrison which provides that any voluntary association of seven or more' members may sue and be sued in ' the name of the association, and that service ' of process upon any officer, manager or managing agent of such association shall constitute service upon the association. The bill vtould make any organization, especially labor unions, liable for suit, and it would, according to its language make the members liable also. The Southwick income tax measure was the subject of lengthy debate during a hearing before the committee, the measure'being declared Impractical by some of those who appeared before the committee.

Two years ago such a measure appeared in the legislature, but it failed of enaction. Representative Clawson has introduced a bill to increase the hours of labor for female help. It goes further than the Quinney bill, killed in the senate last week, for it would increase the working day from eight to eight and one-hahours, and it would delete that provision in the existing statute which would provide that more than eight hours may be worked "in cases of emergency where life or property is in imminent danger. Governor Mabeys proposal for a state bond issue of $1,500,000 for state road purposes, took concrete form on February 19 in the shape of a bill providing for such an indebtedness. The measure was introduced in the house by Representative Day. The bill would authorize the state land commission to provide for and negotiate as needed for the purposes of the measure, loans aggregating $1,500,000, the bonds to bear a rate of interest to be fixed by the land board, but not to exceed 5 per cent. Funds for the printing of the bonds and' other necessary preparations for the' issue are provided for in the bill. They would be taken from the motor vehicle registration fund, and these funds also would be used to pay the Interest on the bonds. As a companion bill to the proposed road bond issue, Representative Day introduced a bill wlgch would repeal the action of the legislature of 1919, which called for a bond issue of for the Utah soldier settlement fund. The measure simply provides for the repeal of the soldier settlement act.

The members of the house decided to hold a session on Monday. v , By unanimous consent, one bill was Introduced in the senate February 19.

The bills as passed by the state legislature are in force on approval, with one exception, whidlf has no particular effect on the general program.
