C. A. and other organizations that preach the doctrine of Americanism. But where there is the least suspicion that false doctrines of radicalism prevail in the wouldlie immigrant we keep him out. I am now planning to organize a system that will greatly facilitate us in determining whether or not the immigrant is desirable. What I want to bring about is to have the immigrant obtain in his native country a police certificate before he applies for admission to this country. This police certificate will give his entire record and tell us if he is an honest man or a criminal. a good citizen or a plotter. In addition to a character certificate I want every immigrant to have a certificate of health. We must guard against contagious diseases in this country. And when .we obtain these certificates of character and health we must still continue with ouf examination on this side of the ocean.
