The operation of this law is now displayed by the enforcemnt of the provision of the law for punishment of bureau heads who ignore the law by creating deficiencies. This one statute will go further to place the Governments business upon a sound and economic basis than any piece of legislation in our time. and will be one of the outstanding accomplishments of legislation. Congress. alive to the hopeless European situation. took proper steps against the inevitable flood of immigration. which would further complicate our industrial problem and enlarge our unemployment to the great detriment of our own labor. At an early hour of the special session it passed the immigration law further limiting it to 3 per cent of the nationals already here. Congress also corrected the weaknesses in the treatment of our disabled veterans by the creation of the Veterans Bureau. by concentrating all agencies for this work under one responsible head. Instead of the necessity of applying to three distinct agencies. all separate. the soldier now applies to one person who acts at once.
