WASHINGTON- Msrcrt j t-A "tatenvaat
was Issued by tha department of asllce to-
day concerning an opinion a'ubm!tt(d to Pres-
ident Roosevelt by Attcrney General Bona-
parte as to whether certain Immigrants who
were landed In South Carolina last fall ar
legally in this country The. opinion Jn ef-
fect Is that the ImialsrantJver entitled to
admission to this coantMand that tacjr ar
in this country legally: 1 ' t
This opinion egress with that rendered on
tho same case by eolh:ltcr Eart of 'tha de-
partment of commerce and labor. The at-
torney general holds further however that
under the provisions of tha recently enactel
Immigration act the Immigrants in question
could have been excluded. . '
The statement In part says! '' ' -
"It appears from th statements furnished
by the department of i-omaierce and labor
mat the legislature of the Bute created th
otfioe of Immigration commissioner and
made an appropriation of fJWO for Its ex-
pense for the express purpose of encourag-
ing Immigrants to come Inta that State It
also appears that certain private pantos
made up a fund amounting to about $(
which was placed In the hands of Commis-
sioner F. J. Watson and with these re-
sources he went abroad and by advertlw-
mimts anil otherwise collected a consider
able number of laborers or artisans who
were willing to Immigrate to South Caro-
lina where labor it ia understood waa in
great demand.
"Me pHid the passage of these people by
nn agreement which was afterwards can-
celled that they should repay him out 01
their wages from employment he might pro-
cure them. I'micr the terms of the agree-
ment signed by the immigrants and Com-
missioner Watson the latter promised to find
.employment for the former but the Immi-
grants themselves were free to reject anyi
particular offer of emirfoyment that might
be -made to them." .
The attorney general holda In affect that
the original provisions of the alien contract
labor law of 18ft were not repealed by the
immigration law of 1M3 and that after WOJ
whenever passHec money had been paid of
auy alien laborer who came tQ. this coon-'
try under a previous contract to perform
labor here such alien laborer was not enti-
tled to admlsaion Into the I'nlted States but
that thla did not operate however to in-
clude laborers In question because accordt
Ing to the construction placed upon the ac
of ISta by the courta It was an essential
condition to e violation of that law that
tha laborers should be under a previous en-
forceable contract.

senate committee Is In harmony with the
house bill and that the two committee havo
been working together. Just where tha gov-
ernor will do the penciling Is not known but
It Is not believed ne will pencil If he can get-
a -revenue-raising bill In his office for his
signing. The committees have been very
careful with the increase and have recom-
mended only where It was needed. The bill
Is drawn very conservatively and in' view of
the. decisions of the higher courts sustaining
the Williams bill and the Love bill It may-
be that the governor "will be satisfied to let
this bill stand anticipating the revenue-
reining measures which will be passed. The
figures given abeve do not Include the few
miscellaneous Items which will he added
