HIS CHARGES ARE UNTRUE Authorities at Ellis Island Deny that Children Could "Die Like Flies," as Claimed. The Bureau of Immigration, of the Department of Labor, published a report yesterday on an investigation made by officers at Ellis Island following the publication of a speech in which the Rev. Paul H. Land, Ellis Island missionary, claimed that immigrant children "died like flies" because of exposure. The speech of the Rev.

Mr. Land was made on September 21, before the Lutheran Synod in this city. The Bureau of Immigration based its investigation on the story published by The Washington Herald-the only full account of the speech published in Washington, it was said by officials at the department. In the report it was denied that the charges of the Rev. Mr.

Land were true, or were based on actual conditions. Testimony tended to show that Mr. Land had never been through the wards of the hospitals against which he complained, but had taken the word of immigrant women. Mr. Land, when questioned during the investigation, admitted this, and said that some of his remarks had been "misquoted." Cause of Inquiry, The story of The Herald of the speech of Mr.

Land is reprinted, in part. from the issue of September 22: "The free air treatment, which seems to be the rage among physicians of today, is the cause of hundreds of immigrant children dying like so many flies. said Dr. Land. "Most of the immigrant children who come to this country have spent most of their lives on the farm.

They have all of the free air in their work and little in their houses. When at work they dress warmly, and of all the peoples who dislike to raise a window the farmer takes the prize. These children are accustomed sleeping in warm rooms, and when put in the hospital wards at Ellis Island with nothing but a thin sheet over them they die like flies. to be one of the most modern in the or hospital at Ellis Island, claimed land, is. a death trap for the immigrant children.

They are compelled to lie in rooms with the windows and doors wide open. They get all of the fresh air they usually get in their work, but they are not dressed to stand it." The story printed by The Herald was brought to the attention of Commissioner General of Immigration A. Caminetti, and he ordered the investigation. Ellis Island, examined Land. He Byron on H.

Uhl, acting commissioner at showed him the clipping from The Herald. Mr. Land was asked about the clipping. He replied: "I did not these statements in speech. did say that the free air Pea treatment so seems to be the rage, and that many immigrant children cannot stand it if ill clad, as they are used to of furs.

The immigrant children reach this at country in a weakened condition. It in poorly clad by hospitals, and exposed to continual cold air, they are liable to R. die." for Statements of Women. Mr. Land further that he had based his speech on an experience eight years.

Most of the cases, he admitted, were remembered by him as occurring during the first part of the eight all years. He said there were "two recent cases where I asked women to what they attributed the death of their children in hospitals and they told me, as far as I can remember, that their children could not stand the drafts over there." Mr. Uhl asked what the cases were. Mr. Land replied that "if he was not one of the children was named Herold, and was the child of a "very intelligent woman, a Scandinavian, he believed, who attributed the death of her child to fresh air." Some further admissions follow: "I have never gone through the wards of the contagious hospitals (where the cases were treated at Ellis Island) and I did not mean to say in my speech anything about the doctors.

I have always heard that nurses did not do all they could for the children." Mr. Land said that he was not acquainted with the conditions of which he spoke. He said he had taken the word of the "very intelligent immigrant women." Mr. Land admitted, it was brought out in the investigation by Mr. Uhl, that he had claimed that children died from fresh air.

He said, however, that he had been misquoted. He did not attempt to show how he had been misquoted. he had said that story was garbled, he proceeded, if the report is correct, to admit every word of it. Missionary Is Criticised. Mr.

Uhl sent the following letter to Commissioner General Caminetti: "I observed Mr. Land at Ellis Island and had him call at my office for an interview concerning his alleged statements as to conditions in the Ellis Island Hospital, The child on whose case the charges were based died of measles, diphtheria, broncho-pneumonia, suppuration of the middle ears and gastro enteritis." Dr. L. L. Williams, chief medical officer at Ellis Island, wrote the following letter concerning the charges: "I beg to state that Mr.

Land's statement, for the most part, contains its own sufficient reply in that it principally is a diatribe against the ventilation of wards in which the sick are treated. "The necessity for free ventilation of the sick, especially those suffering from acute infectious diseases, is so universally recognized by all who possess any knowledge of modern medicine that it is quite unnecessary for me to defend it. "The Rev. Mr. Land is doubtless learned in his chosen calling.

It is to be deplored that before straying into the field of another profession he should not have first acquainted with its elementary principles. "It should be stated that many of the deaths recorded in the contagious disease hospital at Ellis Island occurred in the case of patients brought to the hos- "See Etz and see better." EDWIN H. ETZ Optician, 1003 Street pital from the in a moribund dition." In another letter Mr. Williams says la scarcely necessary to state that none of the diseases suffered by the children referred to by Mr. Land could be caused by excess of fresh air."
