For the purpose of anticipating the objection which has been made. I had obtained a letter from him today. reiterating the existence of this necessity. It is one of those things which is upon the Department now. it is not for the future. not for the next fiscal year. but for today. and it is an evil which has been pressing upon our people constantly for months and which is being increased by the access to that section of country of a very large and constantly increasing immigration. The burden of the service today will be its absolute stoppage tomorrow almost. For that reason I think the amendment ought to prevail and prevail now.
