It is a very easy thing for gentlemen who desire to import labor under contractto have it called "skilled labor." The man who worksinthe mines is a skilled laborer. I think- the man who works in a factory is a skilled laborer. When the men were locked out of the glassmaking establishments in this country there were found "skilled workmen" to take their places. and when the iron manufacturers close their doors against American workmen because they will not work at reduced wages. and sometimes at starvation wages equal to those of the pauper labor of Europe. then it will be said that it is " skilled labor" that is to be brought under contract from foreign countries. So I move that those words be stricken from the bill.
