I am very glad that the Chinese who come to this country do not come with the intention of remaining. I think that would make the immigration of the Chinese much worse than it is now. My objection to the immigration of Chinese into this country is not that they do not stay here. not that they do not become citizens of the United States. but it is based on an entirely different ground. They are an inferior race. unfit for citizenship in the United States and unfit to be competitors with American laborers. What I suggested was simply whether we had not better have the point to which I referred considered by the proper committee of this body.
