Mr. Speaker. the existing law restricting Chinese immigration expires by limitation on the 6th of next month. and unless some prompt action is taken by Congress to prevent this immigration there will be an influx of this unassimilative and undesirable race of people in larger numbers than ever before. as thousands upon thousands are ready to swarm our shores. It is an indisputable fact that notwithstanding the present restrictive act they are coming in over our land borders in large numbers and at times as they desire. Therefore. the necessity of the passage of a restrictive law is immediate. And while the present law has given the country some relief it has been demonstated by experience that it is not sufficient for the end desired. that is. to prevent the further incoming of these people.
