MTlr. President this little digression gmphasizes thedifficulties in the way of changing our immigration and naturalization laws. There is a great deal of objection to it. as -I discovered early. Every time such a proposition is broached in this Chamber. if anything is said about it at all. the same.difficulties appear.. I have given attention to the -situation. I have given due weight to this difficulty. In.answer to the Senator from.Connecticut I said that I believe every -man and every woman is .entitled to as much .of the earths surface as is sufficient to keep him living. I do not believe that the earth or any part of it belongs to any one person in his own sole right. except .only just enough to maintain him.
