There is no authority under the existing laws ofthe United States to prevent the landing of persons who are commonly known as anarchists. They are the only additional class of persons now deemed necessary to provide against. Our laws in regard to immigration seemed to be remarkably well framed. and if honestly and vigorously carried out will do much towards preventing what is known as undesirable immigration. I do not propose to call the attention of the Senate to the classes who are now excluded. and unless a property qualification should be added. which is not deemed wise. every other improper class is excluded by existing lawsexcept the persons who may be called anarchists. The necessity for this portion of the bill arises not only from what is patentto everyone who understands the existing situation. but also from the fact that nearly all the principal European countries are now legislating against this class of people. and if they aren6t excluded from the United States this country will soon be the dumping giound of the anarchists of the world..
