Mr. Speaker. I need not point out other important and beneficial measures which the House has passed and sent to the Senatesuch as the bill requiring that in the future immigrants edming here to become a part of our body politic shall be able to read and write their own language. the bankruptcy bill. the bill abolishing the fee system in paying United States district attorneys and United States marshals. the "filled cheese" bill. so called. to protect the dairy interests of the country. the bill to amend the administrative customs laws so as to prevent. so far as pessible. undervaluations. the bill to establish a labor commission to investigate labor questions. etc.. and other bills of importance. but the Senate took up and passed only two of these bills. Mr. Speaker. the gentleman from Missouri has endeavored to give the impression that the appropriations of this Congress exceed those of other Congresses. particularly those of recent years. but there is not the slightest foundation for this representation.
