The President proceeds to say what I was about to read: "Restriction of immigration is the first Important thing to be done if we expect permanent prosperity. I hope the strike will not extend throughout the textile industries." continued the President earnestly. That is an admission. as I claimed in my former remarks. that the President has abandoned the hope of bringing permanent prosperity to the country through the socalled Dingley bill. He falls back on this statement. that now we must pass laws restricting immigration into this country. He says that this is the first great step. " the first important thing"-not the second. but the firstso that it takes precedence of the Dingley bill as a prosperity bringer. What does this all mean?
