Should the Chinaman die in America his bones are not permitted to fertilize our soil. but are carefully carried back to the home of his forefathers. When he is among us he is not of us. No man should eat anything that he can not digest. No immigrants should be taken into the body politic who can not be assimilated. So by common consent. and regardless of party politics. we today are discussing the most effective method of preserving America for the Americans by admitting into our country only those who may be fitted to become an integral part of the citizenship of the American people. To continue our past policy in this regard is necessary for selfpreservation.
