We also imposed limitations upon her sanitation. practically throwing the sanitary conditions of the island under the control of the United States. Now. we have gone that far in our imperialistic policy regarding Cubaalmost relegating her to the position of a military dependency. In this bill we go farther. and we impose upon her our immigration laws and our contractlabor laws. Those immigration laws are good laws and those contractlabor laws are good laws. We have all participated in their enactment. But what I protest is that this country. an independent government. has no right to impose upon Cuba. an independent government. our own laws. laws which may ultimately restrain and control the line of growth which she may desire to pursue.
