I have the report of the Commissioner of Immigration before me on my desk. and I know that there is a certain class of immigrants coming to this country who ultimately intend to return to Europe. A large number of Italian immigrants who come.to this country return. as do a great many of the Chinese and Japanese. That may lessen the numbers that stay here. but. according to the gentlemans own figures. of the men that came last year 600.000 would remain. and we would have the same problem. maybe in a little less degree. but the same problem of assimilating those people and raising them to American standards. Now. look at the difference.
