Mr. President. only a word. and then I shall be glad to yield to the Senmator from Alabama. Mr. President. I think it is the opinion of everybody who has been interested in this great work and has examined into its conditions that it can not be done and must end In failure unless the ordinary labor.. the digging. the work. of transportation by day laborers is done not by our people. not by our laborers. not by anybody here. black or white. but by alien labor brought to the Isthmus from certain other countries which produce a population that will not be decimated or destroyed the moment it is put at work on the canal.
Identified stereotypes
Alien laborers from certain countries are more resilient and better suited for the canal work.
