President. I am going to give a history of this matter as disclosed in a letter from the Secretary of the Department of Commerce and Labor. Under the law as it now exists the commissioner of the State of South Carolina. supplied with funds by individuals. has been bringing in immigrants to be employed in the cotton mills of South Carolina and other industries where they are so much needed. Several shiploads have been brought in. The attention of the country having been drawn to it. an effort was made to bring the commissioner or the officer of the State under the terms of the law as a violator of it.
