Speech #590162974

Every Senator knows that in due course of time. probably at the next session. Congress will pass a freetrade bill with the Filipinos. and manufacturing plants will be established down there. and they will get their labor from Japan.. I could not allow this bill to pass without stating. as one of the representatives of the Pacific coast. that I think it would be more manly to meet this question fairlyto exclude the Japanese coolies and laborers or allow them to come inand not by this subterfuge. to meet a pressing political exigency in San Francisco. fasten this legislation on the country. I shall be constrained. feeling as I do in regard to it. to vote against the conference report. and if it is beaten. I hope the conferees will bring in the resolution offered by the Senator from Texas .
