Chairman. I do not intend at this time to consume one hour. It is not my purpose at this time. with the Immigration Commission. of which I am a member. still sitting and considering this question. to go into a consideration of the entire question of immigration: I do wish. however. to make some remarks in connection with the remarks of the gentleman from Iowa [Mr. 1IBURN]. and I think it only fair that I should state to the House that the times when those advertisements were printed to which he referred were at least twenty years ago. and that today there is not a country In Europe. with the exception of Greece. where a steamship agent who would put out an advertisement like that would not be put into Jail. In Hungary. within the last five years..xvhere steamship agents have tried that. they have been arrested. convicted. and imprisoned. Twentyfive years ago the conditions were even worse than the gentleman from Iowa says.
