Mr. Speaker. I think that as a member of the Immigration Commission I ought perhaps to say that the provision inserted in the bill for the commission is. so far as I am concerned. and as- far as I have been able to consult the members of the commission. entirely satisfactory. There is no reason why we ought not to complete our work in a year. and there Is no reason why we ought to spend In the fiscal year provided for by this bill more than the money appropriated. The gentleman from Kansas . who the other day made the point of order against the appropriation of $300.000 as it came from the committee. deprived me of the unique opportunity of offering an amendment. which I had already prepared. reducing the amount of the appropriation from $300.000 to $200.000.
