Mr. Speaker. we are getting throu~gh this tratfic in human beings by the steamship companies some of the very scum of the earth. I hold in my hand the Washington Times of today. and it very strongly intimates that the steansmship companies have been the cause of hundreds of telegrams being sent to Members. urging them not to vote to pass this immigration bill over the Presidents veto. Mr. Speaker. when will this irafic in human beings stop? When will we pass a law in the interest of the American people on the subject of foreign immigration? A few years ago. when the new King of Denmark took the throne. he immediately pardoned 700 crininalsdegenerates. swindlers. thieves. and murderers. The people of Denmark did not want these criminals to remain in their country. and they made up money and purchased a ticket for every one of these criminals and put them on board a steamship headed for New York.
