I want to emphasize what I stated yesterday. that I am not opposed to the creation of the Department of Labor. My opposition is simply directed to some of the phases of this meastre. I do not believe that the Bureau of Immigration should be chailged. and if changed at all it should go to the Department of State. I believe that I can state without any successful coilt radiction that dyer since I came to Congress every vote I have recorded has been in the interest of the wage earner and friendly rather than unfriendly to labor. I wish to say further that my action in the future will demonstrate the fact that I want to see labor treated not only fairly.but put upon a higher plane if possible than it is today.
