Mr. Chairman. let me again warn this great body against coining race prejudice into law. It is unworthy of any nation to be actuated by motives such as are the propelling force behind this bill. and it is especially unworthy of th2 American people. because they are a Nation of immigrants. Immigration has made America what it is today. It has kindled the fires in the furnaces. cleared the forests. tilled the soil. built the railroads. and worked the mines. It has identified itself with the country and its institutions. defended liberty and law. and supported loyally every movement for progress. for the betterment of social and industrial conditions. and for the elevation of the race.
