Let us have a multiplication of the beneficence of Henry Ford. of Detroit. who labors not for himself alone. but thinks of those who labor and cooperate with him in his great industrial plant. We have hampered trade by restrictive tariffs and bartered way our natural opportunities for a song. And now. with the sanctity of the Pharisee of old. we are preparing to visit our own sins upon the heads of innocent immigrants. Another thought comes to me: One would imagine. listening to the debate in this House. that immigrants do nothing but labor and that they existed without eating and ran around without clothes. Let us remember that they are consumers as well as producers and that their needs vastly broaden the market of commerde. If there is no reason other than the obsession of some people cn this subject. and that is all there seems to be to it. then this bill should meet with the defeat it deservedly merits.
