The other proposition. Mr. Chairman. is that there are many associations and some people who are advocating the policy that the Government at its expense should furnish means for the distribution of immigrants throughout the country It would be manifestly unjust to require the Government to pay the expenses. or any part of the expenses. of these people to force them upon others who do not want them. Yet such would be the result of that kind of legis.ntion. The Progressive Party in one of the planks of its platform. as I recollect it. announced that It believed in a distribution. perhaps. of that kind. I believe it woul be unfair to people who favor keeping out that class of Immigrants to say that they should be nide to bear any part of the burden of carrying those people into their communities. The very communities Into which the ndvocates of distribution by Government want to send them are the ones in which they are not wanted. And then the greatest trouble.
