President. when it stands admitted here on the floor of the Senate. even by the chairman of the committee reporting this bill. that these people in this land where these things have occurred and are still occurring are suffering these frightful wrongs solely because of their race. upon what ground. In the name of reason and of humanity. can we open the door to the Jew who can prove that in some other country. perchance. he is persecuted for his. religious convictions and practices and at the same time close the door in the face of his brother fleeing from the particular country to which the extracts I have read refer. to escape the bitter persecution leveled at him and.his children. not because of his religion. as the Senator from South Carolina said. but because he belongs to this particular race of human beings? If the Senator from South Carolina or any of his confreres on the Immigration Committee can give a reason for this distinction. I would be glad to hear it.
