Yet. Mr. Speaker. this absurd literacy test will admit the dangerous European criminal of the continental cities and bar out the honest and hardworking and badly needed peasantfarmer and laborerwhether he be English or Irish or French or German or Hebrew or Polish or Italian or Lithuanian. In every crisis of the colintrys history these alien classes have stood loyally by the Republic that gave them asylum and home. And I venture to say that the domestic dangers. violences. insurrections. and rebellions that have come to this Republic have always been the work of native Americans and never of aliens. literate or illiterate.
