The more illiterate of the aliens. once here. quickly absorb the teachings. Some of the worst of our recent strikes can be attributed. in part. to these things. Gentlemen. I tell you frankly that that is why the American Federation of Labor is for the provisions of this bill. Their leaders know the disorder such preachings bring about. That organization has had to stand. against such agitators. Sometimes I think that great employers of labor have been so busy fighting organized labor that they have not had time to see just how the newly arrived alien labor is organizing and what kind of riot it must produce in time. Mr. Speaker.
