If you did. you would be convinced that illiterate foreigners do not come here to escape anything save. too often. the laws of their own land. which they have violated. They come here because the financial opportunities are greater. because more pumpkins can be grown on an acre of land. and because red wine costs but 19 cents a gallon. There is no more sentiment about these letterless immigrants than there is about a swine drinking clabber milk. The only purpose the majority of them have in coming to this country is to get their feet into the trough. My friends. will you kindly stop figuring from the standpoint of the man in Europe and figure from our own standpoint. and tell me. as long as we can not admit everybody. why we should not take our pick. and have the best?
