These statistics were gathered for me. I have respect for the leaders of the great labor organizations. but I sometimes think they become unduly alarmed over this question and fail to understand the real sentiments of the people whom they represent. We have here petitions from the United Miners Union. and yet the majority of the miners are immigrants who are aiding to bring their friends here and secure work for them. It is the same in many other branches of labor. and I have been unable to find the same hostility to the immigrant in the ranks of labor that is represented by the leaders of the labor organizations. There has always been a kindred feeling in the ranks of labor. which extends the hand of fellowship to newcoiers.
