I will read it to you. Mr. SAUNDERS said: Mr. Speaker. I will never support this undemocratic policy of Government ownership until it Is embodied in and made a part of our party platform. When President Wilson vetoed the immigration bill. which had passed both branches of Congress by immense majorities. lie made the following explanation of his action in his veto message: Does this J)Ill rest upon the conscious and universal assent and desire of the Ainericmn people? I doubt it. It is because I doubt it that I make bold to dissent from it. I am willing to abide by the verdict. but not until it has been rendered.
