I use that one race as a type. but it is true of others. What say you of transferring to this country that spirit of intolerance and oppression which has been the curse of Europe? Over there stands your aristocrat declaring " I was selected by God to control the earth. and these other creatures may creep around and crawl between my feet. but they shall be denied opportunity. and I shall dominate and control." Now. we. whose ancestors came but a few short years back from those same dark spots of earth. whose ancestors came bearing upon their skins the marks of masters whips. rise in our selfadulation and in our assumed greatness. and say. "We join with the European and Asiatic tyrants in excluding and denying privilege to these poor people who are conditioned as were our own ancestors." So. men who themselves have struggled from the waves and gained a -seat upon the raft kick back into the waters gaping mouth others who struggle for a place of safety. Democrats. the five or six who are here. if you but read the utterances of Jefferson. to whom you pray as you go intoyour political temple. you wvill find he was a big enough man to say -that no man should be denied opportunity because he was born on a particular spot of earth. But this committee takes a blue pencil and excludes all those born within onethird of the earths surface that is not covered with water. and yet I will in the future as in the past see and hear the Democratic members of the committee invoking the name Jefferson every time they :lvance some proposition they can not bolster with their own logic!
