Certainly we did. Mr. Chairman. Japan has violated her sacred treaties with us -as though they were "scraps of paper." just as Germany did with the other powers. Did we :submit? Certainly we did. After -the House had passed the last immigration bill and its phraseology did not suit the Japanese foreign office. did we change it when the Japanese Embassy had sent word to that effect to our Secretary of State? I should say we did! When the Japanese foreign office told us that certain State laws objectionable to them were being enacted. did we tell them that was our business?
