1 say in answer to that that we are trying to reach that before the Immigration Committee in this way: We have a bill pending there whereby we will suspend the operation of the immigration law as to all of the aliens who are now going abroad with our forces or with the Polish. CzechoSlovak. or the JugoSlovak armies. or who join the allied forces in Europe. Mr. Speaker. to those in whom there remains any doubt as to the merits of this bill I desire to say that the people covered by this bill came to these shores to escape a tyrannical dynasty. allegiance to which they never subscribed and the overthrow of which they have struggled and sought for centuries.
