Mr. Chairman. the bill is the nanimous report from the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. I would not take any time of the committee were it not for the fact of some remarks that were made some time ago. There has been no one to my mind more energetic in putting on restrictions and regulations of Immigration than the majority of the Committee on Immigration. and this bill only demonstrates what was said a few moments ago in regard to the rules and regulations permitting aliens to come to this country. We have on the statute book very stringent regulations in regard to the steamship companies bringing over large quanities of men for the purpose of employment for labor. They can not by advertisement. they can not by deception or fraud. bring them over. and every man. woman. and child that is brought to this country by the steamship companies who is not entitled to be admitted. the steamship company is fined for trying to have the people land. and in addition they must pay the expenses of the people while they are here and return them home at the companies own expense.
