This bill comes to you with the unanimous report of the Connittee on Immigration. I could not help but think. when the chairman 1 was sleaking about Ellis Island. that. while we examined a numbser of men who boasted that they were anarchists. he asked a .-oung mail certain questions and learned that he had been at Yale for two years. He was their press agent. He said. " You can deport us. There is no doubt of that. but we are coming back again. aud then God pity you when we do come back." The chairmn said. "What lire you going to do--burn builhings?" His answer was. "No. we are not going to burn the buildings.
