According to the press and cloakroom gossip. we are .to adjourn early in June. I am making these remarks to call the attention of those charged with responsibility -for legislation to abill I introduced on October 24. 1919H. R. 10155entitledA bill to deport from :the United States certain aliens who withdrew their declaration of intention to become citizens to evade military service. and to suspend all Immigration to the United States -until January .1. 1930. I am profoundly convinced thlt the welfare and best interests of the United States demand that thls or some other bill of the same tenor and effect be enacted into law before we adjourn. In my judgment. the immigration -question is -one of the most important problems that confront us today. and upon its correct solution largely depends the perpetuity -of our sacred Institutions and our American form of government. In .our early history some of the. older States opposed admitting our western Territories into the sisterhood of :States. -fearing these new States would exercise undue -influence in shaping. .national affairs.
