Socialism. bolshevism. and anarchy are playing unusual parts in the history and welfare of those nations. and are threatening the very foundation of their governments. Bolshevism and anarchy may draw their slimy trail across the map of Europe and write their destructive doctrines into the history of the nations over there. but never with my vote or influence will they make their unholy imprint upon America or American institutions. It is absolutely imperative that this Congress close the door at this time to all immigration except those whose entrance is provided for by the provisions of this bill. such as children and parents of citizens. travelers. scholars. and so forth. in order that we may have time to make sure that this country and its institutions shall not be impaired or destroyed by the foreign element. We stand today. as never before in the history of the world. as the leaders in thought and democracy. and are emulated as never before by the other nations of the world. and if we are to make secure the place we have taken in history we must take time now in the mad rush for money and in the disturbed days of demobilization and reconstruction to save this country to Americans. American ideals. and American institutions. and to see that our standards and ideals are not poisoned or lowered by the incoming hoards from other countries of the world.
