We do not want Japanese. Chinese. Hindu. Turk. Greek. Italian. or any other nationality until we can clean house. While engaged in that work we do not want any more bread lines than we can help. I warn you that this country can not stand this influx. The immigration coming now is the most undesirable that ever came to the United States. Look out! How strange it is to hear men on the floor favor this influx. to see them oppose this bill. and then to hear them beg for provisions that would deport them for attending soine school like the hand School!
