I do not believe there is another Member of the Senate who believes anything of the kind. If I can do so. I am going to have a vote on the immigration bill. I believe.the country is entitled to it and I think the Senate ought to legislate on that question. Mr. President there is already a large number of unemployed people in this country due to business depression which has followed the World War. The problems confronting this country in our economic reconstruction are so great and serious that it is inadvisable to permit further the wholesale immigration of aliens.
