Personally. of course. I feel that the fears that a great flood of immigration will take place from Europe to this country are entirely unfounded. I think there is nothing to substantiate the opinion that there will be a flood of immigration from Europe to this country. When we consider the rates of exchange and what a passage from EAurope costs the average immigrant in European money. it seems to me absolutely impossible that there should be a great immigration from Europe. However. as I said. my objection is based upon the theory that we would be unable to fairly discuss this most important measure in the few remaining days of the present session. I anticipate that very soon after the 4th of March there will be an extra session of Congress at which the matter could be very carefully considered. and a bill brought in which would be a more permanent solution of the problem.
