I will say to the Senator from Rhode Island. replying to the statement of the Senator from North Carolina . that today the Public Health Service of the United States intends to take over the quarantine service at New York. a great port of entry. For years the quarantine station at New York was under the control of the State of New York. although the Federal immigration authorities checked up the immigrants and observed them to determine from what diseases they might be suffering. but after today. I believe. the Federal Government itself will have complete control of the matter. Government officials informed me as late as yesterday that they are taking every precaution to check in every way possible the matter of typhus cases coming into the United States.
