Mr. President..the Senator from Missouri a moment ago stated that in his talk with an -official of the Immigration Service this morning he was reminded that this whole question was one largely of selection and distribution. I have always held that view. It is unquestionably true. Sixty .years ago. when a great many immigrants were coming here from the British Isles. from Germany. and from the Scandinavian countries. while many of those immigrants stopped in the large centers of the East. a large proportion of them went farther west. To the Irish. the Germans. and the Scandinavian peoples we owe the splendid citizenry that we -have today in Wisconsin. Michigan.
