President. one of this dangerous class preached sedition and treason while our boys were fighting and dying in France. He sought to paralyze the arm of the Government when its liberties were imperiled and its life was at stake. He was convicted and sentenced to prison for his crime against the country. Scores more of the same class were arrested and imprisoned at that time. It is our duty to provide immigration laws that will keep such people out of our country. We have discovered thousands of such undesirables in certain sections of our country. occupying space and cumbering the ground. They are out of place on the civic soil of America.
