He was speaking in a foreign language. and I asked. "What is he saying?" The interpreter replied. "He is urging the overthrow of our institutions. he is saying. Down with America. defy her courts and refuse to go to war." That is the substance of what that alien orator was saying. I inquired. "Do they permit that here?" He said. "Oh. yes. there are a dozen meetings like that here in the city tonight." I thought of that situation as the able Senator from New York proceeded with his speech. "Immigration. how beautiful art thou in the city of New York."
