You are embarking upon a policy that will harass and annoy and embarrass every Member of this House. Why do I make that statement? In my district we have very few foreign born or their relatives. yet if I have at least one case where the man has performed great service to this country. which I could press. whose great service to a great organization of relief I could press in support of a private bill. what is going to happen to those of you who have nmnerous families of foreign born in your districts? You may do it. if you want to. you may embark upon the policy of granting citizenship by special act. but I am not going to help you do it. and I am not going to sit silent without voicing my protest against such a course of action.
