We must have restrictions. But where is the official who will send back the little orphaned children to Armenia. to Turkey. or to Assyria? My colleagues. can not you see that our committee. the Committee on Immigration. has the problem of the human heart of the world on its hands? We are trying to find what is best for the United States. I think we know that permanent restriction is best. But people want haste. People cry out. " Suspend all immigration. stop it all! " Ah. they forget about travelers. they forget about visitors. and they forget about students. People see undesirable aliens here and cry out. "Deport them! " As if the United States had millions and millions of money to spend in sending shiploads of deportees and was able to send out all undesirable. and as if we had no treaties. You can not send some anarchist alien who caine from some country away off in the east of Europe. but who came here from England. back to England and do it without the protest of England. I ask you. Members of Congress and all members of the great Committee of the Whole. to look at all the phases of the complex problem.
