The quota from Assyria was small. and when they arrived at our Pacific port the quota had been exhausted. What shall we do with them? We can not send them back to Assyria. They have no way of getting there. Furthermore. the Turk would be there to exterminate those who arrived. In this group of 2.400 are 200 Armenian refugee children. They were gathered together by American citizens. who brought them here in good faith. with no knowledge of the fact that coming from the Armenians of Turkey they were properly chargeable to Turkey. whose quota was exhausted. You who are opposing this law. what do you advise doing with them?
