Speech #670283005

I ask the members of the committee to remember. first of all. that this bill was unanimously indorsed. regardless of political lines. by the Committee on Labor. It seems to me that such united action on the part of those who have studied the question should have weight with those who do not know the facts. I have voted for every restriction against foreign immigration that has come before me since I have been in Congress. I am compelled to take Issue with my genial friend. the gentleman from Texas [Mr. Box]. when I declare that the argument he has been making about things going wrong up yonder at Ellis Island does not touch this situation at all.
