Chairman. whenever any question Is before this House affecting immediately orremotely the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. the great majority of this House on that question is subjected to a lecture for lack of statesmanship and sincerity by gentlemen from Baltimore and New York. and I for one am getting a little tired of It. Why the "famous statesman from Baltimore" should feel called upon to thus reflect upon the motives and intelligence of his colleagues I am not aware. but for the gentlemen from New York. their right must not be qfiestioned. After all. is not it known as Greater New York? Is not It a fact that a majority of its population are foreign born? I hasten to withdraw such a plebian expression. I should have said. did they not come from abroad. or to use a commercial term. are they not imported?
