Yes. that is the way the game Is being played. both ends against the middle. I want to show that partisan politics has been Injected into this proposition by the foreign bloc. For example. here is what Major Curran. commissioner of immigration at Ellis Island. said: I had a telegram from a Congressman the other day demanding the admission of a certain Greek immigrant because. he said. the Greek vote in his city depended upon the admission of that immigrant. and there were 8.000 Greek votes in that city. Just what is a "Greek vote" in America? What business has It to be here?
