Mr. Speaker and gentlemen of the House. the lodestone that controlled the Committee on Immigration was what was the best to do for America and for American institutions. A special committee of the Committee on Immigration three years ago spent some four months traveling over the United States from city to city and going into the various features of immigration. studying legislation which it thought would be proper and best to present to the Congress. The provisions of this bill are in response. in great part. to the facts which were developed In that investigation. When that committee came back and reported a year and a half ago. the then committee. except two members. was unanimous for the matter contained In the bill reported to the House.
