I am of! the opinion that for the best interests of our Nation. for the best interests of the people of our country. before we legislate permanently on the uestion of immigration that we should have thorouglh. unbiased. and unprejudiced information. I feel that that information could be had. and I know that a different proposition would then be submitted to the House. I am of the opinion that it would be for the best interest of the Nation for the present to modify the present 3 per cent (luota let by eliminating its harsh provisions. and extending it for a year and a half. and for a commission. an unbiased commission. not controlled by any British propaganda o1 any buncll of lobbyists. to be appointed. who would be responsible for this legislation.
