In deciding that question we may well give heed to the humane considerations. everywhere recognized by enlightened men and nations. But the problem and the responsibility is ours. I would Ise this further restriction of our immigration upon the ground that our present population. with its mingled blood of many races. has developed a cosmopolitan type. but it distinct type. a Nation. a distinct Government. a people with their own standard of living. their own social. political. and econiomic life. To protect that peopletheir ideals and institutions. and preserve this Nation. as our America. is our duty and our opportunity.
