Mr. President. it is a matter of common fairness to men who today are working for much less than the average salary. and whose work calls for tremendous effort and strength. The present time is what they call the "closed" season in immigration. because all the quotas have expired. and every device which sthe wits of dishonest men can work up is being used to cheat one!s way into the United States now. and these men are our -only guards against that kind of .cheating.. This Is a matter of -common justice to them. and It is worth noticing that all the steamship companies. which will pay the bill in the end. have joined in asking us to pass this law. so that these men can get proper compensation.
