The bill does represent the best composite that could be made and that which we believe best represents the enlightened sentiment. judgment. and patriotic purpose of the people of the United States. I want to say now. lest I forget it later. that this bill ought to pass unamended. If you favor immigration restriction you ought to vote for this measure. if you want an excuse to vote against immigration restriction you will find something in it you can criticize. You will always be able to find that. but you will not promote the great cause in which the people of the United States are so much interested by weakening or breaking up this measure by amendment. You will not promote the great cause by voting for illconsidered amendments. for the chances are that every amendment you might propose has been considered over and over and over again.
