They are so far away from the United States we can not supervise their work. and I. for one. would much prefer to have the vis6 or the certificate plan within control In the United States of the State and Labor Departments. rather than in the hands of the American consul miles and miles away whom we can not supervise. and who in the past. according to the proof. have been bribed and have discriminated because of likes or dislikes. I think an investigation will prove that to be the fact. There are some features in this bill that are most desirable. but I think they were placed in the bill with the Intent of making the public believe that it is a restrictive immigration bill when in fact It Is not. when In truth the only purpose to be served by It will be to keep the doors open for all Mexicans. for all Canadians. for all of South and Central America. Great Britain. and Germany. and shut the doors against the immigrants fron southern and eastern Europe. I protest against the passage of this bill.
