If the Senator would permit me. the Immigration bill is here. The present immigration law expires very soon. Congress is compelled to settle the immigration question. We have been having this matter delayed and debated and avoided from year to year. The time has come for America to fix its immigration policy. to fix it firmly. to fix it justly. to fix it in exercise of its sovereign right to control immigration. It is useless to delay the question unless we delay other questions. The time has come to be firm. to be just. to be proper and courteous to Japan. but to let Japan understand that we are simply exercising a right which she concedes. a right which we believe to be of the utmost importance to us as a Nation.
