It has been recognized by all countries in the world that each and every nation for itself miut determine whom it will admit to its shores to come in contact with its own people. More than that. If the situation were reversed the Empire of .1apan would take exactly the position we are proposing to take in this bill. Why do I say that? Because when Japan was threatened with unlimited immigration coming from China she herself restricted Chinese immigration coming into Japan to the business classes and the merchant classes. and removed Chinese immigration from competition with the labor of Japan. I do not say this In any way to reflect on the Japanese people. They are a great people.
