I suppose I have to talk to tie galleries. as there are not very many Senators present. Mr. President. I have studied the immigration problem for years. and I have tried to be fair to all people. When Senators say that Englislmen. Irishmen. Swedes. or Norwegians are better than the other races of Europe I do not agree with them. We have had Columbus. we have had Marconi. and we have had Caruso from Italy. have we not? I wish I had the silver tongue of the candidate for President of the United States to whomi I have referred and who spoke here the other day in order to try to explain to the people of this country what I mean.
