Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the committee. there has been a great deal of discussion upon the question of emergency in the District of Columbia. and the city of -New York has been put on a parallel with Washington. The gentlemen who were present and heard the controversy on the question of immigration will remember that it was pointed out that there were 800.000 immigrants who immigrate into the city of New York every year. During the war and just after the war. those of you who were here know that in some of the rooms they had four or five cots to accommodate those who visited Washington. Today you walk along the streets of Washington and you find signs "Apartments for rent." "Buildings for sale." You did not see that three years ago.
