Mr. Speaker. those who oppose acts of Congress restricting immigration talk much about regulating this important problem by treaties or agreements. These suggestions come from several groups favoring the liberal admission of alien peoples. but I have rever heard or read them from those who fear and seek to guard against the peril which arises from the migrations of all the tongues and tribes of the earth to America. Since the Johnson bill has been pending. one writer. voicing violent opposition to the legislation. has declared that the migrations of men should be regulated by international agreements in connection with the League of Nations. or some similar agency. on the groand that immigrants are international population. It is said that the prejudices of the people of one country should not prompt them to exclude the homeseeking millions who are fleeing from the miseries of other countries. Americas policy In this heretofore has been to consult the present and future interests of her own people.
