Mr. Speaker and gentlemen of the House. the President said that "we must either abandon our theory of patriotism- or abandon this bill." and that "patriotism which is bought and paid for is not patriotism)" I am one of the few Members of this HEouse who voted with the President on his Japanese immigration policy. but I can not follow this veto. I shall vote to pay adjusted- compensation to the men of the last war. I saw Maryland men of the One hundred and fifteenth rn-. fantry working as carpenters at Camp McClellaa in Alabama In 1917 at soldiers pay. while across the road men not in the service got $10 a day for doing exactly the same sort of workd.
