Under the Inexorable law of supply and demand overproduction of many agricultural commodities has helped to bring the American farmer to -!rief. This is true of cotton and rice. Though overproduction i.. already causing distress. the Government is being asked to spend enormous sums on new irrigation and reclamation projects. It unwisely gives preference to "skilled farmer" immigrtnts trying to come from Europe. I have helped to prepare and report and hope to help pass at amiendment to the immigration law checking this folly. I would end it ifI could. Tells of thousands of Mexican peons are being brought to grub and break and cultivate semiarid and other western and southwestern lands to raise cotton.
