I can go on and quote other portions of inconsistencies by both Mr. Trevor and Mr. Hill. as well as others. but I do not wish to burden this House too much. and will only ask you to read the hearings before the Committee on Immigration and satisfy yourselves of the accuracy of my statements. What changed the mind of the Senate. particplarly Senator REED. who fought so much for the national origin. to ask for an extension of one year? The answer to that is that although the Senator from Pennsylvania thought he had a gold brick in the nationalorigin scheme. found that it was a lemon. He discovered that he fooled himself. He found out. after the figures were given to the President. that instead of restricting immigration as against Russia. Italy. and other parts of southern Europe it would. on the contrary. benefit them. In other words. as a concrete example.
