As a member of this committee I also discovered and corrected certain extravagances and graft. which saved the taxpayers of the United States over $200.000 per annum. and probably much more. I voted at all times to uphold the eighteenth amendment and every other part of the Constitution. I voted for the strongest immigration restriction. Every foreigner that comes to thi country must either have a job created for him or must takE some Americans job. or be without a job and on the public. neither of which is desirable. I also took a prominent part in the effort to thwart the attempt of the Secretary of State. encouraged by the President to bring about hostilities between this country and Nicaragua Members of both House and Senate felt that the real purpost was to interfere in the affairs of that country and to secure tht presidency for one "Diaz." who assured the repayment of cer tain indebtedness to certain European and American capitalists Any person who has invested in any of the Central Americar
