Mr. Speaker and gentlemen. I believe there is no Member of this House who has paid any attention to the question of Mexican immigration who does not know that I have devoted a great deal of attention to efforts to stop it We had hearings for some weeks in which I presented every available fact in support of my bill . which proposes to rigidly restrict Mexican immigration. If anybody will read those hearings he will see whether or not the gentleman from Texas was active in urging the passage of that necessary legislation. I have not come here to discuss it. gentlemen. because that is not the question here involved. The gentleman from Texas believes that that immigration ought to be restricted. and that when the country knows the menace to which it is exposed by this mass peon Mexican immigration that will be done.
