Many tell us that one of the troubles with agriculture at this time Is that our farms are producing too much. These cheap Mexicans are helping to aggravate this condition. When we apply the quota law as provided in the Box bill we are rendering a service to our country. and we are really assisting the real honesttogoodness farmer who toils through the lolg hot days to feed the world. The class of immigration which would be excluded by this bill are not worth anything as citizens. even if they coul becotIe citizens. They are decidedly a liability and not an asset. They do not build schoolhouses and churches. nor do they contribute anything worth while to the community or to the country. If we are to keel) our Nation great and strong and preserve our Government and its institutions and transmit the blessings of liberty to those who are to come after us. we must look well to our citizenship. In order to show you how tile people of my district feel about this immigration matter. and especially about the bill which is how pending before you. Introduced by ly colleague. lHon. JOHN C.
