I propose to criticize it in its own citadel. I will defend it against attack from without.. but I reserve the right to criticize it from within. I fear there is a "spirit pervading our country today reflected in these immigration bills that is a mlenace to the countrya spirit of intolerance and bigotry not only to religious but to races. Take the first bill. relating to the deportation of alien criminals. Has anybody ever said anything here about establishing a penal colony for the deportation of citizen criminals and putting out of the country the criminal citizen? Take another bill before us today. the Box bill. relating to immigrants coming over our borders. It represents a spirit of superior intolerance to our neighbors on the north and south. Oh.
