As long as the doors of Mexico are open to laborers for railroads and beet growerson starvation wagesdo not talk about protecting American labor. The conditions under which Mexicans are working in the beet fields are nothing short of inhuman and disgraceful. The growers frankly told you that they wanted that kind of labor. They want the peon labor that will huddle in huts and accept contracts whereby they work whole families under the contract system at ridiculously low wages. That is the condition possible under the immigration policy. That is what is destroying the American standard of wages. and not permitting these people to live up to any kind of a standard of living. Let us be perfectly frank about this.
