Your committee has its own convictiois about the meaning of tlat law and what construction ought to be given it. but it does not seem proper for Congress to array itself against what the courts have done so far. We hope that any error they have nmade will be rectified. but the breach developed by this decision is a serious one. As the gentlenman from Michigan said. some 2.000 have already been admitted. and great numbers of others may be admitted in the course of a few months or a few years. both from the northern and southern borders. and also from the coastlines. While gentlemen might not be willing to go along with me to what they regard is an extreme length in dealing with immigration from Mexico and other countries. I think this legislation is essentially sound. and if you want to malitain the contractlabor provisions of your law as they now are. you ought to support this bill.
