He was a splendid grand master of tie Colorado Masons. He played the game of life on the level and on the square. To lmy mind. by far the greatest service he rendered to our country was his many years of desperately hard. painstaking. conscientious and alert work on the Immigratiom Committee. Every ounce of his strength of mind and body was genuinely loyal to Uncle Sam every minute of his 51 years. He loved his country. He was Americanminded. His whole soul believed in America for Americans. He made many splendid speeches in Congress and delivered hundreds of patriotic lectures throughout the country on the subject of the nationalorigins method of calculating the basis of immigration quotas. and he was a tower of strength in the long and persistent efforts that finally brought about our present immigration and naturalization laws. His great speech of April 5. 1924. has been quoted ever since for its force and learning. The public generaily have no idea of the courage. energy. and determination. day and night. year in and year out. that work required.
