Session #71 · 1929–31

Speech #710000134

Mr. Speaker and ladies and gentlemen of the House. by way of extension of remarks I shall attempt to answer some of the arguments advanced by the opponents to the nationalorigins system for establishing quotas in the session of March 3. It is to be regretted that a discussion of almost any immigration question excites personal and national animosities. The reason for this is that the immigration question is intensely human. It deals exclusively with humanity and the personal rights and privileges of human beings and their families. The discussion of the resolution under consideration in the session of the House on March 3. 1929. was on a high plane and was singularly free from personalities.
