Mr. President. I should like to say. in connection with this resolution. that I have no desire to supplant the measure which is now before the Senate in order to consider the immigration question. but I should like to see the hour hurried when we may have some assurance as to the consideration the subject will receive after the farm relief bill and after the census and reapportionment bills shall have been disposed of. The Committee on Immigration of the Senate. to which was referred a number of resolutions and bills having reference to -the repeal or postponement of the nationalorigins clause of the immigration act of 1924. hurried its action and determined that It would not. as a committee. approve any of the resolutions or bills for repeal that had been submitted to it. The committee was unanimous in determining to dispose of the matter as quickly as it was possible to do. The result was that the resolutions and bills before it were voted down by a vote of 4 to 2.
