They intend to bring Into our country hundreds of thousands of foreigners and put them upon these farms once owned and cultivated by patriotic American farmers. These foreigners to be placed upon farms owned by the feudal lords of the East are to grow crops cheaply for their masters. which are to be sold in competition with farm products produced by American farmers. Thank God they have got to change the immigration law before they can do such an unfair and unAmerican thing. I shall fight such a proposition to the uttermost. Senators. you now have the opportunity to do something that will put hope in the hearts of the distressed farmers of America.
