I see no reason. however. why we should give them any special consideration except to protect their persons and property as long as they remain aliens. I see no reason why we should be called uponto fight the battles of this country for aliens who will not become citizens. I am not seeking to take away any rights from the alien or any protection of the. law from him. The question which I raise now is. Is it fair that a man who is foreign born and does not become naturalized should be counted to determine the number of Representatives in Congress to which a State is entitled? Mr. President. it seems that it is unnecessary to discuss this matter further.
