Referring to the State of New York. I find that the entire State in round numbers contained. under the 1920 census. 1.600.000 aliens. and that 1.200.000 of these persons were in the city of New York. If the Legislature of the State of New York could be permitted to redistrict the State and take into consideration the citizens or naturalized citizens. New York City would thereby lose representatives in proportion. and the gentleman who just left the floor explained that Missouri had a number of districts where her Congressmen did not represent a fair share in proportion. but there are very few aliens in the State of Missouri.
