It had to do this against the influence and advice of the State Department. The Congress said. "We will regulate this question." and as soon as Congress acted the question was settled. I. as one member of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization and as a Member of this House. wonder what is to become of the Philippine question. They are a very numerous people and a wideawake people. We do not want to see a repetition between Americans and them of those unfortunate experiences which have occurred heretofore between our people and other orientals.
