Gentlemen. you can see from this demonstration that the immigration question is a burning question. I am always glad to see this question discussed here on the floor of this House. because It is always of vital interest to the Amierican people. I have raised the question of the quota from Mexico. which affects people to the south of us. because Mexicans are now coming into Texas and other cottongrowing States. and that deeply affects our cotton problem. That interferes with us in the other cottongrowing States and produces conditions that are not fair to us. I hope we will gradually work up to the place where we will vote for laws that will exclude the alien ind give preference to Americans.
