Rawleigh Co.. of Freeport. Ill.. who in the past has been a financial angel in Wisconsin political campaigns and who has denmanded a repeal of or reduction in tariffs on the products which he uses. but has never raised his voice in any instance before committees of Congress or in the propaganda papers of his tariff bureau in favor of reducing or repealing the high tariffs which protect the products of his industry. Wisconsin is an industrial and dairy State. and our people require and demand a restrictive. nondiscriminative immigration law and a protective tariff sufficiently high to protect the labor and industry of our people from unfair foreign competition. The time which I have been able to obtain today will only permit the presentation of a few of the iniquities existing in Wisconsin. which even standing alone prove without a shadow of a doubt that H. R. 1922 and House Resolution 69. which I have heretofore mentioned. should be passed by the House of Representatives without any unnecessary delay.
