My information is that the Committee on Immigration met one morning and decided that they had looked into this subject sufficiently. or that it had been adequately studied in another Congress. that hearings were not necessary. and that a report was not necessary. Therefore the committee took the bill as reported to the Senate In the last Congress and placed it on the Calendar. In contradistinction to that. let me point out that In this Congress the House Committee on Immigration held extensive hearings on the subject. and. after careful consideration. reported out a bill that is not offensive to any country on this hemisphere. because it applies equally to all of them. The Harris bill makes a distinction between Mexico and all Latin America and Canada. It permits Canadian immigrants and immigrants from Newfoundland to come into the United States without any restriction whatever.
