Mr. President. the other day some debate was had with reference to a bill introduced by the senior Senator from Georgia regarding the restriction of immigration from Latin American countries. The testimony of the Secretary of State two years ago was that only 1 of those countries sent us any great number of immigrants. the other 18 Republics sending us practically none. Mexico being the only one with whose immigrants we are seriously concerned. A good many statements were made during the debate with regard to the importance of Mexican immigration as it concerns our own unemployment situation. Since then there has come to my attention an article in the Survey. by Paul S. Taylor. regarding the present status of immigration from Mexico which offers a great deal of new and unexpected light on the present situation. I ask unanimous consent that a portion of the article may be printed in the RECORD.
