The great country to the north of you has no real friendship for you. Although they have tried to prove that what we have said in the past was not correct. this very. act of theirs shows we were correct. that they have no real friendship for you. that they do not regard you as real brothers. Although there are practically none of you going into the United States as immigrants. as laborers. they propose to put you on the same quota basis with countries which are ready to send hundreds of thousands of immigrants. who are ready tQ compete with their labor supply." In addition to the commercial aspect of this situation. there is an aspect of promoting peace. in the Western Hemisphere. Senators will realize that several times during the last 50 years we have been called upon to act as arbiters in boundary disputes. In the boundary dispute between Argentina and Chile President Cleveland was asked to act as the arbiter.
