President. for 10 years I have advocated the policy presented by my colleague . There are so many conflicting reports about how many people are coming into the United States that something ought to be done to find out definitely just what the situation is in the United States. If we shall adopt his amendment and shut out all immigrants for five years. there will be no excuse for anybody to come over and say. "I came in under the quota plan." There will not be any quota plan. as far as that goes. for at least five years. if this amendment goes into effect. Then we can keep out everybody. But when some now come over on the ships and land in New York and at other ports. they bring in with them aliens who have no right to come. and I believe that New York is the worst place on the earth for smuggling them in.
