I appreciate that Senators have many duties. and that they may be called from the Chamber. I shall not consider it a discourtesy if they are not able to remain and hear what I have to say. -However. I hope they will be able and disposed to hear me in presenting my views concerning one phase of the larger immigration problem. a phase which I consider of prime importance. I may hereafter repeat myself. but I wish to say at the very outset that the views I shall express are not the result of hostility toward any people on the earth. assuredly not in hostility toward the Philippine people. I wish them all liberty. independence. prosperity. and happiness. but I conceive It to be our duty to consider first the liberty. the independence. the prosperity. and the happiness of our own people.
