Mr. Speaker and gentlemen. if it were in order to amend this bill. one of the matters I would like to have ascertained is how many Americans during the last two or three years have been supplanted and left without work by tens of thousands or scores of thousands of imported alien laborers. This unemployment situation is some two or three years old and shows signs of becoming worse. I would like also to have the bureau ascertain why it is. and why it has been. that though your committee has reported measures designed to relieve the situation by checking the incoming of alien laborers from Mexico. the West Indies. South America. and Canada. more than one such measure got strangled to death in the Rules Committee. and this House thereby denied the right to vote for something which would have brought some measure of bona fide relief. I would also want to know why a body that is actually. bona fide. trying to relieve the situation. will suppress the main relief measures available.
