But instead of that. they have separated the family so far away that it will take in some instances over 100 years before the child or the wife will be able to meet her husband or father in the United States who has been legally admitted. Mr. Chairman. under the present plan it was intended to suspend immigration. For what purpose? The purpose they told me was to help employment. If they can satisfy me as a reasonable man and present any evidence that the suspension of immigration is going to help employment. I for one will vote to suspend immigration. but. after making a proper analysis. I find that the claim of suspending immigration for the purpose of helping employment is nothing less than an imposition upon the American people. They do not want to suspend immigration to help employment. because immigration will not interfere with employment. Take southern and eastern Europe. No new blood is coming from there at all.
