In the same bill they turn around and want to close the doors to the Filipinos. The flag waves in the Philippine Islands. and yet they classify the Filipinos in the law as aliens. I say they are going too far. At the same time our Secretary of State. Mr. Stimson. in testimony given before the Senate committee. said that his great office takes the credit for reducing. immigration by 97 per cent. without any law at all. If that is so. what is the necessity for a suspension of immigration? Let me tell you how he does it. It is almost a tragedy.
