I only have a few minutes left. If I have time I will be glad to yield later. The demand of some of our leading international bankers. industrialists. and others. supported by a number of economists. to further the freetrade policy. to enlarge the importation of goods. produced by forced labor (Russia). low paid. and child labor of Europe and Asia. and the cry for a more liberal immigration policy can only lead to further unemployment and demoralize our economic. industrial. social. and political structure. Those who argue that the way to cure unemployment in the United States is to consume more of the products of foreign labor underestimate the intelligence of the American people. Such propaganda bespeaks the desire of international capitalists. who wish to lower the standard of wages and living in this country to that of foreign lands in order that their vast foreign investments may be protected.
