Mr. President. any such positive warning from such an authoritative source can not be safely ignored by a Senate contemplating judicial determination. Surely we can consider. set off by itself. the question of whether or not this -bill is inimical to the American merchant marine without being accused. directly or indirectly. of having an interest in breaking down new immigration restrictions. The question raised by the pending motion. submitted by the senior Senator from Pennsylvania. relates exclusively to the question of whether or not we shall do something which probably is inimical to the American merchant marine. It specifically relates to employment because there is no maritime employment whatsoever unless we keep our ships upon the sea.
