Then. ultimately. both may be considered. I desire to say. too. that the Senator from Arkansas has touched upon a most important problem. Some of us who were members of the committee were doubtful about dealing with the immigration problem of Filipinos to Hawaii. and. in the fear that injury might be done. the problem probably was not considered by the committee ultimately. But it would not be amiss at all. as the Senator suggests. if the question were taken up some time during the progress of this bill and thrashed out upon the floor of the Senate. The immigration provisions now in the bill with which immediately I am concerned are those relating to immigration to the mainland of the United States. as we presume to call it. They do not relate. as the Senator from Arkansas has indicated and the Senator from New Mexico has said. to immigration to Hawaii. My understanding is that Hawaii has received some considerable sums from the Reconstruction Finance CorporationI may be in error in this. and I hope I shall be corrected if I ambecause of conditions of unemployment now existing in Hawaii.
