I have said. and repeat. that I would have America come home and remain out of the Orientnot overlooking the welfare of the Philippine people. Mr. President. there was one thing in the message of the President which I very heartily approve. He spoke about the exclusion of the Filipinos from continental United States. Years ago I introduced into this body a bill proposing to stop the coming hither of Filipino laborers. Such a bill is now pending in a committee of the Senate. When the Harris immigration bill was before us. I offered an amendment to exclude Filipino labor. I had intended to devote some little time to that point. but for manifest reasons I merely allude to it to add this.
