What is the difference between letting foreign labor come in and compete with us under our own flag and permitting their products to come in on a basis which puts our products at a disadvantage? The net result is precisely the same. Therefore. I submit that at the very moment when we would deny any relaxation in immigration we certainly should deny any relaxation in other differentials which make it possible for us to retain such employment and such industrial activity as we still preserve for ourselves. Mr. President. I submit that in the very theory of the shorter work week bill itselfnamely. the theory that we are not to reduce wages but that we are to reduce time and maintain wagesit is necessary. for the protection of the genius of the bill itself. to attach the amendment which it is proposed by the Senator from Florida and the Senator from West Virginia to attach.
