Chairman. this is the position of California and myself. particularly. because I am a native son of that great State. I started 20 years ago to fight the encroachment of Orientals into my State. We have fought the fight and successfully. and we have prevented further encroachment by immigration of Chinese or Japanese into our State. Now. Mr. Chairman. they will come to Congress and ask for a modification of these immigration laws. I warn you that the Japanese are going into the next conference in London in 1936. and they are going to ask for one thing. They are going to ask for the elimination of the aircraft carrier and the naval aircraft division between navies.
