My friend from New York is an able. profound lawyer. but not so good a parliamentarian. Rumors have reached me that at a meeting of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization yesterday the chairman of the committee. the gentleman from New York . attempted to take action which he thought would prevent me from filing this petition to discharge his committee from further consideration of my bill to stop immigration. but when he looks up the rules he will find that said action was futile. and in no way stopped me from filing this petition to discharge. and my discharge petition is filed. and it is now on the Clerks desk. Those who are in favor of stopping immigration and taking back from aliens 12.000.000 jobs that are held by foreigners and giving them to unemployed Americans so that every American will have an American job. I hope will sign this petition to discharge the committee. If enough sign the petition I guarantee that I will get this bill out of Chairman DICKSTEINS "death house ". as he called it. and bring it to a vote in this House.
