I thank my colleague. I stated in the address to which I have referred that my committee. Congress itself. and I were all in favor of restricted immigration. I do not know how far we should go in this matter. or whether we should go as far as proposed by the Senator from North Carolina who preceded me. but I have a few statistics which I should like to give to the Senate. I do not know how long the Senator from North Carolina had been speaking at the time I entered the Chamber. but when I did so he was presenting some statistics in regard to immigration. Many misstatements have been made in public discussions with regard to immigration and naturalization. and many statements and statistics have been presented which are not true. according to Information which I get from the Department of Labor. I do not think it makes much difference whether or not more aliens are going out of the country than are coming in. We axe glad to have them go out if they wish to return to their old homes. and still restrictions should apply to those who are coming in here.
