The Senator from Georgia presented many objections to the bill. the committee accepted a number of very valuable suggestions he made. and the amendments which are in the bill are very largely the result of his suggestions. There is a condition under which there are in this country this number of people. There is talk about breaking down immigration. and about the patriotic societies objecting to it. that it is something which will destroy America. and all that. No honest. candid discussion of this subject can present that point of view. because certainly nobody can claim that the permission to a department to deal humanely with 2.852 people is going to break down the standards of America. If the opponents of the bill think that America is on such tenuous ground that the enactment of a measure of this kind is going to destroy it.
