If the $50.000.000 were proposed to be turned over to Armenians. to Belgians. refugees. and foreigners. I doubt whether there would be any debate upon the matter. However. when we propose to give it to Americans. there is a longdrawnout debate. I cannot understand that attitude of mind. I should like to say further to the Senator that here and there there may be some unworthy persons on the rolls. Of course. such persons will get on the rolls. but why punish the vast majority of innocent persons who are on the rolls because occasionally some unworthy person gets on the rolls?
