We have 4.000.000 men on the Government pay roll and on the pay rolls of the 48 States. 10.000 municipalities. 3.100 counties. and thousands upon thousands of political subdivisions. If the American people want to open up the floodgates. particularly in view of the fact that our great President says that onethird of the people today in the United States are undernourished and improperly clothed. that is all right with me. I am becoming sick and tired of the battle. Let the floodgates be opened. Let refugees and aliens from all over the world come to the United States. While we are opening the gates. let us open them to Ethiopia. China. and Japan.
