I have done this in order to get immediate action on the noncontroversial matter in S. 409 as reported by the committee. nevertheless. I hope the committee will restudy my bills: S. 407. To further reduce immigration. to authorize the exclusion of any alien whose entry into the United States is inimical to the public interest. to prohibit the separation of families through the entry of aliens leaving dependents abroad. and for other purposes. S. 408. To provide for the national defense by the registration and fingerprinting of aliens in the United States. and for other purposes. S. 409. To protect American labor and stimulate the employment of American citizens on American jobs by restricting immigration for the next 10 years. S. 410. To provide for the deportation of aliens subsisting on relief under certain circumstances. S. 411. To provide for the deportation of aliens inimical to the public interest. In conclusion. I earnestly and respectfully urge upon my colleagues who are members of the Committee on Immigration of the Senate to report promptly the substitute bill in regard to which we can have no difference of opinion. because it merely suspends new immigration of persons who have no claims upon any alien lawfully admitted to the United States. The substitute simply upholds the basic principle of numerical restriction upon immigration into the United States under the quotas. as provided for by the act of 1924. with broad humanitarian consideration for aliens of good standing now in this country. I now introduce and send to the desk my proposed substitute bill for proper reference.
