Speech #760252293

Let me conclude with this thought: There are a great many hobgoblins conjured up in the brains of certain Members. They are afraid we are going to have a flood of foreigners descend upon us. They are afraid it is goingto get us into war. This bill does not affect the immigration and naturalization laws. It will not bring in a single person or individual who is not now permitted to come in under the immigration and naturalization laws. It will not be effective unless all governments consent in advance thereto. I have no sympathy with the plea that because all children cannot be saved. none should be saved.
