However. there are times in other jurisdictions. like the Panama Canal Zone and other insular possessions. where exceptions to this principle may have to be allowed. I am satisfied that the President will only make such modifications in this rule necessary by reason of emergency. I feel sure that within a reasonable time the authorities hope to eliminate all alien labor on these Government projects and employ only citizens of the United States. I trust that this program will go forward without delay. I insist that every safeguard be thrown around the working men and women of this country. so that in the great rush and excitement incidental to the military activities all of the splendid things that I have been fighting for throughout my legislative career will not be suspended or infringed.
