President. I always like to defer to any suggestion which may be made by the distinguished Senator from Florida. but this bill is of extreme importance. and it should be enacted at the earliest moment. Evidence has been submitted that at one time. as a result of this defect in the immigration laws. as many as 45 ships have been tied up in on. harbor in this country. The War Shipping Administration is most insistent that the measure be considered as early as possible. the State Department has approved it and urged that early action be taken on the bill. The committee canvassed the situation to which the Senator from Florida refers.
