Representation in the New York Legislature is based on citizenship. If this bill is constitutional. we could say to New York that it must base its representation in the legislature on population. thereby giving New York City firm control over the legislature. Some Western States prohibit Asiatics from voting. Today there is a strong movement to break down all our immigration laws and let all the peoples in the earth come to our fair land. If the States are not given the full control over their elections. we might awaken some day and find our Congress controlled by aliens. There Is no denying the fact that this measure would never have reached the floor of the House If it had not been for the two major political parties playing for votes.
