If England would give the people of India some liberty. then we might be able to get some trade from them. In that case there would certainly. be more argument for the passage of this bill. When this bill came before the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization some months ago we held hearings and we took a vote on it. and we defeated it 10 to 6. It was defeated on its merits. not because of any confusion about what Great Britain would do or not do or like or not like. it -was defeated on its merits because the members of the committee did not think it was time to tear down our immigration laws. It is true that President Roosevelt endorsed the bill. It is also true that President Trumans secretary sent up a letter on it.
