I am certain it means the same thing to the other Members of the Senate. It has been our form of government which has made this Nation the greatest nation on the face of the earth. It is a form of government which peimits the poor boy of today to become the homeowner of tomorrow. a form of government which permits the farmhand of today to be the farm owner of tomorrow. a form of government which permits the poor immigrant to become a citizen. Who on this floor does not have ancestors who at some time were poor immigrants? This Nation is made up of all nationalities. I should like to know at the moment how many different nationalities are represented in the galleries. I say this is a form of government which permits the poor immigrant of today to become the successful citizen of tomorrow. That is America. I. for one. shall not vote for any schemes. either domestic or national. unless I can by my vote make a contribution to the continuance of the type of government I have described. not only in our own Nation. but in nations throughout the world.
