I do so for a number of reasons and I shall try to set them forth in a series. First. this issue involved in the dispute that is now taking place on the Senate floor is one primarily affecting the farmers and not the labor unions. Second. the immigration bill under which imported labor would be brought into our country requires that they be brought in only when there is a finding that they are necessary to supply a farm labor want. Third. the bringing in of farm workers from foreign countries does not mean that they will remain here permanently as a force competing with domestic labor. Those are the primary reasons why I support the Holland amendment.
