The people who come from the coun-
tries named are frequently iiiteratc be.

so FAR as the Industrial conditions are
concerned | think the question has been
supericiaily considered
We need labor in this country and the
natives are unwilling to do the work which
the aliens come over to do.

and localities there are cong.sted Condi-
tons
Il, is equally true that in much larger
areas "" are practically without help.
While. according to the reports of the
Bureau Of immigration. about % per cent
of the incoming aliens are illiterate. the
census shows that among the foreign born
people of such States az Massachusetts
and New York. where most of the conges-
ton complained Of has taken place, the

Il am persuaded that this provision
of the bill is In principle of very great
consequence. and that 1t is based upon
II faliacy in undertaking To apply test
