Washington, I). C., April 7.—Urg
ing more restrictions on immigration
! than is recommended in the pending
j legislation before ' the senate, and
offering a proposal to stop all immi
gration for five years, Senator W. J.
Harris, of Georgia, spoke in the sen
ate this afternoon. As a member of
he immigration committee he assist
ed in the preparation of the re -‘c
tive legislation presented, but advo
rated further measures to curtail the
flow of foreigners into the United
Rates.
“For the first time in the history
of this great country U

Americanization of thwse thirty

much vaunted melting-pot has n.lmol

ideals decs not fuse the huge chun
of foreign stock, and as a result vj
have rural settlements and urb:ta
communities ivvhere the people co:
wf in foreign tongues. It is i. \vq
known that large numbers oi the
send parts of their earnings hack
their native countries from month
month, year to year, and they the
selves later return with all they hq
saved during- their sojourn in
erica.”
Senator Harris said he had no
iudice against the foreigner Sat
?ame to the United States withnis
mind made up to become an Aiwri
?an, hut when the foreign stocH as
it (hies now, exceed in numberpflhp

molested. We cannot lose sight of
the future vjjhen we consider this
measure—the very salvation of our
country is at stake. This will not bo
the same American unless we change
our immigration policy. We must
think only of the future of America.”
Senator Harris said no reflection on
the American citizens of foreign birth
was meant iwlicn lie voiced the undis¬
puted fact that many of those who
have come to this country do not
measure up to the average of the peo¬
ple of their native land. “Our coun¬
try will remain great as long as out
people are so, but we can not con
inue great if we allow inferior people
(ill up this country. We must have

the present percentage quota should
he reduced to one percent, if we do
not entirely prohibit immigration for
the time being,” commented Senator
Harris.
