President Collidge Favors Greater Latitude in Admittance of Relatives

In his message to Congress, President Coolidge touching upon the question of immigration, stated:

“I should like to see the administrative features of this law rendered a little more humane for the purpose of permitting those already here a greater latitude in securing admission of members of their own families. But I believe this law in principle is necessary and sound, and destined to increase greatly the public welfare. We must maintain our own economic position, we must defend our own national integrity.”
