112 NATIONAL ORIGINS PROVISION OF IMMIGRATION LAW
intended, Congress will be pledged each session by the whittlers who, for alien
reasons, do not want the immigration question settled once and for all time
as an American policy but want to keep it an open matter, with the fond
expectation that eventually they can break down the entire restrictive immigra-
tion policy of our Government. I sincerely hope that you will make my views
Known to the Congress.
The Crairman. Who was that?
Senator Reep. Who signed it?
Mr. Lrovp. That was from Harry A. J ung, of Chicago.
The Crairman. Please state to me again what association or
organization that was.
Mr. Lroyp. He was general manager of the American Vigilance
Intelligence Federation.
The Crarrman. What is that, please?
Mr. Lroyn. I think it is an Americanization society that gives
particular attention to the questions of the foreign groups, divided
allegiance of certain groups, and perhaps revolutionary radicals in
certain others,
Senator Reep. Do you know Mr. J ung?
Mr. Lroxp. I have met him; I do not know him well.
Senator Reep. What is his ancestry ¢
Mr. Lroyp. He is of German ancestry.
Senator Resp. When did his ancestors immigrate to this country ?
Mr. Lroyp. I understand they came in 1848, or thereabouts; about
that period.
Then there is a communication from Mr. Lewis. Mr. Lewis felt
that in his testimony he was trying to bring out certain relations of
facts and figures, and that with the questions and interruptions per-
haps he did not hold his train of thought entirely, and so he wrote
out a short supplementary statement, which I will file. It is too long
to read; it is about three pages in length.
The Crarman. You want it inserted in the record?
Mr. Lyon. Yes; I would like permission to add it to his statement,
The CuarmaN. Very well; it is so ordered.
(The supplementary statement of Mr. Lloyd, referred to, will be
found at the end of his original oral statement.)
Mr. Lroyp. Mr. Steele, will you address the committee supple-
mental to vour recent teleeram ?
HARRY A. JUNG.
