"In referr: ing to the wasteful expenditure of the immigration department he showed that $202,000 had been ex- pended in bringing 6,800 immigrants from Europe. He said the absur- dity of claiming twenty thousand arrivals from the United States, as the result of the Department's labor, was too absurd to deserve a moments considration. But if the arrivals from phe United States could be claimed as the result of the two agents there, then tho heavy expen- diture in Europe to bring out less than 7,000 was indefensible. Ife mentioned this to show the absur- dity of the Government's claim. -- Ho reiterated his statement that the Government had increased the con- trollat:le expenditure at the rate of $600,000 per annum since the change of the Administration, and contended this remained unchallenged.
