I earnestly hope that Congress will take immediate action in this regard, as recommended by the Secretary of War.
I would rather cut off my right hand than do anything to disturb the business of this country.
This would impose a heavy burden on the administrative branch of the Government, create disastrous uncertainty in commercial circles, and lead to a burdensome amount of litigation.
