Excerpt from Immigration and Other Interests of Prescott Farnsworth Hall Men who do their work and hold their peace And have no fear to die. Such a man was Prescott F. Hall and the writer doubts whether Prescott Hall himself appreciated the magni tude of his work or the debt of obligation he placed upon his countrymen. Certainly during his life he showed no signs of it nor indicated the slightest impatience at the scant appreciation by the nation at large for his work. The League for the Restriction of Immigration was not only of Prescott Hall's creation but it was he who kept it alive during the long decades of apathy and neglect from its friends and hostility from its enemies. Thanks to Mr. Hall's work, never did a legislative measure receive such huge majorities time and again, when restrictive bills differing in form but of Similar purpose finally came before Congress.
