Coherence

My paragraph that I chose for coherence, from Takaki:

"The demand for Mexican exclusion resonated among Anglo workers.  Viewing Mexicans as a competitive labor force, they clamored for the closing of the border.  In 1910, the American Federation of Labor's Advocate asked: 'Is it a pretty sign to see men, brawny American men with callouses on their hands and empty stomachs - sitting idly on benches in the plaza, while slim-legged peons with tortillas in their stomachs, work in the tall buildings across the way?  DO you prefer the name Fernadez, alien, to the name, James, citizen, on your payroll?' Five years later, the Advocate again denounced the employment of Mexicans as cheap laborers:  "True AMericans do not want or advocate the importation of any people who cannot be absorbed into full citizenship, who cannot eventually be raised to our highest social standard.  Clearly, race was being used as a weapon by the American Federation of Labor:  Mexicans not only constituted 'cheap labor' but were regarded as incapable of becoming fully American."
