La Follette>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Coolidge>>Davis

I'd still take Davis as a second choice, albeit a very distant second choice over Coolidge. He was better on immigration.

Davis gets a bad reputation as "one of those conservative Democrats" because of his various positions on issues relating to the South, but on matters of trusts/monopolies, immigration and a number of other issues he was certainly not conservative relative to Coolidge.
Did Davis ever express an opinion on immigration?

I don't know off hand, but it is hard to top Coolidge signing what was probably the most restrictive immigration law in history in terms of limiting it across the board.
What is the difference between the 1921 and 1924 immigration acts?
