I regard it as the very best possible bill that could be presented. So far as I am concerned personally. I have no faith in the treaty itself. I never did have any faith in it. I have no fiith in itnow. I believe it will be a failure in so far as it may be considered as a means of prohibiting Chinese immigration. The treaty as it came to the Senate originally and before it was amended by the Senate was. in my judgment. a step backward. and a long step backward from theposition we occupied under existing treaties and under existing laws. As amended by the Senate. however.
