Mr. Speaker. I supported in the Committee on Foreign Affairs the exclusion act of 1892. known as the Geary act. and I voted for it in the House of Representatives. and I am satisfied that it is the duty of Congress to pass the bill now being considered. Its passage will not damage the Geary act. but will help to make it effective. The right of the Government of the United States through the legislative department to exclude aliens from its territory who are dangerous to its Deace and prosperity and a menace to its institutio..s has been established by the Supreme Court of the United States. and the right by Congressional enactment to abrogate and annul the provisions of any treaty made by the United States with any foreign country is also clearly established by the decisions of the same high tribunal.
