I do not stand here to claim that the bill which I had the honor to introduce will exclude all bad men from this country. I do not claim that occasionally a good man will not be kept out and a bad one let in. but I think it is a rational and on the whole the best test that we can apply to the conditions that exist today. Tam perfectly well aware that there are some people in this country who do not believe that we should have any restrictions whatever upon immigration. They would be entirely willing that this country should be made even a penal colony. which is the obvious and one of the first uses to which newly discovered countries have been put in the past. I shall not attempt to convdnce such persons.
