Now. Mr. President. in the conference report there was presented for consideration a feature which had never been comisidered by either the House or the Senate in so far as the educational test is concerned. and so abhorrent to the sense of the Senate was the exclusion of the wife. while admitting the parent or the grandparent of the illiterate immigrant. that before the point of order made by me could be passed upon by the Senate the distinguished Senators submitting the report withdrew it and asked for a further conference between the House and the Senate to cure this defect. to cure this ill. which it seems the conferees had not properly regarded. Without commenting further in this connection. I will state that we are now met with another conference report. that I will proceed now to consider. which has remedied only one feature of the bill which the Senate instructed the conferees to remedy in other respects.
