President. I do not desire to detain the Senate at this late hour when the bill is practically finished. My only hope was that the committee would be willing to let the amendment remain in the bill and go into conference. and if the chairman of the Committee on Immigration is not prepared to agree to some legislation in this bill. it can be dropped. I certainly should not ask that it be retained in his absence. but I think if we could let it go to conference. it would give an opportunity to draft a suitable amendment and one which would conform to the wishes of the chairman and of the committee itself.
