Is that right? Mr. President. there is no one obliged to execute the laWs of the United States who can go through the labyrinth of laws. regulations. and decisions relating to Chinese exclusion wtithout often becoming confused. Was it not the duty of the Treasury Department to ask. as it has done. to have them codified into one comprehehsive. compact. scientific bill? The Platt amendment simply adds one more law to the mass upon the statute books. while the bill proposed by the committee embraces all laws. rules. and regulations now in force upon this question. and that is all it does.
