Speaker. I understand such to be the case. except those who come from Canada. Cuba. and Mexico. but for the gentlemans information I will tell him that I believe there is a great deal of controversy about that question as to just what is the meaning of the words "in transit-" in the immigration law. That is entirely apart from the subjectmatter of this bill. however. The question with regard to just what the words "in transit" mean has not yet been definitely determined. whether a tourist returning by the same route is in transit or not is a matter now under discussion with the Commissioner of Immigration. But all this has no reference to the bill now under consideration.
