I read them hurriedly. He says: But in the effort to carry out the policy of excluding Chinese laborers. Chinese coolies. grave injustice and wrong have been done by this nation to the people of China. and therefore ultimately to this nation itself. Chinese students. business and professional men of all kindsnot only merchants. but bankers. doctors. manufacturers. professors. travelers. and the likeshould be encouraged to come here and treated on precisely the same footing that we treat students. business men. travelers. and the like of other nations. That is all I am asking. I have understood that there have been requirements under the immigration law. or the rules established by the Immigration Bureau. that every Chinaman who comes here. whatever he may claim to be his purpose or business. and to whatever class he may claim to belong. shall have three photographs made of himself. and that he has to be measured by the Bertillon system. and all that kind of outrageous invasion of private rights.
