I do not know how far this matter has been considered by the committee. Under the bill. and also largely under the existing law. certain contract labor is now permitted to enter. For instance. right in connection with what the Senator has just read there is this proviso: That skilled labor may be imported if labor of like kind unemployed can not be found in this country. That is a pretty wide and liberal provision. and one. it seems to me. where there would be practically no limit upon the admission. wherever those who had control of the matter sought to exercise a liberal discretion.
