Technically. there can be no doubt that in a situation like that the powers of the conferees are very large. if not unlimited. In the second place. Mr. President. this amendment is not out of order in itself. It is a mere modification of a section which provides for certain exceptions in regard to admission to this .country and for collection of a head tax. It is merely the application of the exceptions. such as are stated previously in the bill as to persons coming from Canada or. from Mexico. It is a simple extension to ileet another case in which entry to this country must necessarily be deflned.
