I shall not read it again. but it appears on page 17 of the report of the. conferees. and is to the effect that the President of the United States himself shall exclude laborers from other countries that come here under false pretenses. as it were. and that the exercise of that right shall rest in the discretion of the President alone. Let us look at that a moment. I read from the Washington 1lerald of this morning a statement purporting to have been issued by Mayor Schmitz. of San Francisco. That statement is as follows: We have come to a satisfactory understanding upon the assumption lhat Congress will pass the amendment to the immigration bill introduced February 13. Until this amendment Is enacted into law we shall make no statement as to what the understanding is.
