Speech #590164665

The principal points of difference. so far as they have not been discussed in time House when the bill was before the committee. have been discussed this morning on the point of order. The changes in that part of the bill which came before the House at the last session are very few. The matters in difference were the educational test. from which the Senate has receded. the form of the bill. as to which the Senate has receded. the commission section. to which the Senate has agreed with an aiendinent. the Littauer naendment. to which the House receded. and the socalled " head tax." which as it passed tile Senate was $5 and as it passed the House $2. and on this matter there has been a colnpromise of $4. The administrative changes. about 100 in number. meet with universal aplroval. These changes were very largely the result of the work of time gentleman from Massachtusetts. my colleague on the committee DNER]. and to him more than anyone else is due the fact that after this bill becomes a law tile laws regulating inimigration will be simpler. better. and more etlicacious.
