Speech #600013655

I was not making a speech with any idea of politics. I do not think immigration is a political question. but the Senator from Georgia was asking about the educational test. and I gave him the history of it. It is simply a fact that the bill carrying the educational test. as it is called. passed both Houses of Congress and was vetoed by President Cleveland. I do not remember the exact year. It was during his second term. and at the time when I was chairman of the Immigration Connittee of the Senate. It subsequently passed the Senate and was lost in the Housea Republican House.
